Hey Guys.

After about ten years my father finally agreed to move to Linux. Because his devices I gifted him are not "supported for Windows 11".

And it is a blast - He loved Gnome for having his two games: Mahjong and Solitair.

Everything works flawlessly; He observed me updating Debian to trixie within an instant to get him his OneDrive back.

Anyhow: I would like to recommend some alternative Games he may like; Just to show off hisnnew operating system (of choice, yay).

If this isn't clear: He isn't gaming "Fullscreen". He chills for 30 Minutes with just his mice infront of the computer.

Any alternative to games would be appreciated as well.

Cheers

Townscaper.

Click buttons and build cute, tiny villages.

Zero pressure. Easy to pick up and put down.

Awesome suggestion. It has a browser preview!

Steam may be some indirection he may be troublesome about (hope this isn't lost in translation).

In the same vein I will name "Tiny Glade".
