The first time I met my landlord's dog, was when I was collecting the KFC delivery at the doorstep.
I thought that dog stuffed toy is kinda life-like on the sofa.
It didn't react to me at first, then once my focus shifted from the delivery box towards the 'animal toy' I realized it's actually wagging its tail.
'Hey, buddy. Who're you?'
No response, just more tail wag.
How can I not know that this dog existed? There was no barking at all for two weeks.
So I went back to my room, ready to eat and I can't help but feel wanting to share the good stuff.
Took a chunk of meat off the chicken breast (I don't like it very much, too hard), and walked over to the dog.
Slowly, it began to chew at the meat while wagging its tail.
One year later, it comes over to my room whenever it smells something nice and demands walk when it got bored of indoor living.
This is Choo eating a piece of roasted pork knuckle that I couldn't finish last Sunday.
And this is Choo eating chicken wing off Pizza Hut box

+1 Also, Dungeon Keeper 1 and 2
You can't go wrong with Blood 1 and the aforementioned Duke 3D either.
The original Worms games are great but only when you have a monocled friend around because the game's AI is depressing.

Sam & Max season 1-3. They are funny, and not overly difficult, so you probably won't rage at the screen.
Postal 2 is surprisingly cheerful, especially if played in a goofy way, but ah... the first thing your character does is kick a dog, so... I don't know.
Things like Tetris, Bejeweled and so on have been proposed and studied as a treatment for depression. I guess Huniepop would also do the trick
I would not recommend games you can play absentmindedly or in an "auto mode". Unfortunately, many modern shooters and "game-with-RPG-elements" are like that. Besides, their plots are depressing. That means NO twitchers, Mass Effects, cover shooters, Fallouts 4 or similars. You'll probably just waste hours going from place A to place B all the time doing stupid quests. I would recommend short games of speed and tension that require your conscious attention and spatial intelligence, like Quake 3 (CounterStrike perhaps? I don't know) or, if you want a slow game with tension, Thief 1-2. For a high-speed and funny classic shooter, I think the original Shadow Warrior is also great.
Click & Point adventure games are always recommended, of course.
I'd also play poker, but perhaps that's just me.

I think it depends entirely on each person what kind of game he finds soothing or depressing.
Last time I was feeling really shitty and didn't wanna play anything, I fired up Papo & Yo for some reason and I found it pretty relaxing.

You can't go wrong with South Park: The Stick of Truth.

Play Hatred, if killing normies doesn't cheer you up I don't know what will.
Or if you're not a massive edgelord then maybe Metal Gear Rising would or something similar would do. Nothing better for a shitty mood than an intense, sword-slashing action game.

Your backlog needs some Postal 2 treatment.

Try to imagine that baby is your dog and game can be very emotional for you.
