So, yesterday I broke my dominant arm. Yay! For the next 6 weeks, I have a cast, and at least for now, I can’t use my right hand or arm at all (I am typing this with my left hand).
I’m looking for suggestions what I can play. Some thoughts:
- On PC, of couse
- Can be played only with the keyboard
- No time limits or need to respond quickly (e.g. many RTSes)
- I like puzzle games, RPGs, and good storytelling. I want to like sim games, but haven’t yet found one that I love.
- Nothing too difficult
Here’s a link to my Steam profile, if that helps: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198028619119/games/?tab=all
Thank you all for any advice!
Darkest dungeon dungeon should be playable with only one hand available.
FTL: Faster Than Light, an incredible rouge-like in space
Pros:
-
All actions have a leyboard shortcut
-
you can pause anytime and plan ahead
-
will satisfy your analytical brain that needs puzzles
-
randomized, each game will be different
-
can be played in short bursts should you get tired with the cast or whatever on
-
is amazing
-
randomized
-
dirt cheap
Cons:
- you still need to use the mouse to aim weapons, albeit no need to be ultra precise…most of the time
- randomized…will punish you sometimes so you just have to take it on the chin. Part of the fun and all that.
I recently enjoyed playing yet another zombie survivors and it was a blast, cheap and at least a weeks worth of grinding to unlock all the goodies. Also you only need the WASD keys so you should be set with your broken arm.
Slay the Spire and Darkest Dungeon can be played with only a mouse and you don’t need any reaction, maybe when you configure the overlay in the settings for the games it’s then playable with only the keybord. Maybe you can also play Dredge in the passive mode with only one hand and only keybord I havent tried it out with this restriction
