Initial scrolling of the Steam Summer Sale seems pretty lackluster, but digging through the comments sections in other threads, a few gems have stood out, and it doesn’t appear we have a thread dedicated to this yet, so post what you think are the best deals here!

Not mandatory ofc, but it’d be helpful if…

  • One game per top level post, so comments stemming from it are focused on on just it.

  • Hyperlink the game title to its Store Page

  • Include both the normal and sale price / %off

  • Include a short blurb about the game - if it’s one you’ve played before, what did you like about it? If you’re diving in blind, what grabbed your attention?

Good hunt’n!

    Disco Elysium is 90% off. $54.49 $4.54 (that’s in Canadian, not sure about the US price exactly.)

    I honestly couldn’t even tell you what it’s about, but it’s one of my favourite games ever. You can die from reading a book that’s too sad and if you do it right, you can smell communism.

      Disco Elysium is always free, the devs got fucked and won’t get a cent from sales, everyone should pirate the game.

      DE is fantastically well written, equal parts emotional and hilarious depending how you play and one of my all time favorite games. Big recommend

      I really wanted to like this one but I just can’t handle being as much of a fuckup as this game will inevitably make you.

        The ending makes it all up. It’s like a slow, painful crawl back to the surface.
