Younger users of Lemmy: Did you ever love a game that you just really sucked at?
So I was watching a few youtubes and remembered how the vast majority (of like the ten) nes games me and my sister had were hard as all hell.

What do you all do on your phones that isn't doom-scrolling or mindless mini games?
I find myself checking out pretty often and just making myself feel bad about the state of the world, or killing half an hour on stupid games that I could 100% live without. This is probably pretty common, and I’m wondering what other people have found as a way to do more productive things with their phones in the downtime.
