Since my firstborn, 7 yo now, I'm all in board games. Long past are the days of 100+ hours rpgs and grand strategy games.

Having a blast with boards! Love 'em even more than playing on mu PC, including a lot of solo gaming.

I don’t have a kid but the steam deck has been a godsend for me. No need to sit down in front of a computer to enjoy some gaming and the standby mode of it pauses the game. Also helps you being aware of your surrounding.

All of this! As soon as I got a Switch, I knew all of my gaming going forward would primarily be handheld. I always hated being tied to a specific place to play games, be it on an xbox or pc, but there was no other options. The steam deck and similar (I have an ayaneo) have made playing games so much more enjoyable. Being able to play whatever and wherever is just mint (the only downside is I'm reading substantially less than I used to lol)

What kinda board games do you play solo?

[-] Ineedcoffee@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I'll give you my top 5: Gaia Project, Agricola, Spirit Island, Mage Knight and Terraforming mars. You can try some of those in boardgame arena! Ping me there, same handle, and I can teach you some games :)
