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.

Looking for an Itch Recommendation? (kbin.melroy.org)

Hey all, Sorry if this is not a great magazine to post this. I'm looking for a nice cozy game (for a non-gamer!) to play for about an hour or so a day instead of doomscrolling. I like the idea of a game where I can make slow progress, though I don't tend to like the traditional RPG style. But something like a slow moving simulator or whatever could be great (for example, I really enjoy MiniMetro on mobile). Thoughts?

I did mean itch.io, but that's alright - the ambiguity was my fault and I'm not completely set on itch.io.

A nice thing about Lemmy is that you can edit titles! You can change your title to say itch.io

(also shameless plug for !videogamesuggestions@lemmy.zip where this post would definitely fit in, I see posts asking for recommendations/suggestions all the time on other gaming lemmy communities and wonder if they know of the community specifically made for that)
