Looking for a game to play while holding a baby
Hey guys!
I have twins, and gaming has always been a part of my life, but unsurprisingly, with two little ones, hobbies like this take second place.
Recently though, I noticed I can squeeze in a bit of gaming time while calming a baby in my arms, and I played some Civ 6. It worked well because it allowed for:
* short sessions (30 min max)
* one-handed play
* natural breaks every turn to walk around with the kid
* time to think about what to do during those breaks
Later turns became too long, though, and the baby needed more movement, so I was constantly losing context and eventually put the game down.
I tried Balatro too, but it lacked those natural breaks, and it was even easier to lose context.
Do you guys have any suggestions? I generally like roguelikes and indie games. Some of the games I’ve enjoyed recently are Balatro, Dave the Diver, and Satisfactory.
Don’t worry about the kid — they’re looking away from the screen toward the nearby window.
Edit: I will throw some good suggestions I already noticed: Into The Breach (fits perfectly, but I played it), StS2, Mewgenics
TL;DR: I’m looking for turn-based games that can be played one-handed, encourage longer thinking/planning, but aren’t overly complex.
