I'm curious how everyone approaches their adventure gaming time these days. Are you looking for games that fit into a busy lifestyle or do you enjoy setting aside an evening or day of gaming?

Do you prefer games that are easy to play in 30-60 minute sessions, where you can save, come back later, and still remember what you were doing? Or even enjoy a game that is complete after an hour.

Or do you enjoy adventures that are better suited to longer gaming sessions where you can really immerse yourself for several hours at a time?

Has your preference changed over the years?

I'd love to hear which style you prefer—and why.

Thanks for playing along and letting us get to know what you enjoy!

I used to love the hours at a time but as I've aged it seems I'm looking to steal minutes for gaming. 30 minute windows are the norm for me now.


It's nice to be important but it is much more important to be nice.

Long gaming sessions were my norm for many, many years but health issues now prevent that.

So, I have to stick with games that allow me to “save at will” these days and in that way I can still play full length Adventures but just take longer getting through them.

Preferably a game would immerse me for hours but also allow me to just play for a short time if that is what I chose to do.

I'm not sure if it's me or the games, but not too many *invite* me to play for long periods of time these days, even if I really like the game. I will admit though that I don't really seem to like most games the way that I used to. I'm just a grump now! mad

And, Ana, don't think that just because I stopped pressuring you to include YOUR answers to these questions, that I haven't noticed that you don't! kissy

lol Fair enough! I deliberately look for short games or games that can be played and continued a week or weeks later without really needing to refresh my memory. I just don't have time to game like I used to.
