I believe in the power of YES... concerning, if you want to take away something from everything, you can! Recently, I treated myself with the indie gamePapers, please!, which in its core is about being in a boarder checkpoint, checking papers of travelers and potentially finding forgeries.
So, what does this have to do with my professional career as a software developer? Easy, doing code reviews, comparing files and finding mistakes in them 😄📝!
What games do you feel let you practice some handy skill, not only speaking of professional situations and not only thinking ofvideo games? 💭

I feel like city builder games really make you think more about planning for the future, there is so much to consider - in software and in cities 🏘️

Very true. Every complex system needs some kind of plan or at least a direction or a goal to strive for! 🚀

I think Real Time Strategy (RTS) games can make you a better developer. They increase your problem solving skills because you need to think of strategies to overcome different problems.

The experience is much like programming: designing, building, debugging, and improving performance.
