What I am searching for is for games that support touch screens and can be played with 1 finger / one hand. No action games with fake joysticks on the screen, just games that work with a single finger or at least one hand while lying in bed and trying to wind down. One very good example is Civilization V, which has a dedicated touch screen mode and is a turn based game. Also the windows included card games work good.

I tried to search for games on Steam, but unfortunately there is rarely a tag for touch screen support. Even Civ V with its dedicated touch screen mode has no tags telling about it in the Steam store, so it is hard to find games that work well.

I thought the “The Room” series could work well, because they are awesome on IOS devices, but the Windows version on a touch screen is cumbersome to use. So you can not even look out for mobile games that also exist for Windows.

If someone has some recommendations, I would appreciate that very much :-)

Edit: Changed Civ IV to V!

    I’ll need to double check them on my touchscreen laptop this evening, but 95% sure that both Dorfromantik and Townscaper work well with the touchscreen, and they’re also some of the calmest games in existence. I’ll also check Stardew Valley, which I haven’t played on my laptop, but the Android version is compatible with touchscreen so the Windows version may be too.
