Think about not having to deal with crazy gunfights, working together with other people, and making high-stakes plans. Instead, you could just be a rock for the afternoon. Stone Simulator—Just Be a Rock, which is released on Steam, has a strange and surprising premise: you just be a rock. In this zen-like simulation, you stay still and watch the environment change around you. Seasons change, the weather changes, moss grows, birds land, and time goes on, often in funny or strange ways.
What is Stone Simulator?
STFGames made and distributed Stone Simulator, a meditative idle game. Released on Steam back on August 19, 2025. The main idea is that you are a rock. You can’t move. Instead, you see a world where things are always changing, the weather constantly shifts, strange things happen, and odd events take place. You just exist, through hot summers and tremendous storms, and even through ages of silence.
Absurd concept made into reality
Stone Simulator is a nice change of pace for me as a hardcore first-person shooter fanatic and a content writer.
Stone Simulator is a great choice if you want to play something that isn’t a first-person shooter, an MMO, or an esports game that gets your heart racing. It has a simple premise that is beautifully done, a lot of strange humor, and a chance to think in peace. It’s a great addition to your content library under “indie game spotlights” or “streamer recommendation pieces.”
