I love a nice, relaxing game to curl up in bed with, and in that respect The Spirit and the Mouse was delightful. It's a low-stakes adventure about kindness and exploration with plenty of collectibles to find and some lovely environments to explore. I did find that the game tended towards over-wordiness and that it suffered from overly explanatory NPCs, with its unskippable scenes that would play each time I'd finished a "quest," but it didn't get too much in the way of the relaxed nature of this game.
