Immersive you say?

Plague Inc: Evolved on Steam
Plague Inc: Evolved is a unique mix of high strategy and terrifyingly realistic simulation. Your pathogen has just infected 'Patient Zero' - now you must bring about the end of human history by evolving a deadly, global Plague whilst adapting against everything humanity can do to defend itself.
We're still working but next weekend everything will likely shut down. Which make sense honestly.
Hopefully all the countries will do the same soon because this shit is stoppable only this way.
If you've got time, why not play through the Trails series? It's a wonderful little franchise with great characters and RPG mechanics.
Don't know why but Final Fantasy XII was the first game that popped in my mind. The PC port looks fantastic.
I'm glad I live in a country that cares more about pushing the economy along to appease corporate overlords than they do about people, so that won't happen here.
I'm enjoying Wolcen OP, check it out.

Sometimes people joke about bleak shit. What else am I supposed to do besides be paralyzed with fear?
There's a new league of Path of Exile starting Friday. You can spend absolute ages just grinding away in that game.
Time to install an epic strategy game! Those keep me going for weeks, and are the kind of game I can spend the majority of my day playing, before depression sets in at how I wasted the day... but hey! You won't have that guilt!
- Stellaris
- Crusader Kings 2
- Total War (they're all amazing, take your pick. Britannia with the Shieldwall mod needs more attention though - people are sleeping on it)
If you haven't played it yet play Witcher 3. That will keep you busy and invested.
Gallows humor is how some people deal with scary shit.

Why would you recommend an addiction like this?
I had to uninstall Civ VI recently because it became too addictive. ;-;
Dragon Quest Builders 2!
Honestly one of the best games this gen with a focus on the single player campaign. Don't let the Minecraft style discourage you. It's not really like minecraft imho.
Was going to post this myself. Say goodbye to your life for a couple of glorious weeks.
I could spend hours on Kerbal Space Program, but it's not for everyone.
Civ is also a good shout.
Any Total War game is a complete time sink as well.

Looks like the italian football league is also going to halt completely so you can keep it alive in Football Manager
Situation is serious and dire but this is not the thread to be discussing it further or offering condolences to the italian people, i'm sure theres one for it on EtcetEra. OP is asking for game recs.

Stardew Valley: you can sink at least 100 hours for 15 bucks. Minecraft is a good candidate as well.
Also, forza ragazzi! Hopefully the situation will improve soon.

Gather 3 friends and play some Pandemic (tabletop game). It doesn't get more immersive IMO.
You're really gonna begrudge folk having a laugh during trying times...?
Fellow spaniard, shit's scary. Working remotely as well. Stay safe everyone.
I'm personally playing FFXIV. Outstanding game, nearly unlimited content, and you get to be social as well. Needed in the current situation.
Italian from Turin here.
From this morning all the country is now adopting the "red zone" limitations of Lombardy until April 3rd at least.
This means staying at home as most as possible, going out only for buying foodstuffs and stocks and cannot leave the residential city at all without a special permission (authorized from work company or for demonstrated health issues).
This is no joke guys.
Personally I consider myself somewhat lucky as I can still work via smartworking from home so there are no economical or work losses at all, but many workplaces and professionals already got big economical loss and/or are risking their health because they're forced to keep working.
Now, bringing back the irony: I'm finally enjoying Final Fantasy XV Royal Edition for the first time on Xbox One X, and I am finally killing my backlog.
Thank you Gamepass! :°)
Hey, lemme tell you from a place that's royally fucked as I work on this outbreak that laughing about it is actually quite healthy. Hypertension is a big comorbidity factor. Stay safe, people, and try to keep others equally safe.
