Forgedbow posted:Also, LA Noire, which feels like a low-key GTA clone written by I'm not so sure it holds much in common with GTA. It is a much more directed experience, with simple driving sections and brief action scenes. It's more of an 'open' world adventure game, with light point and click style mechanics and an interesting interview system. Nonetheless, it contains some fantastic narrative arcs (which are way better than most GTA), and a nice level of characterization, which is further emphasised by the superb production values.

I really love games that I can complete within a few hours and not feel cheated. I'm often strapped for time and I can't see the benefit of plugging hours into a game nowadays. Sad, but true.  I'm on the hunt for narrative focused, complete experiences that can be played in an evening. (3/4 hours.)Here's the games I've played - and loved - in this style:
Any suggestions? I'm not too fussed by genre at all.

You can now play FTL in a browser... Sounds like that might hit the spot for you? (I'm sure you're familiar with FTL as you mentioned rogue likes!) I'm looking for some games that I can play while listening to podcasts? Any genre, really. I'm looking for that sweet spot where I can be just engaged enough to be having fun, but not mindlessly swiping / clicking at stuff.

Okay, Viscrea Cleanup Detail looks INSANE. I'm loving their website too. Locked in. Thanks for the recommendation.

I'm on a 7hr flight to New York next week and would like to get stuck into a meaty game on my iPad. My favoured genres are RPGs, turn based strategies and adventure games. (All games that lend themselves well to touchscreen.) I've been out of the loop for a while on the gaming scene, but have previously enjoyed The Banner Saga, FTL and Xcom. I'm using a second generation iPad Air, so has to be fairly low-fi in terms of graphics.

Thanks guys! So, I picked up Invisible Inc, Ticket to Earth and Shadowrun: Dragonfall. Should keep me occupied there and back.

5thMouseButton posted:XBOX One recommendations family & never-played-a-console-game-before-types can play? Preferably coop. You can get all of the Jackbox Party Packs on XBox. They're essentially party games where everybody logs in on their phones. I'd say Drawful and Fibbage from the first pack are the highlights. Also, Overcooked may work well. It's a simple co-op arcade game where you have to work together to cook food. Yup.
