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.

        Unpacking is a great game, but it’s a shame it’s so short for what the OP (and me, it’s part of why I’m here) needs.

      This is the answer I was going to give. It’s my go to game when listening to podcasts. It’s relaxing, it’s satisfying, and doesn’t take a whole lot of attention so you can really focus on the podcast without missing anything.
