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.

    As someone who has played thousands of games of Shattered with >600 games just on my most recent phone (108 of those ascended) and has ascended with all the sub-classes… git gu… no, no, no, ask questions. Some of the mechanics are kind of subtle and exploiting them can take thought. I personally find the Huntress/Warden the easiest (because the spirit bow has unlimited ammo letting you sell off thrown weapons and the free seeds and dew drops can keep you alive).

      i agree, the farthest i have gotten is with the huntress, the rouge is good sometimes for when your in a bind and can cloak to escape. the bad thing about the rouge is it takes a while for the cloak to recharge so by the time its charged all those enemies you escaped are back on you.
