Is there anything to get here? I feel like either I’m missing something, or this comic is literally just about someone having a nap instead of playing a game.
Fine if that’s the case, but I keep thinking there’s some sort of joke I’m missing.
Looking it up it appears to be a moderately long game that is fairly heavy. For many taking a nap is probably preferable to playing this.
Looking at #1 at the bottom… maybe it’s not a joke but the start of a new story?
A strange game. The only winning move is not to play
Soon Joshua, soon
Just friends playing a game and being accepting of one another!
It’s wholesome. I love it.
There’s a subgenre in sci Fi and fantasy called “cozy”. Which is basically the above comic, but in spaaaace or similar. Nothing happens. No one gets hurt or upset. But it’s still transporting you into a different world for a moment. I kind of love it :)
Becky Chambers FTW. Palate-cleansing Sci-Fi.
There’s also reddit sub, r/cozyfantasy – not enough traction on Lemmy yet to have an equivalent. Maybe soon :)
