Looking for a good deck builder, like Slay the Spire, on Android. I've been dumping a ton of time into Monster Train, but it doesn't look like it's available on mobile. I would prefer paid, or at least the option to go ad free.

You are not wrong, I should have clarified that I've been playing it on Android as well, and it's a pretty good port, although I wish the card text were a little bigger.

Star Realms is a fun sci-fi game, but I wouldn't call it good. It's so wildly random.

Thanks for the recs!
I forgot about Guild of Dungeoneering, played it a little on steam, but haven't touched it since the most recent update, so I'll probably grab that today. Ironclad tactics looks cool, and I'm a bug fan of zachtronics, looks like the Android version is only available thru itch.io, which is cool.
Star realms is also a very good game, but I'm looking for something with more roguelite features.

I played a fair bit of Rogue Adventure, superficially it's pretty similar to Slay the Spire but it definitely plays much differently. Crucially, every character's starter deck is pretty good and you typically want to take cards that synergize with it.

Oh, and I'll bring up Card Quest. It's less "build a deck as a run goes on" and more "build your deck before the run begins", but it is an excellent card-based roguelike.

Dimension of Dreams is so much like Slay the Spire it's almost silly. I think Meteorfall: Journeys is pretty good as well (I like that series a lot).

Looking for a good racing game that can run on a lovely laptop. I love playing Hot Wheels Unleashed but my computer is in the shop for a few weeks so I'm looking for a fun racing game I can play on my little lovely school laptop. Any era/art style. Just wanna have fun with fast cars.

The Trackmania games are perfect for this. And if old games are no problem, then the Screamer series and Rollcage are fun.

Why, yes, I do like Kirby games.
I'm looking for something rather specific in a game, and I'm wondering if any of you can help. I want to be able to explore an area (first-person ideal, third-person acceptable), then get into a vehicle, explore its interior, take a seat, and travel somewhere else (being a pilot would be preferred, but being a passenger is fine) before getting out to explore a new area. Most critically, (a) I want a diverse selection of destinations (not just one tram ride) and (b) I don't want the trip to be fast-travel (i.e., I want scenery as I travel). The part I'm having the most trouble satisfying, though, is the vehicle having an interior.

I believe GTAV has a first person option for when you're driving, in which case you could drive around the map and explore.

Subnautica is a game entirely about exploration, and one of the vehicles you get is a full on submarine with a walkable interior, designed to be used as a mobile base.

X4 has interiors for every ship, but I'm not sure how much there is to explore besides "space" and "more space"

I loving wish I could recommend Elite: Dangerous, but they hosed up their only job in the expansion that introduces moving the character around using their feet, by having the ships, vehicles and landing locations be the only places you can't walk around. :(

It is a hell of a good exploration game, if you just imagine that space folks don't need legs because of the micro-gravity environment mean having legs is just a pain since leg muscles are too powerful to do anything useful with in micro-gravity.

Cyberpunk 2077 maybe, if cars are okay? All of the cars have nicely modelled interiors that are appropriate to the type of vehicle that you can look around in first person. The cheap lovely cars have cheap lovely interiors. The high end cars have gorgeous lux interiors with wood panelling or slick readouts.

Depending on your definition of "has an interior", Valheim.

Pulsar: Lost Colony had a mix of fast travel between solar systems and just flying within solar systems and a bunch of exploring planets.

You can move around and interact with things in the interior of the different vehicles. There is a lot of variety - vans, tractors, a minibike, a boat, jail, etc...
You have to actually build a car, so that's interaction.
And if you get bored, you can get drunk and eat sausages and pee on things.

Monster Hunter World/Rise is a unique action rpg where you kill boss monsters wear their skins to make numbers go up and then kill bigger monsters.

Gunfire Reborn is a decent shooty stuff where numbers go up.

Streets of Rage 4 is the pinnacle of beat 'em up games and works great in coop.

The second Orcs Must Die!!! Is a pretty fun coop game.
It's an action TD game, you play as a mage and use spells and traps to murder a lot of orcs. I really enjoyed playing thru it on steam with a buddy. I don't think it's super long, but if I remember right there is a little bit of replayability, I think you can unlock new traps maybe and use them on earlier levels. I know there is a third one, but I have no experience with it, might have been a stadia exclusive???

It was at launch but isn't any more, you can buy OMD3 on steam. It's decent if you really want to play more orcs must die but I wouldn't recommend it to anymore who wants more than an orcs must die 2 level pack
