Hell yeah! Thank you so much.

Then there’s eternal classics like Stardew Valley, Balatro, Terraria,FTL, Into the Breach, Slay the Spire or Binding of Isaac: Rebirth

Did you check my installed games? Sure, I’ve replaced FTL with Void War (same game tbh) and play Slay the Spire on my phone (and laptop via screen mirroring) but that list is ~80% of what I’m looking to move on from!

I’ve found success with static backgrounds and turn-based games. I have made due with 1600x90 at 50% texture rendering for CK3 but that’s different. I’m not sure if they’re on sale but for the sake of listing more laptop friendly games: Across the Obelisk, For the King, Tales of Maj’eyal, Loop Hero and Project Zomboid do well.

Minecraft and Rimworld depends on modlist. I tried to downsize my 150-odd Rimworld mods and ended up with 200, c’est la vie.
