    No, all I’ve got are these kazoos and other assorted noisemakers that you can take home to terrorize entertain your parents.

    Being an uncle is pure joy.

        Those are the types of things I took as life lessons more than whatever useless “how to do your taxes” or “don’t mix blah blah and whatever or the fumes will kill you” BS they put into the lesson plans. It’s like the old expression: when you pull the pin on a grenade and drop it on the floor, you don’t stand around to watch it go off.

    As a boring-ass adult, then no.

    For me, when I get the chance to play games it’s gonna be on a big screen with a proper controller where I can actually enjoy it, where the experience doesn’t feel compromised.

    The types of games that work well on phones and feel ideally tailored to phones like tappy physics games and gem puzzlers and other stuff aren’t games in the sense of having an “experience” they are more like time-passing distractions.

    And if I need a time-passing distraction when I’m sat waiting at the bus stop then well - that’s why I’ve got Lemmy.

      I have 1 game I really play on my phone. Bloons TD 6.

      Even on desktop I haven’t found any td games quite as good.
