Well boys, I fucked my left arm up bad. Cracked the radius and threw the other arm out of socket and it doesn't feel right.

Recommended some good vidya to play with one hand, please? PC, Ps4, Xbox One, N64, SNES, DC, Genesis, NES, OG Xbox, anything. I have a large collection and what I don't physically have I can emulate. Give me your favorites.

Front Mission on SNES is godly, btw.

Sorry for late reply, I'm on heavy drugs and have been sleeping way more than usual.

I got a Onewheel. Loved it for an hour. Had more fun than I thought possible. Turned it on "Delerium" mode and wiped out literally 5 seconds later. Broke my radius on my left arm and my right arm came out of the socket. I slammed it back in and crawled to the sidewalk and tried not to go into shock. I'm gonna ride it again, it's way too much fun. I'm almost 31 now and I skateboarded from 10 to 23 years old. This is my first injury like this.

do you like 4x? 4x and other turn based games are easily playable with one hand. If you like 4x you better have played Masters of Magic, Alpha Centauri and Masters of Orion 2.

Protip: You can play any NES or GB/GBC (or anything else that only needs two or fewer buttons) game one-handed with a modern controller in an emulator. Set L1/L2 (or LB/LT, etc) as A/B.
Shit, I just realized you said it's your LEFT arm that's broken. Well, you could still make do with the face buttons as a d-pad, or the right analog stick if you don't mind that.
Besides that trick, I recommend Catrap, as well as Kwirk and its sequel Amazing Tater, on Game Boy. They're all puzzle games that mainly use the d-pad, with A/B only used for undoing moves. Those games have no real "action", and only move when you do, so they're easy to play no matter how crippled you are. The challenge is in finding the puzzle solutions.
