The Short Game

We love a game that respects our time. But what if you don’t have *any* time? Do two things at once, of course!

To celebrate Raygan’s return amidst new baby mode, we praise games that let us multitask — whether we’re watching tv, listening to podcasts, or even completing a chore or two.

When should you multitask? When shouldn’t you? What sorts of games are good fits? What games require every single bit of your attention? All this and more!


The Short Game is supported directly by our listeners on Patreon! Supporters at any level get access to our Discord, where we discuss games, plan episodes, and talk about what we are playing in real time. You can also support us by writing a review on Apple Podcasts!
