Hand broken, Cant play most games...
« on: February 13, 2012, 09:25:16 am »

I got my main hand broken last friday, and everything is at least twice as hard, including writing this post.
My question is, do you guys know some good (low-requirement, my cpu sucks) one-hand games?

EDIT:Age Of Empires III, Rise Of Nations, DF 34.01, Nethack, Fallout 2 and Hammerfight can keep me going can keep me going for a while  :D
Crusader kings was too much for cpu  :(


Thanks for the help!

Of course there's an ethical way to train doctors! Toss children off short cliffs. Since they're not useful adults, injuring them isn't a waste of valuable labor, and since they're not nobles, it's ethical to use short cliffs instead of tall ones!

Go left handed, who knows, you might become ambidextrous.

Probably thats why they are used with pentagrams on covers of Satanic Black Metal albums.

They're nearly as bad as badgers. Build a couple of anti-buzzard SAM sites marksdwarf towers and your fortress will look like Baghdad in 2003 from all the aerial bolt spam. You waste a lot of ammo and everything is covered in unslightly exploded buzzard bits and broken bolts.

Spiral Knights can be played with just a mouse if you rebind the controls.

Be like me and mouse with yer off-hand!!! But seriously though, i don't know a lot of games that can be played one-handed, but here's the few i do know:
- Trials 2
- Hammerfight (might be tricky to play with your not-mouse hand though)
- Any game from the Heroes of Might and Magic series (though preferrably 3 or above)
- Fallout 1 and 2 (probably a bit clunky with pure mouse though)

Otherwise check around on Kongregate or similar sites, some games there can easily be one-handed (Frantic 1 and 2 come to mind, though they're kind of bullet hell-y).

You can play every game with one hand if you're good enough. Are you some kind of scrub?

All the GBA pokemon games can be played with the left hand only. I hope that that's not your dominant one.
