+1 towards turn-based games for your commute, keeps it easy to still be engaged with everything around you so you don't miss a stop or something. i really love the Mystery Dungeon games, which are roguelikes in the literal sense that they're procedurally generated dungeon crawlers where you start from scratch (or scratch-ish depending on how beginner friendly the title) when you die. the pokémon spinoffs are the most well known but there have been a lot of crossovers with other series as well as a line of completely original games called Shiren the Wanderer

i also have to mention Densha De Go, not because they would be particularly feasible but c'mon. don't you wanna drive a train while riding a train? it's real-er than VR!
