Ah, the lunch break game. It's one of the most popular ways to play video games, but also one of the most misunderstood. While almost any game with a save function can fit into a neat 30 or 45-minute session, there are certain games that are designed perfectly for that kind of experience, such as Hades and The Binding of Isaac.
But while those games tend to be quite complex — as well as flat-out difficult for newbies — my latest lunch break game is one that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to almost anyone. It's called Vampire Survivors, and it's managed to whip and slay its way to sit among the 20 most-played games on Steam. Not bad, considering it's barely out of alpha. (It’s currently only on PC, before anyone asks, though its creator plans to bring it to other platforms eventually.)
