One Handed Games

I hear Rapelay only requires one hand.

But seriously your in luck my friend. Nows the time to head over to GOG and get ahold of the SpaceQuest and KingsQuest collections. Don't go to steam thoose are buggy and require alot of knowhow to get working. Also look for the Monkey Island games. The first two have been remastered. Then go and pick yourself up a copy of UFO: Enemy unknown.

Holy nostalgia trip Batman, I loved those games as a kid, how'd I miss this comment on the first pass.

Masturba- ooh... my bad...

Try some simple RPGs, my recommendation would be Recettear. You could also do a MMO

 

[Cridhe]

Heroes of Might and Magic (all of them)

Kingdom of Loathing (excellent browser game)

Almost anything on Kongregate.com, I go there for a lot of mini-games and the like.

Forza/Gran Turismo as pretty easy to play one handed. Sometimes when I'm lazy I just do some casual drifting with one hand.

Hold on a sec, I missed something.

So long story short. I broke my right (dominant) arm.

Does anyone have any suggestions for games I can play with just my left hand?

Obviously strategy and turn based roleplaying would be high on that list. Some fun little plat formers would be nice too. If you think it can be played well one handed please mention it.

Civ5 has been getting a workout, but looking for something more.

Civ5? That's kind of a weird name. Most people pick something a bit more masculine.

Bejeweled 3...and....

Oh I can't resist..

Chatting to Zevran in DA:O...it only needs one hand...then after....you can use both hands.

Diablo II, but that's more of a right-hand-only game.

... Bayonetta was made to be played with one hand...

haha nahh, just browse some casual games.

EDIT:
Oh yeah, Dead or Live Extreme was ment to be played with one hand

any of the first 7 Final Fantasy games can be played with one hand. I know cause I have extreme lazy nights, where i want to put in less effort than I already do.

I was in a similar situation a couple of weeks ago. Cut my right palm open quite deep and had to have stitches.

I got really into text-based games like Echo Bazaar (mentioned on Extra Credits). You should have a look, and that goes for anyone!

Hope you arm gets better soon.

I had thought of that but had forgotten the the name, thanks.

Bit late I know, but if you have an Xbox, I'd suggest the indie game Solar. It's incredibly simple, but is actually a lot of fun.
