Admittedly, some of the games I’m about to mention take time to get good enough at to turn your brain off, but here’s some of my favorites for listening to audiobooks.

Bloons TD6 Any roguelite - currently I’m loving balatro and spelunky 2 Team Fortress 2 Backpack battles Any MMO - my favorites are Guild Wars 2 and Project Gorgon Tetris Effect Mario sports games Mini Metro Kingdom

In general, I find it helpful to tell yourself that it’s totally okay to “lose.” When you are listening to an audiobook, you should be spending most of your attention on that. You don’t need to take the game seriously.
