She is playing the same games for so long, over and over again and i feel bad for her. A Poker game (the one with the cowboys theme) where she is a billionaire after years of playing and a couple of Shangai games.

She also likes Sudoku, she is buying those Sudoku magazines all the time. Maybe there's a game that generates puzzles so she won't have to buy those again?

I tried to find some other puzzle games for her but she didn't like them because they had characters talking in them and keyboard controls. I need games without a story and characters and mouse controls only.

I have no knowledge on the casual games market so i would appreciate it if you could find something for her.

Take it from someone who tried the exact same thing with both parents who have similar habits: let her have her poker and sudoku.

I’ve tried to get non-gaming family members into various games but they just won’t listen. I can see their eyes glaze over within 30 seconds.

Most recently The Witness, because my mother is into puzzles and I thought she’d appreciate it, but there was not a hope in hell thanks to the FPS controls. Total non-starter.

Maybe you could recommend her a crossword game or one of the many Wordle-alikes.

My mother plays sudoku a lot too. There are apps for it. There is a nice MS developed sudoku game if she has a windows machine and some other OK Android versions too.

My mom loves DX-Ball

Depending on English language proficiency (you are Greek?), word games like Letter Quest or hidden object games are worth exploring.
