What I am searching for is for games that support touch screens and can be played with 1 finger / one hand. No action games with fake joysticks on the screen, just games that work with a single finger or at least one hand while lying in bed and trying to wind down. One very good example is Civilization V, which has a dedicated touch screen mode and is a turn based game. Also the windows included card games work good.

I tried to search for games on Steam, but unfortunately there is rarely a tag for touch screen support. Even Civ V with its dedicated touch screen mode has no tags telling about it in the Steam store, so it is hard to find games that work well.

I thought the “The Room” series could work well, because they are awesome on IOS devices, but the Windows version on a touch screen is cumbersome to use. So you can not even look out for mobile games that also exist for Windows.

If someone has some recommendations, I would appreciate that very much :-)

Edit: Changed Civ IV to V!

    That´s quite a list! Thank you :-) I even have a few on that list and will try them out. I did not think about The Witness, but it´s worth a try. I did not finis it on PC, but it has some really hard puzzles in it that keep you occupied for a while at the same place without the need to move around a lot.

    The Hexcells series is awesome, played through all of them (of course not through all the random ones in Infinite ;-)), but might be worth to try again on the tablet. I tried Tametsi (also a puzzler), but it did not scale with the High DPI screen and was super tiny.
