Minecraft, sure there might be PvP on it, but you kill things like skeletons, zombies and stuff.

Football Manager 2012, trying to take Dundee United to winners of the Champions League (eventually). It's an extremely slow process.

Well technically, you don't kill people when you play a video game, because it's not real. It's all 1s and 0s.

But I get you meaning. um... let's see, last game I played without pretend murder... hm... well you don't really "kill" "people" in Minecraft's single player.

But if zombies count, then I'll say Portal. You only break robots in portal.

OpenTTD

Burning coal & oil never killed anyone.

So escapist what is the last game you played that didn?t have any combat in it ?

Mine is Syberia . I haven?t finished it yet so who knows I might still have to fight a giant robot by the end but so far it?s been some of the most fun I had with a game this year.

Combat != killing people

Plenty of combat in Psychonauts, for example, but no killing people (although you can set squirrels on fire!)

Anyway, the answer for me would be Dr. Mario because I play that all the time. Got to love classic puzzle games. The other half is mad for Tetris.

 

[SadisticBrownie]

I guess Limbo might count, just. Otherwise, probably Super Meat Boy.

 

[F-I-D-O]

I've played a few of these recently
Bit.Trip Beat/Runner
inMomentum
that minis game "I'm a Monster" or something like that (Can't ever remember this game)
Audiosurf
EDGE
SpaceChem

bit trip runner and audiosurf are fantastic

Yes, yes they are. Bit.Trip runner made this humble indie bundle my favorite.
Now, does killing yourself repeatedly count as killing, because if it doesn't, I propose Super Meat Boy as the last game I played that didn't involve killing. *swears as he dies for the hundredth time, then laughs manically at the replay*

 

[Jesus Phish]

Bit Trip Runner. Got it from the Humble Bundle and gave it a shot. Before that probably VVVVVVV from another bundle.

Perhaps indie games don't focus so much on killing.. Oh wait Shank...

No combat... at all?

The last game that didn't involve killing people was Pokemon Ruby

The last game that didn't involve fighting people was Gemcraft: Labyrinth.

The last one with no combat whatsoever? Animal Crossing.

 

[Inglorious891]

FortressCraft. The only game I've seriously played for the past 2 days. May be time to crack open Bayonetta or Skyrim...

 

[Javarock]

From Dust, Well at least I Don't TRY to kill the little people.

 

[jacilon]

Bastion

THERE WINDBAGS and forest beasts (damn peckers)

 

[Jegsimmons]

portal 2...or pokemon....though everytime i play pokemon someone does die....not sure if thats related.

 

[Cryofthewolf]

Spider solitaire. Good stuff.

 

[Polarity27]

Casual games like bejeweled, or GameDevStory on the iPhone.

 

[Volothos]

Touhou Soccer. Even though you have all this awesome shit happening nobody dies.
