Heaven's Vault, Hardspace Shipbreaker, and both Subnautica games.
Heaven's Vault is a puzzle game where you have to learn to translate an unknown language. Haven't gotten too deep into the game yet, but I picked it up because I liked Chants of Sennaar, which has a similar premise. Chants is 25% off right now, so I think that's a decent recommendation
Hardspace Shipbreaker is a casual game where you break down spaceships for parts. It seemed fun, and I wanted to have something casual to balance out my library, which currently has more intense games than I would like.
Subnautica is a survival game where you're stuck on an ocean world. I'm honestly not too sure if I would like this one too much, since I'm not too much of a fan of survival games. It just seemed unique enough from the other survival games, and it had a decent deal, and it was in my wishlist for a while. So I acted a bit on impulse and bought both games (Subnautica and Subnautica Below Zero)
Subnautica is a treasure. (Despite the bugs.) I recommend playing with a good sound setup and dim lights.
Are you sure whatever it is you are doing is worth it?
I've played Hardspace and Subnautica and love them both. Solid pics.
For me subnautica is in my top 5. The survival elements aren’t very important, it’s more of an exploration game.
Hardspace is really nice once you get into a good flow.
Or even just taking your time to break down the ships in ways you find satisfying is awesome.
I've had this game for years but I thought it was a VR-only game. Got it in a Humble bundle for cheap.
Dunno why it's so popular all of a sudden or why it's still $30 normally. Maybe I should try playing it.
