I stummbled upon this and thanks for making an article that incorporated games! I just successfully made my 9-years old cousin read the full post. They probably don't know the meaning and mispronounced lots of things, but they are reading at least.

Every few months I get sucked into Stardew Valley and one of the explanations is that it just calms everything down, no nerves, lets go Skull cavern!

I have a childhood friend who I see and do nothing with; we know each other so well we don't need to say a word. We usually just listen to some tunes, drink some NA beers, and chat here and there. It's great
