If you’re looking for some fun games to blitz through, here are 10 PlayStation Plus games that will give you that fix and can be completed in under 10 hours.
As great as it is to be lost in a huge open-world such as Crimson Desert or Baldur’s Gate 3, sometimes we just want to kick back, relax and speed through a campaign in a few hours or so.
If that sounds like your cup of tea and you subscribe to PlayStation Plus, then here are 10 games that should keep you covered. All of the below games are included in PS Plus at the time of writing.
Concrete Genie is a heart-warming, puzzle platformer that makes excellent use of the DualShock 4 and DualSense’s motion controls to create graffiti in-game. It’s a story about a young boy who’s being bullied, but when he encounters something magical, he uses his artistic talents to escape his troubles and discovers something even more special. Seriously, this game is so underrated! You should finish the story in under 10 hours.
Do not mistake Deliver Us The Moon as a simple “walking simulator”, because it’s so much more than that. Without giving too much away, you’re an astronaut on a mission to the moon to save our planet. However, this sci-fi thriller soon takes an unexpected turn. Deliver Us The Moon should take under 10 hours to complete.
Anyone familiar with LEGO games will know that you shouldn't typically expect 30 to 40-hour story campaigns. However, with LEGO Horizon Adventures, unlike the main game in this series, if you ignore all the side activities on your first playthrough, you could finish it in under 10 hours, much like Kate in her review.
I don’t want to spoil too much about Neva, but let’s just say that by the time you finish this narratively driven indie adventure, it will probably turn you into an emotional wreck. Its story tells the tale of a young woman named Alba, who forms a strong bond with a wolf cub. All in all, it should take about five hours to finish Neva’s campaign.
If you’re the type of gamer who enjoys speed-running, then there’s a good chance you might finish the Resident Evil 3 remake in under 10 hours on your first playthrough. However, once you’ve become familiar with its surroundings, you’d easily be looking at two to three hours at the most, especially when you unlock the rocket launcher. Many criticised this remake for being too short, but on the flip side, this action-packed horror is great to blitz through in one sitting.
Sword of the Sea is an epic but super chill indie game from the creators of the fantastic Journey and Abzû, and if you’re familiar with either of those games, then you’re probably sold already. This game blends surfing, exploration and gorgeous visuals into one delightful package. If you’re a completionist, Sword of the Sea might lasts just under 10 hours, but if you’re not, that time can easily be halved.
This hilarious indie game might only last a few hours, but there’s a good chance Thank Goodness You’re Here will be one of the funniest, most quirky games you’ll ever play. It’s a hard game to explain, other than what I just said. So, just play it, and it will all (kinda) make sense.

Not taking into account additional playthroughs and alternative scenarios, whether it's the PS4 original of 2015 or the 2024 PS5 remake, your first playthrough should last no more than 10 hours. Then, if you want to see all the grizzly deaths and endings, Until Dawn has bags of replay value. If you like video games that play like interactive movies, and if you’re a fan of slasher horrors, then you’ll probably get a kick out of this game.
If you love nothing more than to be a silly goose, you’ll have a blast with Untitled Goose Game. Much like Thank Goodness You’re Here, this will be one of the funniest games you’ll ever play. In a nutshell, you play a goose, and you torment humans in a village. Surely, that’s enough to sell you on this game, right? Untitled Goose Game should last under five hours on a first playthrough.
Venba is a very short, narratively driven game set in the 1980s, about an Indian family that migrates to Canada. Its story is about strong family bonds and the love of cooking. Solve recipe-inspired puzzles and create some tasty food. This cosy game should take you no more than two hours to blitz through.
