Hello, i was wondering if there are any good indie games on steam to try out. Can be free or paid, i don't mind if there's no native linux build either (i play stuff with wine/proton anyways lol) and i don't mind the genre. I've been thinking of trying something new as of recent so i thought i might ask it here.

Thanks!

  • Full Bore is IMO one of the most underrated games on Steam (10+ years old and only 78 reviews) if you like puzzle platformers.
  • Baba is You if you like puzzles without platforming.
  • Dropsy surrealistic point-and-click.
  • SteamWorld Dig 2 metroidvania, and currently on sale.
  • Ittle Dew Zelda-style adventure game... with puzzles.
  • VVVVVV retro puzzle game, with platforms but no jumping.

I thought I had more varied taste in games but kind of realizing that there's a pattern now that I'm writing down the ones I've enjoyed the most.
