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.

Best games that can be completed in under ten hours? (lemmy.world)

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 always check https://howlongtobeat.com/ before starting a new game

I also tend to prefer games that are short.

Here are a couple of my PC recommandations, in no specific order :

Somerville

Jusant

Planet of Lana

Limbo + Inside

Little Nightmares 1 + 2

Cocoon

Solar Ash

Tunic

Cult If The Lamb

Have A Nice Death

Death's Door

Stray

Trek To Yomi

TrueAchievements says 15-20 hrs. It took me 25 to get them all. HLTB agrees with this time for completionist.

Have you tried The Longing?

Stray is a good short game. It's on console and PC both. Beautiful game.
