I was playing Fire Emblem Engage (Lunatic/Classic difficulty), but then I started replaying Disco Elysium and got hooked on that one all over again. I was pleasantly surprised by how well it controls on the Deck -- great way to kill time on the train!
I've been interested in trying Disco Elysium, good to know that it runs well on the Deck! You mentioned playing on the train - is it a good game to play in short bursts?
Hmm... I'd say you really need at least 20 minutes of time to have a properly satisfying session with Disco Elysium. That's just fine for me because the train frequency in my city (Atlanta) is particularly shit, but results may vary otherwise.
One game I can recommend for play in short bursts is Slay the Spire. Even if you're just sitting down for five mintues, you can usually manage to get something accomplished and ascend a few nodes.
My bus ride is about 60 minutes so that should be enough then. Thanks! Yeah, I really like Slay the Spire and similar games (e.g. Wildfrost) for really short bursts.
You can definitely play it in bits if you're able to follow the game log. It keeps track of all the conversations and bits that you need to remember.
There's no action in the game, so there's nothing you can't just put down and pick up later, as long as you can remember what you were in the process of doing or where you were going.
