Stardew Valley, maybe? There is both a Mac OS and a PC version.

Silly predictions for upcoming third-party games:
- Capcom reveals the Ace Attorney spin-off Space Attorney. Like the original, but in space!
- After the remakes of Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town as Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town and Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life as Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life, Marvelous surprises everyone by skipping over the Wii games directly to the 3DS game Story of Seasons (2014), soon to be remade as Story of Seasons: Story of Seasons.
(Both Ace Attorney and Story of Seasons have completely different names in the original. So a concept that is based on the English name sounding funny is highly unlikely. But hey, who cares, I've got my speculation fun.)
Playing video games? I'm over here playing with my pets.
Image description: screenshot from the 3DS game Nintendogs + Cats. The image features a Yorkshire Terrier puppy, a grey tabby kitten, and a calico kitten. The dog is standing on its hind legs, front paws at the camera, wearing a blue collar with a white pattern. The two cats are a little further back, gracefully walking on the wooden floor. There are some furniture items in the background, with sunlight streaming in from a window.
Umgekehrt betrachtet, ist es für die Vielfalt ggf. besser, wenn es 20.000 (oder 2000 oder 200.000 *zieht Zahlen aus dem linken Ohr) kleine Studios und Solo Devs gibt, die genug Erfolg haben, um weiterzumachen, als dass es ein Spiel in die Top 20 schafft. Siehe die ganzen Farming-Lifesim-Spiele, seit Stardew Valley so erfolgreich ist.
Aber wenn man auf den Mainstream schaut, ist es trotzdem irgendwie trostlos.
Always, not just this weekend: Nintendogs + Cats on 3DS. I'm not in a rush to get through everything the game has, and I'm not "good at the game" insofar this is even a criterion for this type of game. I posted a screenshot in a comment to the weekly thread a few weeks ago. Since then, I discovered that you can only have 3000 screenshots on the 3DS's memory card (I made a post about that on !3ds@lemmy.world). 3000 might sound like a high number, but it is really not if you have a lot of near-misses in pressing the capture button. So now I have the interesting secondary task of sorting through all the screenshots that I moved to my desktop. Not really a game, though.
In addition to that, I started a new playthrough of Pokémon Crystal. I'm doing a not-so-hardcore Nuzlocke challenge to make it more interesting for myself. But this is really not about difficulty, this is what I can play in short bursts without having to use my brain all that much (I have other games in my backlog for that, and also other non-game things to do). While I still have my childhood Gameboy Color and game cartridges that I keep for sentimental reasons, I opt to play on an emulator on my Android for convenience.
