I haven't really found anything, hence why I'm curious to what everyone else is picking up.

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.

For me subnautica is in my top 5. The survival elements arenโ€™t very important, itโ€™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.

Subnautica

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.
