Help and suggestions
Oh right, didnt answer the question in my other post.
Little Missfortune is probably the top of my list of short but great games.
Cthulu Saves the World and even shorter, Cthulu Saves Christmas if you want some bite sized JRPG goodness. Breath of Death VII from the same dev is also short.
Im also a sucker for Hidden Object Adventure gsmes which all take 2-4 hours. Artifex Mundi was my favorite dev for those until 2020 when they pivoted to a mobile dev.
Donut County was really addicting and I wish it was longer or had an endless mode so I could keep playing it.
I like the Dread X collection, which was something like 10 small games all bundled into one.
The Hero of the Kingdom series was fun kinda like a puzzle game disguised as an RPG. They made like 6 of them and I wish more existed. (Hah I checking i realize they put up a steam page for thr next one, so that’s great)
Little Kitty Big City if you just wanna be a cat. Even more so for Catlateral Damage if you want to destroy things.
Tiny Terry’s Turbo Trip for some bite sized cute GTA-like action.
Winion Virus if you arent affected by trigger warnings of depression and suicide, its a really great story but pretty messed up.
