    Hi people, I currently have two friends who have issues with their dominant arm and can't do anything but sit around and watch movies.

    I'd like to gift them some games to play with just one hand. Not the hentai variant, but something to keep them occupied with.

    Both own a steam deck. One is more into cozy games like Dorfromantik and the other into RPGs like BG3.

    One Finger Death Punch would be a good example as you can remap controls so you only need to press left and right on the D-Pad, but both of them don't really like that game.

    Do you know any games which can be played with one hand, preferably a controller or Steam deck? Using a mouse with your non dominant hand is annoying...

    All the games. Every last one of them.

    One handed controllers exist.

        I think you should be able to play Organ Trail one-handed. It's a zombie apocalypse version of Oregon Trail.

            If this is a long term thing, you might consider a left handed gaming mouse with programmable side keys.

            I hate to recommend Razer cuz their build quality has taken an absolute nose dive, but the only one I know of is the Razer Naga: https://www.razer.com/gaming-mice/razer-naga-left-handed-edition/rz01-03410100-r3m1

            Setting some of the side keys as WASD and the usual surrounding support keys (Q, E, R F, G, X, C) and you can play almost any game one-handed.

            The learning curve to get your brain to accept mouse movement and clicks with your left hand is annoying as fuck though.

                I don't understand. You have two friends, each with a good arm, that's two good arms. Tape your friends together and have them coordinate and BAM: two-handed gaming.

                Tape will come off when they sweat, better sew them together. And trim off those unnecessary arms, it's just efficiency.

                  Just FYI, there are a number of controllers out there for people who only have the use of one hand that are relatively cheap. I don't always have the use of both hands, and I can definitely say that it's possible to learn to use regular controllers effectively one handed as well. Once did a live stream specifically to show people what it's like and how to do it. Both the Logitech F710 and the 8Bitdo Pro 2 work really well in my opinion. People have laughed at me, but the 8bitdo Zero 2 surprisingly works really well too, but is much more limited for inputs and thus, more suited to retro games.

                  As for one handed games, here's an extensive steam list

                      sadly they live 80km apart from each other, and both are right handed, so they couldn't face each other while playing. We'd need a pretty weird dual-monitor setup if we'd tape them together.

                        For the friend who enjoys BG3, you can play Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous pretty much entirely with the mouse. The base game is 90% off on steam right now too.

                        Pathfinder has a massive learning curve compared to DnD 5e though, but that just means you can get an extra 50 hours of entertainment out of the game before you start the story, just by figuring out all the options when creating your character lol

                              How do I get into it? I've tried and it's not really sticking, to be honest.

                                Rafa Nadal is right handed and plays left handed. If someone has issues with a non-dominant hand then it's time to start making the other one dominant.

                                for most games you need two hands though 😉

                                  Divinity: Original Sin 2 is basically just more BG3 (though with less production quality) so that should be right up your RPG-loving friend's alley. Turn based combat and click-to-move lets you play the whole thing with just your mouse I'm pretty sure.

                                      Thank you citizen, you’re right! He’s got management written all over him!

                                        Hi people, I currently have two friends who have issues with their dominant arm and can't do anything but sit around and watch movies.

                                        I'd like to gift them some games to play with just one hand. Not the hentai variant, but something to keep them occupied with.

                                        Both own a steam deck. One is more into cozy games like Dorfromantik and the other into RPGs like BG3.

                                        One Finger Death Punch would be a good example as you can remap controls so you only need to press left and right on the D-Pad, but both of them don't really like that game.

                                        Do you know any games which can be played with one hand, preferably a controller or Steam deck? Using a mouse with your non dominant hand is annoying...

                                        If it's more permanent show them an Azeron Cyro at https://www.azeron.eu/
                                        It's a mouse with a thumbstick, you can play almost any PC game with one hand. Comes in both right and left handed versions.

                                          sadly they live 80km apart from each other, and both are right handed, so they couldn't face each other while playing. We'd need a pretty weird dual-monitor setup if we'd tape them together.

                                          All I'm hearing is excuses over excuses!
