What "mindless" games do you play?
What "mindless" games do you play?
I'm often in longer telephone conferences and like to play relatively uncomplicated, mindless games like 2048 or threes. Both of these are getting pretty boring these days, so I'm looking for new games.
Vampire survivors. Perfect one hand food game
It's great that it can be played in landscape too if you want to pay more attention to it occasionally
free and open source
- Puzzles (40 single-player logic games)
- Tap the black tiles (Touch the correct tiles to win)
- Anuto TD (Another Ugly Tower Defense)
- Open Flood (A simple but addictive flood fill game)
ads :/
Minesweeper and various solitaires, which are decent enough to pass time.
Lato, endless snowboard downhill game
Looks like that's just a rip off of Alto's Adventure
Extremely based, i love that game
I love when it says "you fell on your ass"
I don't know if you'd call them completly mindless, as they're puzzle games of a sort, but both Mini Metro and Mini Motorways are great relaxing time killers to me.
Not really complicated, just making connections. A fair bit of downtime just everyone make their trips, relaxing music, simplistic visuals, easy to pick up and play.
Little alchemy 2, hyperburner, pinout
Cross me Nonogram is a fun one.
Infinite Loop (∞ Loop), Flow, Desert Golfing, Simon Tatham's Puzzle Pack, and various card games are some of the games I play just to kill time or keep myself stimulated while listening to something.
Desert Golfing
I've played 439 consecutive solitaire daily challenges.
That's ... impressive? Concerning?
i am hooked to Crossy Road. (is like atari fogger, but better)
Idle Apocalypse, Tower of Hero, and when I'm not mad at them Pokémon Go
Magic Survival. It's mostly mindless until late game when you really start thinking about how you could survive any given map for an hour.
Dots is entertaining and mindless.
I haven't played it, but holedown looks very promising.
My personal favorite is Egg Inc, though it's a slightly different genre since it's an idle game.
Flow Free, and its spinoff games Bridges, Hex, Warps, and Fit.
The puzzles are kind of mindless and not that difficult, but I've really enjoyed it. You do have to pay to get rid of ads, but after doing so the user experience is excellent.
Chess puzzles with lichess (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.lichess.mobileapp.free/)
2048 Blocks. Basically a 3D reimagination of 2048
Lato and Sand:box
My cellphone mindless games are Haru Slide and Match Fun 3D.
I've been enjoying 4=10 lately.
While not entirely mindless, I've been loving Void Bastards to wind down at the end of the day
Word Hero - basically boggle word find, but new game every 3 minutes and you score with 100 other players

I love the autopencil and statistics. The learning tools really helped me move up to harder puzzles.
Paper(.)io 2
It hasn't been updated in 10 years, but still my go-to: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.cactii.mathdoku
I like farming games like Harvest Moons on emulators for when I'm bored.
Sudoku
Break free of your dopamine addiction.
And then what? Stare on a blank screen for 4h a day?
It's my job to be in conference calls where I only listen for 75% of the time and there's nothing else for me to do except listening. And I find it easier to listen when playing around.
Doodling on paper is just as mindless, but that's probably okay for you, because it's "real" right?
I can imagine you also tell people in a bar to stop drinking.
Nah those people know they are doing something wrong.
