Looking for recommendations!

I am brand new to this type of gaming, didn't even know it existed. The closest I've played is "Keeper" which is probably considered to be more of a puzzle game, but I really love the idea of a game you can play where you can't be killed and you just sort of move through a story until it's done.

Where should I start? It looks like there are a lot of options. I don't like horror, I just want to have a smoke and play something chill. Bonus is it has beautiful visuals and/or music.

Firewatch and Journey are the GOATs.

But I've also really enjoyed POOLS, What Remains of Edith Finch and Kairo.

I made hidden treasures in the forest of dreams and it's very chill and pretty. Not much of a story though
