Five types of games that were made for neurodivergent people

I spent hours having my Sim write a bunch of books in the evenings so his monthly royalties were enough that he could quit his day job and never have to get another one.

I’m hoping to emulate that success some day. 😆

Haha I had a Sim become a writer too! He barely left the house either 😅

🤣

checks my 2600 hours played of The Sims 4 👀😂

Those are some pro numbers! 😅

Maybe you should start a sideline offering game reviews. There are a couple here I was on the fence about but youve convinced me to try (Blue Prince especially).

One of the best that I was surprised you didn't mention is stardew valley. If you haven't tried it please do, it has a cult following for a reason.

Ah yes Stardew Valley is a glaring omission! Brilliant game.

I guess I'm the only AuDHD out here that hates video games.

Nope. I am old, 69 to be exact. So video games didn’t exist when I was enough younger to be called a child and when I became aware of them, I was 36 and my then boyfriend now husband was 24.

He desperately wanted me to play games with him, and there was one that I liked to play in a team mode in its first or second iteration I don’t recall, Diablo.
