Youre on your lunch break, or maybe youre just bored and need something to do for 20 minutes. Thats where short games come in. Theyre little experiences you can completely finish in a single sitting. Sometimes there are puzzles to solve or challenges to face, and sometimes there arent. These games can be anything, really.Anyone who likes games will appreciate all of the things you can cram into an experience that wont take ages to see through. Theres nothing wrong with spending hundreds of hours in a big RPG, but there are plenty of smaller games that can be just as meaningful in a fraction of the time. And the best part is that a lot of them cost nothing to play.This list couldnt cover every great short game. There are buckets of them on Steam and Itch.io, so if you like what you see, you should go on a short-game binge. But I picked some of the best ones under 30 minutes that will leave an impression on you.
