Here's my decent haul. Some of them aren't really in the "Sale" as they just launched but have launch discounts.

  • Control Ultimate Edition: Already own it on Epic, but was cheap enough to re-buy for easier Steam Deck play.
  • Crab Champions: The meme song that become a really competent roguelike shooter!
  • Dave the Diver: What if Lucasarts made a mini-game filled roguelike?
  • DROP - System Breach: Sleeper hit for me. Intense puzzle/pattern recognition game with a great, simplistic hacking theme/style.
  • The Entropy Centre: Big Portal vibes, but using time!
  • Humanity: What if Lemmings, but you're an omniscient Shiba Inu. Plays great in VR too.
  • Prey: Loved Deathloop but never had a chance to play Prey.
  • Shogun Showdown: Crypt of the Necrodancer meets Slay the Spire - SIGN ME UP!

Good reviews and suggestions. Added a few to my wishlist for better sale prices later! Shogun looks like one to keep an eye on.

oh, Prey is amazing as an immersiv sim!

Great list, and I appreciate the short summary for each game. I'm definitely sold on Shogun Showdown now, but I better wait a bit to get it since it's not discounted and I bought enough games this sale already lol.
