What about games on Apple Watch?

[Lonewolf888]

I'm curious, does/would anyone actually play games on their Smartwatch? A little poll here: http://www.crosspoll.eu/poll/175319151

By the way, I'm not using the built in polls because I'm asking people on more than one forum.

I don't know who would want to

Lifeline was quite engaging.

There are a few games for smartwatches, so there has to be someone playing them

I'm guessing kids would.

Lifeline was quite engaging.

I'm still on the fence about purchasing it. After seeing it though, I think they could do a lot more conversation/interactive book style games.

"80 days" on your Apple Watch, anyone?

Clearly there are people who will play games on their watches. I'm not one of them, not yet anyway.

Saying that I have played around with ideas for a couple of, kind of, mini game extensions for my games. While I do find them entertaining, I still wouldn't spend the time playing them myself.
I just don't see the watch as a suitable platform for gaming, small screen, uncomfortable playing position for any length of time and the bloody screen keeps switching off. Which is why I'm not incorporating any, yet.

I agree I once thought games on the watch were daft, But I think Trivia Crack is great to play on there and now it's one of my most used apps on my watch. I wouldn't play anything else though.

I played this game called Chairman Cow, I think it's pretty entertaining since it's got a good storyline. It runs really well on the apple watch too, and I enjoy it's artwork.

TOBY is entertaining...

I liked Lifeline a lot, but I felt it was a bit short and suffered from pacing issues. Day 1/2 went at a good pace, but by the end of it, I was getting pinged for story updates like every 10 minutes.
