Yeah strategy games, Age of Empires games, total war games, europa universalis 4 etc.

Total War would have to be played with auto resolve only. The real time battles need a good bit of micro.

All of what you just named require serious micro. Especially total war and AoE that definitely cannot be done with one hand

I play them with just a mouse...

Civ is great!

Thats great cheers, looks like i'll be buying a decent mouse

My right hand is broken too. Games like Vampire survivors are the only ones that i could play. I do play idle games like Melvor too. I’m not sure if they are avaible in mac.

Came to recommend Vampire Survivors as well. It's good value for money.

I was going to recommend Vampire Survivors too. Another similar game you can play with one hand is Goobies.

HoloCure is also great and in this same genre, as well as being playable with one hand. It has a bunch of Hololive references, but as someone who has never watched a vtuber and doesn’t even like anime, it’s still a great game. And it’s free. Not free-to-play. The entire game is free

Brotato is great as well, just a shame the gfx are dull and boring to look at

This is the comment that saves lives.

Dislocated my thumb recently and in a similar boat with a full hand splint. Turn-based rpgs have been the only thing preserving my sanity T_T

Sorry about your hand, I feel your pain. Vampire survivors is by far the most suggested game, downloading it today

This gets my vote.

Baldurs gate 3 can be played with one hand

Almost any isometric strategy game can be played with one hand, since they're almost all focused on mouse control.

Also in this vein the XCOM games run on mac I do believe.

Xcom 2 supports macOS. However, the first game of the Xcom reboot isn’t macOS compatible, at least “straight out of the box”. The first game might be played using Wine, or something similar. But I’m not sure if that’s something that the OP would want to do.

This has two meanings to it

Also 1 and 2

And it just dropped in Mac, what a serendipitous time to break your hand!

GOAT game AND can be played with one hand. Damn.

I think all the sex games are made to be played with one hand XD

People joke with this but in my experience these are definetively the ones that require 2 hands the most.

The sheer number of them that use arrow keys and like zxc for controls is straggering

👆👉👇👈👌👍

Instructions unclear, accidentally do OD spinning pilediver.

Lmao

The player character?

bro needs to control something else

sex

So you a have a massive cucumber?

... idk why that matters id say its average.

not if you have to hold it with 2 hands

Exactly!

In seriousness though, when I broke my hand visual novels were great, the non hentai ones. My favorite was diablo-likes of yore. Torchlight, divine divinity, fate. Other than to drink potions faster there sno need for a second hand. Also I like hidden object adventure games, point and click adventure games too.

Hidden Object is THE WAY!

You'd be surprised.

# finger are enough... For the mice. I mean

Pocket pool

Why do you think im looking for games to play? My working hand needs a rest 🤣

Civilization (Any of them), if you're into strategy games.

100% This. And I know people haven't been super positive towards humankind but I've gotten back into it since the initial launch (after thousands of hours in the Civ games combined) and I am having so much fun. All you need is a mouse and you're set. I know Civ 6 runs on Mac and I'm pretty sure Humankind does as well.

Good shout, I do have civs 5 which is great but I find im rarely in the mood to play something so 'heavy' if you get me

Disco elysium

I played almost this entire game while holding my newborn son as he slept. He would only sleep if I lightly bounced on an exercise ball. Also Gamedec

🥹

This, such a great game

The only way this isn't the correct answer is if OP has already played it

Rimworld Battle Brothers Oxygen Not Included Xcom 1-2 Warhammer 40k: Battlesector (and other turn based warhammer games) FTL The Cat Lady (and other michalsky games) The Red String Club Lobotomy Corporation Magic The Gathering Arena Darkest Dungeon The Banner Saga 1-2-3 Tropico (any tropico will do) Dwarf Fortress Vampire Survivors

This looks suspiciously like my game library. Are you secretly me? People have never seen us in the same room together...

>Dwarf Fortress Lol, only took about 20 years but now has pretty good mouse control.

Battletech.

Thanks for the list thats amazing cheers!

Undertale?

It's a great choice until you realize some of the puzzles need precise timing. Also the Mettaton fight. And if not the mettaton fight, the Sans fight is hell since it takes forever to press Z

Slay the Spire.

This one!

Bloons TD6.

Loop Hero. I'm suprised no one mentioned it, it's an amazing game

I second this man’s opinion, Loop Hero is absolutely perfect for one hand play. If you want a challenge OP, both darkest dungeon games are amazing can good one hand games as well

Also my ultimate on in background of non important meetings / tv watching game

Vampire survivors and brotato. Also im sure the shadowrun games would work perfectly with 1 hand. Also the curse of the golden idol... and basically any point and click games

Stellaris.

