So this isn’t directly related to patientgaming but my hardware and personal tastes kind of filter me to playing games no newer than five years old.
I’m looking for some recommendations for games that can be completed within ten hours. I’ve realized recently that this is the sweet spot how much I enjoy playing a game before I get bored of it. I’m open to all types of games. Thanks in advance!
I have seen it recommended somewhere in the comments but I want to shed some more light on this game: What Remains of Edith Finch. It is a walking simulator that should take about 2 hours and is best played in a single session.
As Edith Finch, you go back to the house where you grew up in your younger years to explore it. The Finch family has an almost genetic trait of bad luck; many of them have died before their time. You explore the house room by room and explore that person’s last moments.
There is no gore or horror of any kind, but there are children that die, so if that is a trigger I would sit this one out. If not, it is currently on sale for less than €5. It is worth it.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it’s price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don’t meet the system requirements, or just haven’t had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Klondike solitaire 😁.
Castlevania: SOTN once you know a couple of thing about grinding faster.
World of goo
Brothers: A tale of two sons is pretty spectacular and can be finished within a few hours.
Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion
Portal, Hyperbolica
Inscryption
What Remains of Edith Finch is a game in this category that really left an impression. Would definitely recommend a playthrough.
INSIDE is one of my favorite games of any length
Small saga
Brothers
Not recommended for fathers - particularly fathers of boys.
Ya… wonderful story telling and gameplay though. It made both me and my brother cry.
Oh man… I suspect I shouldn’t play this with my boy then.
Stranded Sails can’t have been much longer than that.
Braid is deffo under ten.
Titanfall 2 is fun! I did the singleplayer in about 6 to 7 hours.
This is a good rec.
Citizen Sleeper, it’s so good you will likely not put it down until your story ends!
Thomas Was Alone, amazing narrative platformer and all time favourite.
Telltale Games, most of not all can be completed in 10 hours and they are all great. TWAU is the best one.
Titanfall 2, one of the greatest campaigns.
You can finish a lot in 10 hours.
