Enjoyed Desktop Tower Defence, play for free online. Also enjoyed a similar Android App. If you like construction type games it is smashing.
Apart from that, don't really play video games much, due to (a) they seem to require a massive commitment. No 30 minute blasts anymore. and (b) being on Linux doesn't help.
Recently learned Minecraft basics but even that seemed to take forever.Comment

Any suggestions? I tend to steer towards 'building' type games..nomadd liked this postComment

Skylines is a good, very in-depth building game. Another that is pretty fun is Anno 2070 (and the upcoming Anno 2205 looks set to be even better.) It's different in that it's more mission/campaign orientated than Skylines, which is more of a sandbox game.
Even with a "No magic" policy, I'd give Endless Legend a go. It's not a huge part of it (nothing like Age of Wonders III, another great game), and the game is very friendly to casual gaming. It has a sandbox gameplay style but the random missions that come up give it a more structured feel.Last edited by Zero Liability; 7 October 2015, 22:30.Comment

The original is still the best of the series... though in later patches they've dumbed down Mortain hill defense to make it much easierOriginally posted by The Spartan View PostCompany of Heroes for me at the moment until Starcraft II: Legacy of the Void is out.

I dont play them any more (I kinda stopped at Doom & Quake) but I actually enjoy watching my daughter play splatoon on the Wiiu.
I'm very impressed with it.
Other half is playing Yoshis Woolly world - or Willy world as I call it
I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
