A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

So this isn't directly related to patientgaming but my hardware and personal tastes kind of filter me to playing games no newer than five years old.

I'm looking for some recommendations for games that can be completed within ten hours. I've realized recently that this is the sweet spot how much I enjoy playing a game before I get bored of it. I'm open to all types of games. Thanks in advance!

Well-reviewed games you can 100% in less than 10hrs:

  • Portal
  • The Henry Stickmin Collection
  • OneShot
  • Stray
  • Grimm's Hollow
  • Any of The Room games
  • Pineapple on Pizza
  • There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension
  • Doki Doki Literature Club
  • TOEM
  • Finding Paradise
  • The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog
  • CULTIC
  • Gorogoa
  • The Case of the Golden Idol

Well-reviewed games you can probably beat in around 10hrs, but not quite 100%:

  • Portal 2
  • Vampire Survivors
  • Pizza Tower
  • Katana ZERO
  • A Hat in Time
  • Resident Evil 2
  • Hotline Miami
  • The Wolf Among Us
  • Undertale
  • Papers, Please
  • Baba Is You
  • DUSK
  • POSTAL 2
  • Outlast

Edit: formatting is pain

Edit 2: I missed the part about low-end hardware, but it sounds like the only ones of these you may not be able to run are Stray and Resident Evil 2
