I was looking at getting some roguelikes / lites (already have ToME, CoQ), unfortunately Cataclysm DDA is not on sale.

Krone Hotel at 90% off looks like a decent choice too. Then there’s Jupiter Hell, which I recently stumbled upon and looks great too.

I’d also like to get some of the FF games, though I’ve played VI, VII, IX and a bit of XII, it would be nice to revisit some of the older ones I haven’t played almost since the PSX era.

    • Ori and the Blind Forest, after recently completing WotW.
    • GTA IV
    • Stanley Parable: ultra deluxe. Loved the first one.
    • The Beginner’s Guide

    Some local multiplayer games to play with my partner on the dock:

    • It Takes Two
    • Unravel 1 & 2
    • ibb and obb
    • Pummel Party
    • Sonic All-Stars Racing

    I also considered Hollow Knight and Dead Cells, but prefer to get games on GOG when available.

      It takes two is a phenomenal co-op experience. We did a couple of runs and enjoy the whole thing each time.

        The gameplay was good, the story is awful.

        We quit after a certain scene. It made us feel sick and we had no desire to continue. I had just recommended a friend to play it with their kids the day before and immediately told them not to.

        Just awful.

          Now I’m curious which scene you’re talking about. The storyline in my opinion was a bit shallow and at times cringy, but not sickening.

            It involves an elephant and I’m definitely not the only one who felt this way about that scene and it’s a very common thread for people to quit playing the game after this scene.

        I gave up after ~2 hours, since I didn’t enjoy driving around the world, but in that time it performed great on the Steam Deck.
