Great SHORT GAMES when you have NO TIME #Adulting

Being an adult w/ responsibilities means you rarely have enough time for video games. If you only have a short window for gaming, here are some great options you can pick up and play in quick sessions. WATCH >> https://youtu.be/CBtVRkBTMqI?si=_ukqJfon4sm6ELU8 – What SHORT GAMES do you recommend?

If you’re short on time but still want to get a solid gaming fix, here are five great games to play.

1. Vampire SurvivorsThe “Just One More Run” Trap

This game is perfect for short bursts of chaotic fun… until you realize “just one more run” has stolen an hour of your life. You move, the game auto-attacks, and enemies swarm at you like you owe them money. It’s the most relaxing stress-inducing game ever.

2. HadesSpeedrunning Through Hell

You play as Zagreus, son of Hades, who’s just trying to escape the Underworld. Runs can be quick, making it great for short sessions—except, oops, you died and now you want to try one more time because THIS TIME you totally won’t get hit by that one boss again. Spoiler: you will.

3. Slay the Spire“I’ll Just Play One More Card” Syndrome

A roguelike deck-building game where you strategize your way up a tower. “Oh, I’ll just do one quick run” turns into deep contemplation about whether to take the relic that makes you immune to curses but also removes all your gold. Fast-paced… if you’re decisive, which you won’t be.

4. Rocket LeagueFive-Minute Matches (That Destroy Friendships)

A soccer game, but with rocket-powered cars. Matches are short, but the emotional damage from your teammate whiffing an easy shot will last a lifetime. You either feel like an unstoppable pro or a complete disaster—there is no in-between.

5. Tetris Effect: ConnectedThe Zen You Didn’t Ask For

Tetris, but with hypnotic visuals and music that makes stacking blocks feel like a spiritual journey. Great for a quick game… unless you enter The Zone and wake up 45 minutes later realizing you’ve ascended to a higher plane of existence.

Short on time? These games have you covered… just don’t blame me when “five minutes” turns into “where did my evening go?”

Five Lesser-Known Facts About the Nintendo Switch

Five Lesser-Known Facts About the Nintendo Switch

1. The Cartridge Taste Test Challenge
Nintendo made Switch cartridges taste awful on purpose. Seriously, they coated them with a bitter substance called denatonium benzoate to stop kids (and overly curious adults) from swallowing them. If you’ve ever wondered what disappointment tastes like, give one a lick—just don’t blame me when your tongue regrets it.

2. The “Forgotten Feature” IR Camera
The Joy-Con’s right controller has a fancy infrared motion camera that’s criminally underused. Nintendo originally showed it off by letting you play a rock-paper-scissors game… and then promptly forgot about it. It’s like the Switch’s third wheel: cool, but no one invites it to the party.

3. It’s a Fitness Guru in Disguise
The Switch secretly wants to be your personal trainer. Between Ring Fit Adventure, Just Dance, and random Joy-Con waggling, you’re likely burning more calories than you’d expect. Nintendo knows how to make you sweat while convincing you it’s fun—take that, boring gym memberships.

4. It Has a Screenshot Addiction
The Switch is so eager to show off your gaming prowess (or failures) that it gives you a dedicated button for screenshots. One press and boom—instant photo memory. Accidentally hit it during intense boss battles? No worries, now you’ve got 47 blurry images of you getting owned.

5. It Tracks How Long You’ve Been Procrastinating
The Switch keeps a creepy-good log of how many hours you’ve spent on each game. Sure, it’s fun to see you’ve clocked 300 hours in Animal Crossing, but it’s also a brutal reality check when you realize you haven’t spent nearly as much time on life goals.

Switch 2 Reveal: A Game Collector’s Perspective

Today Nintendo revealed the Switch 2, their next-generation hybrid gaming console, featuring upgraded Joy-Cons, a larger OLED display, and support for both new titles and classic Switch games plus other neat tricks like “mouse mode”. However as a game collector and fan of the original console, many questions still remain. WATCH >> https://youtu.be/axsWf32vM1U

The original Nintendo Switch is the Swiss Army knife of gaming, except instead of a corkscrew, it has Joy-Cons that sometimes decide they’re possessed by a ghost named “Drift.” It’s the console that said, “What if we make a Game Boy…but huge and with detachable handles?” Released in 2017, it became an instant favorite for gamers who wanted to play Mario Kart on the go, at home, or in the bathroom during “very important meetings.” The design is sleek, but it’s essentially a glorified tablet with a docking station that looks like it moonlights as a toaster slot. It’s got that magical Nintendo charm, though, so you forgive it for occasionally dropping to single digital frame rates in 3rd party games.

The Switch’s versatility is unmatched—you can go from handheld mode to docked faster than Mario can grab a mushroom. But those Joy-Cons, oh boy. They slide off with a satisfying click, but let’s not pretend you haven’t accidentally launched one across the room during an intense round of Super Smash Bros. Battery life is somewhere between “long enough for a road trip” and “hope you brought a power bank.” And don’t forget the original iconic kickstand: a fragile little appendage that screams, “Lean me against something sturdy, I beg you.” Despite its quirks, the Switch is a loveable handheld that brought gaming back to the couch without chaining you to it—perfect for anyone who can’t decide if they want to be a couch potato or a gaming vagabond.
