CRPGs to play on a laptop with trackpad?

I helped put crap in Monomyth
Is it worth it or should I not bother and just watch Chris Avellone play Arcanum? I'm going on a trip and I thought I'd kill the 10hrs travel time with a few CRPGs. A few ideas I had:

  • Age of Decadence (I could do a talker run easily)
  • Wasteland 1 (I don't even need a mouse for this, right?)
  • Arcanum (because it's so damn good)
  • Mask of the betrayer (wildcard - haven't played any NWN games but RTWP should be doable, right? I feel inspired to experience the story)
What do you guys think?

:lol: Good luck.

If you've numpad there i'd suggest you to play classic roguelikes. Takes a moment to learn all different hotkeys but then it's a breeze.

Wizardry 1-5 and most of the Gold Boxes are easily playable with keyboard only.
if you're willing to use the touchpad you could also try something you probably haven't played yet - Challenge of the 5 Realms - for example. or just see how far you get with Wizardry 6 or 7.
you won't finish any of them during the travelling time though.
