I’m looking for PC games that I can play while listening to podcasts- games that don’t have engaging cut scenes or important dialogue, games that honestly don’t require a lot of skill or thought.
I used to be really into things like Farm Frenzy, Rescue Team, hidden object games, that kind of thing. I got heavily into MMOs and stopped downloading casual games for a decade or so.
Now it almost feels like this sort of game isn’t made anymore? Were they completely nuked by the existence of Gacha games, P2W, and anything that earns the dev a constant income stream? I’m happy to pay for a game once, but I can’t be constantly buying booster packs.
I also don’t want to play on mobile or on a console, PC Master Race here, haha.
Try Dorfromantik. It’s a hexagonal puzzle game where you build a map using different tiles and connecting like with like. Very relaxing, doesn’t require sounds or full attention.
Second Dorfromantik. Very chill game, no timer,
Dorf is probably the most milage I’ve got out of $10 in years. I got it on sale during early access, and it’s been my go-to casual game when I’ve got something else on the go pretty much ever since.
