Looking for audiobook-listening games that involve straight-forward logic puzzles, but not picross.
Bit of a weird request, but in managing my ADHD I've found that there's a specific niche of low-engagement focus games that make it way easier to focus on details when I'm listening to audiobooks or other things. I've played through every power-wash simulator level multiple times, and recently finished the entirety of Mark FFrench's mosaic games. and I'm looking for more puzzle games like that. Simple logic rules that can be applied without needing complex abstract thought or much engagement. This doesn't necessarily mean "Easy", though. Minesweeper on the hardest mode still works because it's just applying a set of rules and deductions.
There's plenty of websites (Like this whole network or just minesweeper) that can procedurally generate infinite puzzles, but I'm looking for something that adds a bit more framing with a finite collection. It's easier to get into something when there's an end in sight rather than just being endless, and checking off a list makes it easier to stay engaged. Mosaic of the Strange was perfect, with exactly the right puzzle engagement requirement and some neat narrative additions with a story.
Steam is full of these, but they're all just picross. Just... so much picross. And that's just one of the styles of these logic puzzles I can't get into. It's either too small, or too big. Games like minesweeper can be across an infinite grid and you can just focus on one area at a time, but picross requires keeping a whole ever-expanding row in your head and it's too much to focus on that and focus on a book.
Things I've tried:
Power Wash Simulator and Power Wash Simulator 2 - Excellent for this
Mark FFrench's Mosaic Games, particularly Mosaic of the Strange - Excellent for this. The bits of narrative between puzzles were just big enough to be interesting without taking too long, and the solving is just the right level of engagement I'm looking for. I also love the ones that are just one gigantic grid to chip away at a bit at a time.
Mewseum Masterpieces - Also great for this.
Nodes Game - Good in short bursts but too simple for extended listening.
The Artisan of Glimmith - Decent enough but the hidden object level selection brought me out of things.
Satisfactory - Works but only when building out structures. I need to pause to do any planning or problem solving in the game.
Hardspace Shipbreaker - Works really well after playing it enough that I don't need to think much.
Islands of Insight A lot of the puzzles were alright but the weird MMO between them was too much. Some narrative between levels is fine but that was just a lot.
Anything with word puzzles: Doesn't work. It's using the same part of my brain as listening.
3D puzzle games, escape rooms, anything with changing systems or lateral thinking: Too involved and distracting.
Detective deduction games: Love these, but not while listening to stuff. Takes too much focus.
Truck simulator, Lawn Mower Simulator, [[Vehicle]] Simulator - Just couldn't get into them. These apparently work for some people but they're just not for me.
Any suggestions for games like this would be very appreciated. I know it's very specific but the new PWS DLC doesn't come out for months and I'm desperate.
