At a discount of 66% off, this classic deckbuilding roguelike is absolutely worth picking up. In this game, you battle your way through three levels of the Spire, defeating bosses and assembling your deck. The game is challenging and rewarding, and each playable character possesses a unique card pool. The randomly generated encounters make each run feel fresh, and the art style is quite charming.

Inscryption ($11.99)

To call Inscryption a strategy game is like scooping water into your hands and calling it the sea. Inscryption is a multifaceted game with strategy, deckbuilding, roguelike, and puzzle-solving elements. While the crux of Inscryption's gameplay is card battles, the game tests your ability to strategize and make risky decisions. The spooky ambience is unmatched, and we still can't believe the whole game was created by one developer.

Frostpunk ($5.99)

Frostpunk's mantra is "the city must survive." While watching your citizens freeze to death and barely have enough rations to make it through the night, this phrase becomes more real by the second. Frostpunk is a city-building survival game where the environment wants you dead. In order to complete this game, you must hone your decision-making skills, even when things are down to the wire. At a discount of 80%, this thrilling experience is a must-buy.

For the King ($4.99)

If you're looking to organize a game night for a few friends, For the King is an excellent game for the occasion. In this game, three players embark on various missions, embodying different classes and narrowly avoiding death. The best part of this game is how purely fun it is. I played this game with two friends, and we never stopped laughing. For the King is goofy and surprisingly difficult, and even if it takes a few team wipes, this game is worth playing to the end.