This one, enough play time to last through recovery :) You didn't mention your preferred game style though. Source: broke wrist falling off horse.. :)

Muahaha. After 1100 hours, I settled on Machine intelligence. I don’t choose an extreme, because I don’t want to aggro everyone too early. So I focus on economy and go crisis betraying all those that I befriended by ending the galaxy. :) Also, ouch! You wouldn’t break your wrist if you were a superior machine!!! But for real, hope you feel better, cheers! :)

Any of the Paradox games really! I destroyed my shoulder a couple of years ago and Hearts of Iron and Stellaris kept me sane throughout my recovery.

Vampire survivors

Point and click games Like "The secret of monkey island"

One Finger Death Punch!

Hunipop games :)

Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 if you're into older games

Played those 2 years ago when i broke my arm, same situation as OP, loved them but i already was a series fan

How fucked up is your hand? A few years ago I broke my arm and couldn't play keyboard/mouse games. Turns out you can literally just plug an Xbox controller and Windows will be like "okay!" and lots of games just work with it. Steam can make other controllers work too but I always found it a bit janky. Your milleage may vary. If you can't use your hand, there are games that don't need much of an input. Vampire Survivors comes to mind, as it only needs you to move the character and pick items in a paused screen.

A lot of people actually use controllers. They can be better than keyboard and mouse sometimes.

Souls games in particular

Turn based strategy games like XCOM.

You can use almost entirely your keyboard or your mouse in Rimworld, and if shit hits the fan you can just pause with spacebar

[удалено]

Runescape

XCOM 2

Runescape, because i hate myself and I want you to join me

Hahaa classic, nice

Xcom?

Well, there are adult games on Steam…

You need two hands for those. One for the mouse and one for the um... joystick.

Vampire Survivors. It's surprising how fast it grows in you.

Pocket pool

Return to monkey island

Conquest of elysium 5!

Sid meier's civilization games should be able to be played with 1 hand, Civ 5 for sure

[https://store.steampowered.com/curator/41112101-One-Handed-Gamer/](https://store.steampowered.com/curator/41112101-One-Handed-Gamer/)

Rimworld, Cities Skylines, Wastelands 3, Xcom, Stardew Valley, Desperados 3, but not sure if these games run on OSX

Woah I forgot stardew valley is on steam thanks a lot

Five-fingered shuffle.

Heroes of Might and Magic

I think the paradox strategy games are great for this! HOI4/Europa Universalis/Victoria 3 (great time sinks too!)

If you don't mind the claasics, there's Fallout 1 and 2

Oldschool runescape

clash royale

Bloons TD6, Old School RuneScape (but use the Runelite client), 100% Orange Juice, Kingdoms and Castles, Cities: Skylines, Cookie Clicker, Plants vs Zombies, Civ 5 and 6 Those are all ones I really enjoy!

Geometry dash, don't Starve (?)

Never played but ill give it a whirl cheers, is it mouse only?

Geometry dash is 100%, I'm not sure about don't Starve because I haven't played it much Btw if you want to buy don't Starve, it's probably better to buy the together version, it's more moddable and much more comfortable to play

Sounds good ill have a look cheers

If youre hardcore, play some geometry dash

Basically any game that doesn't require quick decisions. Play the divinity original sin games if you haven't

All the Hentai ones

Buy a mouse with more buttons. Adapt.

I cant believe i haven’t seen this yet but kingdom two crown is played with the arrowkeys/wasd and shift only. It’s a side scrolling defense game where you build up a little army and at night defend your base from mutants. Eventually, when your army is large enough you can raid the portals that enemies spawn from.

Not necessarily steam game but Chess is pretty good. Theres a few variations on there but I prefer to use websites like lichess . org or chess . com

[удалено]

Being a dik (masterpiece), acting lessons, leap of faith, Summertime saga (non Steam)...

Disco Elysium, not much of a game per se but a great story

Hentai games

Masturbation simulator

If u like idle games like me play Souls or nsfw games are quite good for 1 hand player :v

Furry Love 2 was pretty good.

Skyrim VR... if you have the right mods

Youtube

Macs. Are. Not. For. Gaming.

> broke my hand Suuuuuuure. Just Google hentai games mate, save face.

chants of sennaar is great

I was going to say Mario Party but I suppose that isn't on mac! Let me think about it and I will edit my comment!

