The 5 Easiest Video Games for Beginner Gamers

Want to enter your gamer era?

Video games like Fortnite, Valorant or Super Smash Bros. can be daunting for someone who's never played before. Thankfully, there are a variety of games that are simple, even for the most novice players. And the "cozy" games you'll see on this list are great practice to improve your hand-eye coordination.

Continue scrolling to discover video games we've played for beginner games, from life simulators like Disney Dreamlight Valley to adventure games like Life Is Strange.

Disney Dreamlight Valley

Familiar with games like Animal Crossing? You'll probably love Disney Dreamlight Valley

This new life simulator from Disney and Gameloft takes you on an interactive journey to restore the magical land of Dreamlight Valley, which used to be inhabited by iconic Disney characters like Mickey Mouse, Moana and Princess Ariel. 

We always recommend life simulator games to new players because, most of the time, you work at your own pace. Disney also markets their games to a younger audience, which makes it slightly less challenging, but don't worry! The game is still a ton of fun.

 

The Sims 4

Everyone needs to experience The Sims at least once in their life.

The Sims franchise is another life simulator game, but unlike Disney Dreamlight Valley, it's in the sandbox genre, meaning the plot or objective is what you make out of it. Want to simply make Sims for your glorified dress-up game? You can do it. Ready to live a chaotic life as a famous actress or influencer? No worries. It's possible.

Your gaming skills probably won't improve from The Sims, but you will have a lot of fun and find a new addiction.

Life Is Strange

Adventure games can be one of the most difficult genres, but if you're looking to get started, try out Life Is Strange.

The vibe of Life Is Strange is very slow-paced. The characters are always walking, the music is chill, and, honestly, the boss levels aren't that hard. Despite being simple, it has a good storyline, so it's an engaging way to get your practice in!

 

Minecraft

Minecraft is another sandbox game, and people have praised it for decades because it appeals to all types of players. It doesn't matter if you're a new or expert gamer, you can grow the game with your skills. There are plenty of modes—you can take it slow and treat it like a farming game, or you can play in the intense survival mode.

Super Mario Party

Super Mario Party is the most underrated game to improve your skills. 

You might think a family party game will be easy—it is—but the high-level CPU can be a breeding ground for practice. Besides, even if you play with your friends, there are many mini-games that will exercise various gaming muscles, and you'll have to strategize during the board games to get the most stars!
