Topic: Age appropriate single joystick games

Hi.

I am looking for age appropriate PC games for 20-30 year old adults who have had a brain injury, and need to re-learn some motor skills for controlling a hand held joystick and probably one switch.

Something relatively slow perhaps, or at least not requiring fast reactions skills to progress through the game.

Tomb raider is a possibility but even that requires some good reaction times, multiple buttons and dexterity to make progress.

maybe something educational or murder mystery, perhaps even something like the old BBC Hobbit.

Any examples would be greatley appreciated.

Geoff.

Re: Age appropriate single joystick games

I suggest strategy games, if the person is into that genre. Although you do miss the "right click" if you only have a joystick and one switch, it should be possible.

Ghost master springs to mind as a stragegy game that doesn't require fact reaction skills and can be played very well with just a joystick and a switch if my memory serves me correctly. I found the game highly enjoyable to.
