Pro tips for gaming while high

2. Game selection — Using bilateral information processing, rely on past experiences. Familiarize yourself with games first, it will help reduce any unnecessary stress caused by the mechanics of a game you have never played before. The most fun games tend to be simple, intuitive flows; often the more complex the mechanics, the harder the player will try to stay in the right state.
3. Social dynamics — Usually best to socially play cooperative games, rather than competitive ones. The goal of gaming together is to enjoy each other’s company, not gain an edge over the other.

The best games to play while high should focus more on atmosphere, creativity, and social aspects, rather than competitive mechanics.

After all, you can be in outer space with strangers in No Man’s Sky, build whatever spooky buildings you want in Minecraft, or figure out eloquent puzzles in Monument Valley. All experiences should be chosen to heighten or complement your altered state rather than putting you in an inner battle where the gameplay and mechanics are pulling against your altered mind.
