    Looking through the sale trying to find ANY game that holds an interest for me… Any suggestions? Seems like a lot of trash lately.

      Great games that came out in 2024:

      • UFO 50
      • Peglin
      • ANIMAL WELL
      • Balatro

      2024 games that I haven’t tried yet but seem promising:

      • Pepper Grinder
      • Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom
      • Lorelei and the Laser Eyes
      • Rabbit and Steel
      • Another Crab’s Treasure
      • Felvidek

      All are in no particular order. Dunno if you’ll like those but these ones come to mind :)

        Rabbit and Steel

        I haven’t had a chance to properly play it in coop, but I tried Rabbit and Steel and it is really fun.

        Thanks! Bought and played a lot of UFO50 already, I liked it. Bought and loved Balatro as well! I’ll have to look into the others. Thanks again!

          No worries! I’ve just realized you were asking for games on sale (reading is hard ugh…) so hopefully the ones you want will be discounted mb ^^’

        Another Crabs Treasure.

        Oof. Wanted to love it. Wanted it to be SpongeBob like but with dark souls but timing is weird. The game is buggy. Fights don’t feel satisfying and it’s somehow too fast and too slow but people keep telling me to just turn on God mode and it will be fun… But then it’s not a game it’s a power trip.

        I would skip it. I think it got hyped up the way that Stray did without being a great game just a great concept to talk about.

          Damn, that’s sad. Since I already have tons of games I want to play I’ll probably never end up getting it then. Thanks for telling me :/

        Nine Sols is squarely in the “good but not fun” category for me. It is well executed but I did not enjoy most of it. Also the story is a bummer.

        I reinstalled Sekiro after finishing it to see if my memory was rose tinted. No, sekiro is still like music. Even cleared the “you should lose this fight” tutorial boss.

        It’s apparently got a major patch to make it good recently! I plan on getting it next payday because of that

      I’ve gone through spells like this. I currently have more games to buy and play than I have time, but I’m a bit behind.

      What do you like?

      I saw in another comment you played satisfactory. Check out Shapez 2. Its a no pressure fun factory game.

        Thanks for the recommendation! I play a lot of different styles of games. Roguelikes, factory building, survival, FPS, RPG, Arcade, RTS, ect and sundry.

            I have it! I can’t get out of ACT 1 without wanting to reroll a new character. I’ve done this at least 5 times so far… haha

      Same. Yesterday I searched through Switch, PS5, GoG and Steam to find something to play during the holidays.

      I think I’ll just track down the Wii game “The Last Story” I never got to play.
