No, I don’t mean video games a whole, I’m talking more along the lines of playing yoyos, jackstones (or knucklebones), teks and pogs (only us FIlipinos understand it), etc.

TL;DR: Outside games

I still play Yoyos and knucklebones and even pogs in this day and age

    I work outside and a few months ago I found a yo-yo in the ground. It works perfectly fine, it’s not dirty, no reason to waste it, so I slipped it into my work-vest and keep it in my locker. Every now and then when the break room’s empty I yo-yo for a few minutes while sippin’ a soda.

            You’re a rare breed lol, I’ve never in my life seen anyone playing jacks but seriously if I ever have a child, I want them to play jacks, just in case they find themselves in an alley and want to break vagrancy laws in the 1910-20s

              Much better than iPad lol. This is why I wanna be a housewife, I get to teach kids how to play teks, pogs, jacks, slings, etc.

              I’m gonna add some in a gaming setup tbh

    I’m not sure if they count, but I do Rubik’s cube and solitaire. All the yo-yos I’ve had were cheap plastic garbage that broke in a day, I used to play chess, but no one wants to play with me, and I’ve only played jacks like once. I’m not sure what the other games you mentioned are.

    I have a friend that had a big ass yoyo collection and it’s pretty neat. I suck but he’s pretty good.
