PC Game Recommendation for a Broken Arm? (discuss.tchncs.de)

So, yesterday I broke my dominant arm. Yay! For the next 6 weeks, I have a cast, and at least for now, I can't use my right hand or arm at all (I am typing this with my left hand).

I'm looking for suggestions what I can play. Some thoughts:

  1. On PC, of couse
  2. Can be played only with the keyboard
  3. No time limits or need to respond quickly (e.g. many RTSes)
  4. I like puzzle games, RPGs, and good storytelling. I want to like sim games, but haven't yet found one that I love.
  5. Nothing too difficult

Here's a link to my Steam profile, if that helps: https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198028619119/games/?tab=all

Thank you all for any advice!

Anything that is turn-based will work really, or doesn't rely on a real-time mechanic.

I do suggest looking at a small trackball that you can use in the meantime. It'll be useful for the times when you need a pointing device in a smaller space, for whatever reason.
