    I think Apple Arcade has so many good games without transactions.

    • Goat Simulator
    • Monster Train
    • Grindstone
    • Slay the Spire
    • Balatro
    • Angry Birds
    • Hello Kitty Island

    But my mom just plays solitaire. I try sitting with her and playing new games but she doesn’t go back to the new games. I know she has found new games in the past—she played all of Plants vs Zombies—but that is a long time ago.

      Most people allow habit to dictate what activities they do. They don’t make a conscious choice. Without a conscious choice to play Balatro regularly, a habit can’t be formed. Once a person sacrifices conscious control over their daily routine, it’s very hard to come back. They’ve become a zombie.
