People who play games are usually divided into those who love competitive games and those who like story games. Players in the first category usually play LoL, Valorant, CS:GO and similar games for many years. Players in the other category mostly prefer single-player story games and immerse themselves in the flow of a long-term adventure.
Of course, some of these games are short, while others are long, as if they were specially designed to never end. We have prepared a list for players who want to spend their hours in long-term games. If you want, let’s move on to our list without further ado.
