Play more simultaneous-play games. Captain Sonar, Space Alert, Galaxy Truckers, and Sidereal Confluence are all really good games with basically no downtime.
- nandemo 9y agoOther games that use simultaneous action: 7 Wonders and one of my top 5 games, Race for the Galaxy.
- RangerScience 9y agoYes! Both of those are excellent.
- baldfat 9y agoTell that to 4X Multiplayer Games or even Advance Squad Leader (ASL can take an hour a turn in real life) Down time isn't always bad, especially if you have youtube open while you wait.
- zentiggr 9y agoAfter playing a decent chunk of the original Squad Leader, ASL always seemed like "WW2 action for Star Fleet Battles fans". Define every edge case and interaction and any amount of in-game time can stretch to fill all available real time... (See GDW's Fire in the East :)
