ABOUT One-Handed Gamer

My goal is to recommend games that can be played using solely one hand.

My goal is to recommend games that can be played using solely one hand (One-Handed Gamer = OHG).

The steam curator page will focus on recommending games with that in mind (in other words, there will be no 'not-recommended', because that would be the majority of the list).
I don't want to necessarily judge the games as good or bad, but whether they can or can't be played with a single hand, so do notice that some (maybe many?) of the games recommended here might not suit your taste.
I'll try to point out how the gameplay is in regards to this constraint. For example, some games can be played solely using the mouse. Others might need eventual input from the keyboard. But if the game pauses to let you do that, then I might think it's suited for this group/curator.
Another important point is that I will focus on games that are good for OHG from the get-go. Many more games would be able to get on this list with the help of external software and some other gadgets, like a fancy mouse. But again, I'll focus on games that are readily available to be played by OHG. I'll recommend a few games that are in the middle term and I'll explain my gripes. These games will be tagged as 'informational'.

Also, notice that my purpose is not to give a comprehensive review of any game. I usually only include how it classifies as a OHG (for example, if it's mouse only, I usually don't elaborate further, as those are point and click. But if you need to press 'esc' to access the menu, I'll disclose that) and also what's the genre of the game, but I won't give you more information.
My idea is to simply inform you if that particular game can or cannot be played with a single hand, something that can be very important for some people, but might be hard to figure out just reading/watching reviews.
So use this curator to see if the game is OHG or not, nothing else.

I test all of the games myself and I believe I haven't made any mistake, but do message me if I did something wrong or if you have good recommendations.

A few disclaimers:

1 - There are two old curators with the same theme, but it seems they haven't updated it for a few years. I am not related to them.

2 - I broke my arm once and had to use a cast for a while but I'm currently able to use both my arms.
At that time, I played many games because I had lots of free time, and I created a collection on my account with OHG.
As a gamer, that made me think about people with any form of difficulties playing games, whether it is temporary or permanent, and I decided to share that collection.
Obviously, with time I "reviewed" all of my original collection, but there are still many more to come :)
I think games are one of the most democratic forms of entertainment available, and I hope, with this group/curator, I can expose new games to people in need to play a game with a single hand, for whatever reason, and fill the void left for people looking exclusively for OHG.

Thanks and have fun :D

I recently lost all use of my left hand, minus basically my thumb but the wrist can't bend or use they keyboard even then because the nerve damage doesnt allow it to support itself. The prognosis of getting it back currently doesnt look good. Then on top of this I have been stuck inside a single room which i cant leave because other health issues so losing the ability to touch type and game has destroyed my world. I only tell you this because this list has seriously saved me from going crazy and losing my only escape. You a total stranger have really helped change my life more than i can describe, and you have to working hands now.

Keep up the good work and truly thank you for continuing to think of others even when you are no longer in the same position.
