I'm looking for some recommendations for the upcoming sale. We all know Vampire Survivors, but what other games can you recommend?

That solely depends on the question what you consider "Casual". I'll go with the definition "a game that doesn't need a significant time investment per play-session".

  • Super Hexagon: Amazing music, simple game, but challenging.
  • Triptych: Tetris with soft body physics. The game is great, the sound a bit annoying. Also, I don't think it's available on Steam, so it needs manual installation (and input bindings).
  • Cultist Simulator: While the game is very obscure, it doesn't require a lot of time per session - you can start it, play 5 minutes, and exit it again.
  • Hades: It's a Roguelite. You die. A lot. That's why each session can be rather short.
  • Loop Hero: It's not as "casual" as the others, as it takes some time for each run, but not too much.
