lately I’ve been really enjoying Last Call BBS, which is the last Zachtronics game. except it’s actually a collection of minigames

there’s a minigame for assembling and painting miniatures that makes a really nice stim in roughly the same way as something like PowerWash Simulator. but really it’s more like painting and then assembling a jigsaw puzzle. a few years ago I found an Itch io game about doing this, got obsessed with it for a week or two, and wanted more ever since. the mini-painting is honestly my favorite part of the whole game

there are also a few mini Zachtronics type engineering games, including a body horror cellular automata game called X’BPGH, which has incredible vibes and I’m looking forward to playing more so I can see how the story ends (the story is about harnessing eldritch forces to program flesh to grow into a new body, made in your image, so that you can become immortal. which has got to be one of my favorite video game premises ever)

it also has two separate solitaire games! I haven’t gotten the second one yet, but the first is exactly as fun as you would expect a solitaire game to be (I actually really like solitaire)
