videogames to play high

Best weed and video game pairings (a strain for your adventure)

I play a lot of video games, and sometimes I smoke weed (ok, always). Sometimes I’m not in the mood for a challenging, grinding game. Sometimes I just want to enjoy the beautiful experience. But the wrong weed can make your reactions slow, or your patience super thin. You might get stuck at cognitive puzzles or lost going in circles forgetting the mission.

Anyway, for your entertainment, I’ve paired some of my all-time favorite games with a recommended strain to perfect the experience. Test these out yourself and let me know if you agree!
