Coffee-like / Sleep-Away games to Stay Awake

LightParticle

Hi. Im interesting in PC games which can be used as coffee-like stimulate activity which can wake your brains up and can help improve stay later at night awoke.聽

For the most part "accidentally: I've discovered that Counter-Strike Online can't move me into bed untill 4 AM and I thought Its good idea to use video games like this.聽

But Counter-Strike for me was a little overkill because of I'm too addicted to it, If I play I can't stop round after round hour after an hour. And the problem with CS I founded is you are not want to sleep while you playing it, after you quit it's not too much time past away before you really want to go to bed.

So I switch to a Quake Multiplayer, 15 minutes of which can give at almost extra hour of night time.聽And it's really聽better then drink coffee. Secrets I think is that you need to active and focus your brain to find/search opponents , move to map, act and react really fast in multidimensional space which most of the Quake maps be.

I tried racing games but it's not really the same because for the most time you need to just push the gas/break and overtake opponents and watch traffic. It's like activates only 15-20% of your brain focus. I mean it can be really interesting/highly demanding focus聽races or chases but chances that you got races like this anytime you run the games it's not too big.

So I think Quake IMHO is the best thing that I know that can do it.

  • It's聽 simple,
  • quick, fast,
  • mind focus demanding,
  • works every time
  • take not longer time to get the boost

15 minutes and you're ready to go.

That's type of quality I'm looking for.聽

And It's not too addictive. I think for the most PC videogame聽players, I think populary CS over Quake speaks of itself, but no offence to fans, it's a really cool game :).聽

What are other games which can woke your mind, can keep you stay awake and kind of gas up your brain and night activity?

This games are not be necessary high-graphics聽games it can be just like browser games or small little games with no graphics at all.

Well it's my situation.

But it can be using聽in day time too when you like tired or can't energize yourself to do some stuff. I mean, people shouldn't drink liters of coffee everyday but they do it. I just think you can use videogame to boost or wake your brain focus by this entertaning activity.

And is there any reason for staying awake all night? Are you training for a night job or what? 馃槃

I recently got back for a bit into Quake Live - very fun, very hectic. You'll get your ass handed to you repeatedly but it's still enjoyable.

Modern Warfare - not even the game but just the raging that keeps me awake playing it. Like I am normally quite calm when playing games, but this one.. this one does things to me.

Doom 2016/Eternal - you kill demons with industrial metal blasting in your ears. What else is there to say?
