    My ADHD prevents me from focusing on just one thing. Does anyone have a good game to play in tandem of watching a movie or show? Ideally something turn based or strategic, but not something complicated enough to require undivided attention.

    Slay the spire and crafting in MMOs has been my go to lately, but I’d love something tower defensey.

      Riftbreaker isnt really turn based, but it has a lot of base building tower defense style gameplay and its 40% off right now. Super fun and addicting gameplay and a pretty extensive tech tree. Also they have a planned multiplayer patch coming out eventually

      I’ve put way too many hours into Kingdom New Lands.
      It’s a satisfying tower defense game, with a very simple loop once you’re used to it. Great to keep your hands busy while watching something.

        Yesssss! You are very much in my wavelength, I have played a ton of kingdoms! Super clever game, I never thought side scrolling city builder would be a thing… But there it is! Great background game, another good suggestion.

      If you haven’t already tried them, I had a great time with Vampire Survivors and Loop Hero. Both give the player the ability to check out a little bit, though in different ways. Loop Hero is easier to walk away from than VS, but both games require the player to do little to nothing in order to engage in combat. Loop Hero is a little more involved while VS is a bit more arcade-y. Both very fun

      This is one of my gaming needs, so I can help with some I’ve used. They don’t require enough focus to break your focus on your show

      1. Vampire Survivor - has some things in common with tower defensey, but ultra-addictive
      2. Factorio
      3. Cultist Simulator (not like anything you asked but worth the checkout)
      4. Luck be a Landlord (slay the spirey, but simpler)
      5. Mindustry (serious tower-defense vibes here, and FREE)
