Steam Summer Sale - Top Deals
Initial scrolling of the Steam Summer Sale seems pretty lackluster, but digging through the comments sections in other threads, a few gems have stood out, and it doesn't appear we have a thread dedicated to this yet, so post what you think are the best deals here!
Not mandatory ofc, but it'd be helpful if...
-
One game per top level post, so comments stemming from it are focused on on just it.
-
Hyperlink the game title to its Store Page
-
Include both the normal and sale price / %off
-
Include a short blurb about the game - if it's one you've played before, what did you like about it? If you're diving in blind, what grabbed your attention?
Good hunt'n!

Tunic $14.99 (50% off, new all-time low)
A little guy in a green tunic picks up a sword and goes on an adventure, but the game is in an unknown language and you only have a few pages of the manual. It's like a metroidvania but your progress is based on knowledge.
It's a great little game, but don't be afraid to drop the difficulty down later on. It really does detract from what makes the game special.
As someone who never touched the difficulty, I think my smooth experience came down to considering the encounters more, not dial-mashing the controller. Some fights work a lot better with certain equipment. There’s three kinds of defense suitable for certain attacks: Shield, dodging, and sprinting (a certain enemy has a long gun attack, for instance, that’s good for sprinting).
I think I did struggle a bit at an eventual “rush” segment, but that’s coming up near the end of the game.
