Hey all. Always enjoyed reading everyone's suggestions on more unknown games available during big steam sales.

I'll start off with one that I have been a fan of for a long time: Death Road to Canada

This game is like a zombie action Oregon Trail like game, where you manage supplies and fight through hordes of zombies on your way to the safe haven of Canada. Only US$3.74 right now and well worth it imo!

I highly recommend CrossCode, currently only costs $6 (It also has a free demo if you want to try it first). It’s a really well polished game with a great story, and the action is amazing too. It also includes difficulty settings you can change if you feel yourself getting too frustrated (as I did sometimes). This video also sums it up pretty well. Hope you enjoy!

I don't understand how it's not a classic. The music and art is amazing, the story and characters are charming, the battle system is fun, it's full of side quests and places to explore. Maybe it's because the dungeons are literally 2 hours of non-stop puzzles (they went a bit hard on the puzzles), but if you can get past that, it's definitely worth your time!
