For a ~30 min game, I like:

• Race to the raft for coop
• Race for the galaxy for competitive

For a super short filler game I like Love letter, I see that one has been mentioned a few times already!

I want to add that if you have an old or shitty pc you should probably go for the original games. Or if you simply don't want to spend more money (assuming you already own the old games).

vegan, city dwelling, young affluent, anti-capitalist hippies...

Yes, misconceptions.. Totally not me

It does for us! I see that it says 40-60 min on bgg, so it may be different for others. We are usually quite slow though, probably due to analysis paralysis which is not really an issue in this game in my experience.

Looks great! How do you make something like this? Do you have do draw everything by hand, or are there tools to make it easier/faster?