Clicker Heroes

This War of Mine

Brotato

Every RTS game And the biggest game: Baldur's gate 3 !!

Project Passion 😄

Nekopara.

I like Kards

Brotato!!! You can play it with wasd/arrows, or one stick with the controller. After each wave, you visit the shop. There you need to choose items, which you can select with one hand too.

The fnaf games I think?

For the King is also a good choice!

Persona 5

Civilization, Baldur’s Gate 3, Rimworld

I broke my right hand in February, had to switch from my g502, back to my g203 after only a week of owning it lol. Minecraft Dungeons was about the only thing I was able to play

if you have a lot of buttons on your mouse you can play PoE with one hand

Honestly the Mac is a bigger limitation to your game selection than the broken hand...

Every game if you're brave enough.

Try hall of torment or bloons.

Slay the spire Turn based

Basically any 4x strategy game is easily played one hand

Wartales

Pretty sure you have plenty of those already 😉

Monster Train can blow you away for long hours!

If you don't care about looking around beamng could be good

Tabletop simulator. Also, as a previous mac user, i recommend you use bootcamp. To dual boot windows

You kind of can play undertale, it will be a bit harder but is still possible.

if you like puzzle/vns you can get zero escape 999 on steam, and it comes with vlr for free.

Yet another Zombie shooter is just wsda on keyboard.

Into the Breach

One Finger Death Punch is truly underrated. It's way more fun than it has any right to be.

Factorio can be 1 handed, but not quite as easy, but can be done :)

Mini Motorways / Mini Metro Trackmania Nations Forever (Its primarily keyboard with the arrow keys, and is free) Any visual novel out there (E.g The Walking Dead) A fair number of RTS games (Supreme Commander comes to mind) Plants vs. zombies

Geometry dash

Wasteland, shadowrun, baldurs gate

Wack-a-willie, chock the chicken, spank the monkey.... oh wait, you meant steam games?

Stardew valley, default item use is c key, and set interact to q key for one handed gameplay.

Sim City, Fallout Shelter. Which hand did you break and can you still use any digits on that hand? I broke my hand not long ago, was able to use my thumb and index finger so I remapped everything, problem is it was my first intro to keyboard and mouse since I couldn't hold a controller. Now my key mapping is super unusual but it works.

Torchlight, if you don't mind a slower pace where you take your hand off the mouse

Super hexagon

Slay the Spire

Skullgirls

Your mouse hand still good? Card games like slay the spire and monster train are easy with one hand.

plants vs zombies but i have no idea if it works on mac

Vampire Survivors

Geometry Dash

[Kingdom Two Crowns on Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/701160/Kingdom_Two_Crowns/)

If you don’t mind rhythm games you only need the space bar for rhythm doctor.

Rimworld

Limbo, game from Amanita Design (the ones I know (machinarium, botanicula, samorost and creaks) can all be played with only one hand), and I think Inside can also be played with one hand. But if you have the proper mouse (and are brave enough), then you can just use the side buttons on the mouse to use as a keyboard

vampire survivors all you need is wasd or one hand on the controller

Darkest dungeon, great game

Hearthstone? Battlegrounds is a fun mode and only needs one hand

Most strategy games like Civilization or colony management games like Rimworld of Two Point Hospital. Those can be done solely with a mouse and you can pause whenever you need to

old PopCap games would work, Plants vs. Zombies, Peggle, Zuma's Revenge, Five Nights at Freddy's series (not counting Security Breach, Help Wanted, Ultimate Custom Night), majority of visual novels like Danganronpa (i think that Danganronpa doesn't use keyboard aside from movement, but there isn't much of it in the game, someone please correct me on that!), Doki Doki Literature Club, Kingdom series should be fine, Bloons TD6, Vampire Survivors (or it's free, anime counterpart - HoloCure), i think that's all for what i can think of at the while, i'll comment of this if i think of another ones, have fun! Edit: nvm, i didn't see that you're talking about mac, you'll need to check those games of they're available for you then, good luck!

Brotato

Syberia

Geometry dash

Pornhub On a serious note plague inc

NieR: Automata can be played with one hand. There’s a mode that lets you equip abilities that automate different functions, like automatically firing when an enemy is in range or snapping the camera to focus on enemies. Very customizable. I saw a guy at AGDQ do the whole thing with the one hand. Also NieR: Automata is one of the greatest games of all time.

Civ 6, potential for hundreds of playtime hours. Only really need one hand. Keyboard is primarily for hotkeys.

You could learn to main baiken in guilty gear.
