Basically, what's a game I can play on Steam at work when it's slow and the boss isn't looking? Depending on your job, TIS-100 and Shenzhen I/O might not even require tabbing out for you to look like you were working. For more gentle zoning out, Luck Be a Landlord is a lot of fun.

Basically, what's a game I can play on Steam at work when it's slow and the boss isn't looking? I've made this recommendation several times now, but Dicey Dungeons is perfect for this. Can stop and start on a whim, is completely turn-based, auto-saves before every fight in case you need to suddenly quit, can be played with the sound off without any issues. Play sessions tend to last anywhere from 20-40 minutes. And it's also super fun. It's listed as a rougelite deckbuilder, but that's not really accurate. You do build a "deck" (really just gathering/upgrading equipment) during a play session, but nothing persists between play sessions, so you're not building up a starter deck or getting stronger through repeated play. Instead, whenever you beat a level you unlock a new level which will have a slightly different set of rules or conditions. The levels are surprisingly varied and strategies that work in one level often won't work in the next level, so it's lots of fun experimenting. Between the main game and the free DLCs there is more than 50 levels and multiple characters with completely different play styles. It goes on sale all the time on Steam, often at 75% off, so perhaps wait for that if you're on the fence. cmndstab fucked around with this message at 17:39 on Apr 24, 2024 |

I also wish I was better at it but, eh.

Can anyone recommend some cheap, non-PS+ featured, PlayStation 4 / PlayStation 5 console exclusive games for under $10-15? I've got some PlayStation wallet funds to spend, the May Savings sale is on, and I need to make two full game purchases to level up my Playstation Stars rank. If I'm going to buy something on the PS Store, I ideally want it to be something I can't get on Steam and that has either replayability or is worth the price of admission up front. I don't want to go for throwaway games like "Pet the ___". I'd like to find some kind of a gem down in the lower price ranges.
