Have a win 7 mouseless laptop I'd like to put a game on and play for funs. Typically my go to game for olden computers is Heroes of Might and Magic 3 or maybe Civ 4. Any recommendations?

Diablo2, WC3, and RTSs would be tricky because lack of mouse and I'd prefer no rush to my actions so I can simultaneously be coding and just do minibreaks taking a turn or part of a turn here and there

Void Stranger, Chip's Challenge, and BABA IS YOU are all Sokoban style puzzle games with minimal performance requirements and no need for a mouse.

Siralim Ultimate is a creature collector RPG that will run on a potato and provide endless grinding, if you're into that.

The Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters of the first six games are all excellent if you're into JRPGs.

Dungeons of Dredmor if you like rogue-likes, or you could go old-school and pick up NetHack or ADOM.

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
