Learned about the "Wuselfaktor" yesterday when talking about Settlers II for @dosgameclub๐Ÿ’พ DOS GAME CLUB ๐Ÿ’พ

It's a German concept that describes how interesting and nice a game is to look at without the player doing anything in particular.

It's especially relevant for simulation type games, where your screen is filled with a bunch of characters that are each working on their own task.

Settlers II has a very high Wuselfaktor, but so do games like Lemmings or Transport Tycoon.
