If a game is on this list, it means it offers a lot of value (engaging, interesting, rewarding gameplay) for minimal time invested per play session. There is no specific ranking, only recommendations. You won’t find an individual GO30 article for every game listed here but be assured that if the game is on this list, we have played it and it certainly qualifies. If you don’t have a lot of spare time but still want to get some quality gaming into your daily/weekly routine, this is what we recommend:
