I was about to recommend specifically OW because I played in 1-2 hour sessions over many months (not every week). I left the game open with the PC sleeping quite a few times to avoid losing my current run (and each time a blackout happened lol) however I did my fair share of silly stuff and didn’t feel pressured.
The span of time pressure is so long though you barely even notice it. And because it’s a core mechanic, it’s mostly inconsequential and doesn’t really feel stressful for me.

Yes to all except Outer Wilds.
I love OW but it is not a game to recommend to someone who explicitly says they don’t want a game with time pressure.
