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.

    I keep waiting for Caves of Qud to have a more substantial sale, but since I’m fairly deep into Cataclysm at the moment and it’s free I think I’m gonna get some smaller and cheaper ones - Dawn of Mexica and Golden Krone Hotel (check them out, they at least seem very cool if you’re into roguelikes), still trying to decide whether to include ADOM or ToME as wel. Also debating Osmos, Myst, Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 or whether to just bite it and get CoQ finally.

      Both ToME and Caves of Qud are amazing games. You can get ToME for free off the official website

      look into some of the community made controller templates, as there are a lot of keybinds to cover it could be easier to use a template as a starting point.

      CoQ is worth the price. I’ve been playing that game steadily for the last year and a half, and I’m still having fun. I’ll probably keep playing it until Steam Dwarf Fortress gets a native Mac OS port.

        Yeah I’ve figured it probably is worth it for me, but I’m not sure if I’ll have one too many irons in the fire with both Cataclysm and CoQ. Haven’t played a more traditional roguelike in over a decade so it’s taking a bit getting used to again.
