You leap across rooftops and pipes, slip through tight gaps, solve environmental puzzles and dodge dangerous creatures while trying to find your way back home.
What players say: Players love how good it feels to simply be a cat, from squeezing into tiny spaces to knocking things off shelves, along with the moody cyberpunk city and its music. Some note it is short enough to finish in a day.

Dave The Diver
Grab itSteam Deck: VerifiedLowest Steam price ever
Steam: $9.99 (50% off) · regular price $19.99 · 96% positive Steam reviews (51,294)
What it is: An adventure and management mix where Dave dives into the mysterious, ever-changing Blue Hole by day, harpooning fish while watching his oxygen, then serves the catch at a sushi restaurant by night. The pixel art blends with 3D underwater scenery, and a goofy cast of characters fills the story with jokes and side activities.
What players say: Players adore the day-and-night loop of diving and running the sushi bar, plus the charming characters, smooth animations and soundtrack. The common complaint is that it keeps piling on new minigames, side tasks and cutscenes until the loop starts to feel tedious.

What it is: A 2D space-colony sim from Klei where you guide a small crew of Duplicants living inside an asteroid, digging out living space while keeping oxygen, food and temperature under control. You lay out plumbing, power grids and pipe networks for gases and liquids, and keep your colonists' stress in check before they start acting out.
What players say: Players enjoy how colonies fall apart in comic ways, from bad air to overflowing toilets, and say the systems run remarkably deep. Some find the stream of new crises rarely lets up long enough to sit back and enjoy a working base.
Worth buying? Builders who enjoy untangling complex systems will find plenty to chew on, with 95% of reviewers recommending it, and its lowest Steam price ever makes now a good time to start; anyone who doesn't want to study guides and a wiki should skip it.

What it is: A fantasy strategy game set in the Warhammer world where you pick a faction and a Legendary Lord, then grow an empire on a turn-based campaign map through diplomacy, settlement building and recruiting armies. When armies clash, you take direct control in real-time battles with thousands of soldiers, dragons, monsters and magic.
What players say: Players praise the huge campaign and the many factions there are to explore, with some calling it the best entry in the trilogy. The shared complaint is that much of the content, especially extra lords and races, sits behind paid DLC.
Good to know: It uses Denuvo anti-tamper DRM.
Worth buying? Grand strategy fans who like mixing empire management with big battles get a great deal at its lowest Steam price ever, backed by 93% positive reviews. Anyone unwilling to buy add-ons later should skip it.
Dredge
Grab itSteam Deck: VerifiedRuns on older PCs
Steam: $10.79 (60% off) · regular price $26.99 · 96% positive Steam reviews (32,743) · Close to its lowest Steam price of the past year ($9.99)
What it is: A fishing adventure with a creeping Lovecraftian edge: you captain a small trawler around a remote archipelago, hauling up odd catches and squeezing them into your limited hold. You sell fish to islanders, upgrade your boat and dig into each island's troubled past, but staying out after dark in the fog invites strange threats.
What players say: Players love the eerie atmosphere, art and music and how it swings between calm fishing and sudden horror. Several feel the catch-sell-upgrade loop turns repetitive after the first few areas.
Worth buying? Ideal for anyone who wants a cozy game with a creepy streak, with 96% of reviewers on board. Its lowest Steam price of the past year was $9.99, so there's little reason to hold out.
Astroneer
Grab itSteam Deck: PlayableLowest Steam price everRuns on older PCs
Steam: $7.49 (75% off) · regular price $29.99 · 91% positive Steam reviews (54,041)
What it is: A space sandbox where you explore seven planets and moons, reshaping the ground with a tool that digs, gathers and builds terrain like clay. You set up bases, power and automated production, then launch rockets to reach new worlds and investigate the strange structures scattered across them.
What players say: Players enjoy the laid-back, combat-light exploration and resource gathering at their own pace. Bugs come up often, from unstable multiplayer to performance drops after an update and vanishing rails late in the game.
Good to know: You can play the whole thing solo or team up with friends in co-op.
Worth buying? Tinkerers who enjoy shaping terrain and building automated bases will have plenty to do, with 91% of reviewers recommending it, and at its all-time Steam low it's worth grabbing now.
Darkest Dungeon
Grab itSteam Deck: VerifiedRuns on older PCs
Steam: $3.74 (85% off) · regular price $24.99 · 90% positive Steam reviews (57,216) · It was $1.99 on Steam within the past year
What it is: A gothic, roguelike turn-based RPG where you recruit a band of flawed heroes and send them into dungeons beneath your family's cursed estate. Beyond monsters, you manage their stress, quirks and disease, and fallen heroes are gone for good, while the town you rebuild between runs keeps your progress.
What players say: Players praise the tense tactical combat and grim atmosphere, and say it rewards preparation and learning. The common complaint is harsh randomness, where a bad streak can wipe out high-level heroes and force lots of regrinding.
Worth buying? With 90% positive reviews, it's a great pick for strategy fans who enjoy tough choices and accept losing heroes, though anyone who hates swingy luck should pass. It went for $1.99 on Steam within the past year, so patient buyers can wait for a deeper sale.

Fireside Feelings
Grab itSteam Deck: VerifiedRuns on older PCs
Steam: Free · regular price $7.99 on Steam · 97% positive Steam reviews (297) · ended Oct 12, 2026
What it is: A cozy, hand-drawn 2D game where you sit by a campfire, answer thoughtful questions about friendship, childhood dreams or everyday habits, and then read how a real stranger answered the same prompt earlier. Over time you unlock items to decorate your own little spot by the fire, and you can set content warnings to steer clear of topics you'd rather avoid.
What players say: Players say the deep, personal questions and the honest answers from others are surprisingly moving, and they praise the cute, caring design. The main gripe is that you never truly talk with anyone, since there's no way to reply or keep an exchange going.
Good to know: It's single-player only, so there's no live chat and no direct contact with the people whose answers you read.
Worth grabbing? A gentle pick for anyone who likes quiet reflection and reading other people's thoughts at their own pace, and 97% of reviewers recommend it.
Steam Deck results are Valve's own tests of the Steam version. Runs on older PCs means 4 GB of RAM or less.
