Extremely specific game request thread. I love what I've come to call 'Semi-Idle' games. I work from home and am determined to act my wage so I like to have fun while on the clock. I'm not going to disregard work entirely but I want to play video games. So I leave a game running on my third monitor.
Enter my need for a game that doesn't demand all of my attention, but is a little more hands-on than a screen saver with increasing numbers. A game where you are rewarded for letting things run, but it's not the entire point of the game.
Some examples of what I consider 'Semi-Idle' with justifications:
-Project Zomboid: Game incentivizes basically sitting around and passing the time. I like to loot in spurts and then leave my character eating/working out/reading while I work.
-Super WorldBox Godsim sandbox. I can spend time setting up a world which I then let play out on its own, occasionally jumping in to disturb the peace.
-Fallout 76 Fallout 76 lets you set up a player-made camp where others can visit and buy from your stores. I find it enjoyable to leave it running and see who comes through.
-Sonic Adventure 1/2 I'll play a level or two and then idle in the chao garden, just taking in the vibes and watching my chao do what they do.
Clicker games and other idle-genre giants aren't really my thing, but if you know of a clicker/idle game that might fit the description, feel free to recommend those, too.
