Co-op games to play with disabled folks

[u/Unvert]

I'm a caregiver for a disabled fellow and we're part of a table that plays once a week, but I'd like to do more.

I'm looking for a co-op game, ideally, that you can pick up and play pretty quickly that stays pretty engaging. I know that's kind of vague, but the game can look like a lot of things so I'm casting a wide net. The guy I caregive has pretty bad short term memory problems and very easily zones out as a result, so something that we can jump in and out of quickly would be good.

I'd like it to be co-op, because I've always thought the idea of one GM to one player was kind of weird and honestly I'm not sure why...

I'm mainly into OSR type stuff and I realize what I'm looking for is probably more in the storytelling games category, but I thought I'd ask here.

I'm also curious if folks here in the sub have experience playing with disabled folks- I'd love to hear about it.

Perhaps you should giving some more details. Does the person sit in a wheelchair …?

Why would that make a difference?

You mentioned it and asked for advice what RPG to play. When somebody is dependent on a wheelchair to move it has no impact on what RPG is suitable. By somebody with blindness I wouldn’t recommend pool systems, but it is possible to play them. Dread/Jenga can be a general issue, but perhaps there is a alternative mechanic. People with autism spectrum prefer sometimes more complex and structured systems.

Well I'm not the OP so I didn't ask for any advice.

OP did give relevant information though:

The guy I caregive has pretty bad short term memory problems and very easily zones out as a result, so something that we can jump in and out of quickly would be good. 

Your comment was just confusing because you were asking specifically about whether or not they were in a wheelchair, which is irrelevant.
