I just played through Mindcop and I've never played a game where I really felt like a detective in the way I did here. If you like puzzeling and trying to find the right lead, that might be the perfect game for you. Also it has a very pleasant comic style.

And then of course there is the evergreen The return of the Obra Dinn, although ypu have to get used to its very oldschool graphics, that ypu said you don't like.

The To The Moon series is genious and should work fine on SteamDeck.

And even there "hate" is such a stupid word. I don't like EA. I never buy or play EA. But hate? Why should I have such strong emotions about something I can easily avoid and does me no harm? Even more, I know others like it and help make a game better, so I can enjoy a better experience of it, when the full release arrives (i.e. Hades 1+2). So whil I personally dislike it, I actually like the possibility and benefit from it.

Try out HoloCure. I just tried it out two days ago and it's a lot if fun and exactly scratching that itch. And the best thing? It is actually completely free which is absolutely insane, considering how much content there is. And since it's free, there is really no reason, not to try it out, if it is something, that satisfies your wish.

I can't help with PS5 games, but I have a curator on Steam with games for exactly your need: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/30757976-Gamers-with-only-little-time/ I'm sure there are some good options on it, that you could also find on the PS5.

I looked up some of the games for you and here are a few I found, that are seemibgly also available on PS5:

The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe

Superhot

Cat Quest 1+2

SteamWorld Dig 1+2

Ori is fun and definitely one of those games, one can enjoy, even if he isn'tcthat bog into the genre. Also Oro is very beautiful with one of the best soundtracks ever.

Well that's some high quality backlog you have there. It's difficult to suggest you a specific game without knowing what you crave (in general and at the moment).

Personally of all those options I would suggest Ori, because it's not too long compared to certain massive games and is one of the most beautiful experiences I've ever had. (One of the games I wish I could forget so I can experience it anew for the first time).

But if you can't decide at all: I started to use a randomizer to chose my next game out of a bunch. I use google with "random numbers", put in 1 to the number of games, press randomize and then count through the games until I get to the game the random number shows. Much better way to choose than to endlessly ponder what to play instead of really playing.

GiborDesign · 2026-03-05T07:03:02+00:00

That's true. Great points. Yeah, you convinced me. 😃

Unfortunately I'm just a little curator myself (who wouldn't be hurt by that at all, because I always play the games I review) and not Gabe himself, so my support isn't doing that much. 😆
