Realized I didn't have Bejeweled 3 on steam so picked up that, along with "we must build a boat" and "might and magic: clash of heroes". Just needed something supercasual to play in the dead zones between.... doing things in life

Its a different version, not just a regular update, which is why I imagine GoG doesn't have it. Plus its nice to have the option of both if you want.

Or I just could be nuts, I have bought the game like 6 times now

Nah, it�s cool, I decided to drop Magical Hall and go all in on Dragonpass and Six Ages together with Fort Triumph since I also crave something in the same vein as Xcom.

WMBAB rules. I played through it and the developer's first game, 1000000, on iPad.

Any good sub-$2 recommendations to snatch up as the sale is winding down? reYal is 99 cents and is a fun little puzzle game.

EDIT: It's actually titled "YOU Must Build A Boat"

That�s probably close to industry wide, excluding Switch. I bet Switch is closer to 50/50.

You Must Build a Boat is really satisfying and a good match3 game. Congrats

So Assassin's Creed Odyssey has this photo mode, and when you take pictures in it, those pictures can show up on the map of other people playing the game online. For whatever reason though, the starter island I'm on has this one guy taking a bunch of pictures of peoples legs/feet and its starting to get annoying.

It's not going to be perfect but if you want something in the same kind of genre, House Flippers did it for me. Somehow I love cleaning up messes/fixing problems for other people in games.

Oh yeah, House Flippers is loving zen. Stellar cleaning sim.

Having played all of them a lot, I think they're pretty much all of similar quality. I'd just pick the ones with the environments you find most appealing.

e: The latest map, Silver Ridge Peaks, doesn't have any side missions for some reason, if that's a thing you care about. The map itself is still great.

I put that on my wishlist and a REALLY nice goon got it for me in the steam gift train, which you should ride. Also the game looks dope and I can't wait to play it.

Consider picking up Cat in a Box if you like RPGMaker-style horror games. I've played a little bit of it and it's actually impressive on many levels. It also has good support for window resizing.

And get DemonCrawl. And Monster Train. And QT.

I loving love that feature! One of the first things that happened in AC origins was that I stumbled over a photo spoiling plot stuff. Thanks Ubisoft!

Or Planet Zoo?

Parkitect is very good and feels pretty much exactly like playing Rollercoaster Tycoon again.

Watchdogs two is on sale for $10 this weekend on steam, but supposedly you can get it free if you log into Uplay on the day of Ubisofts (not E3) presentation on 7/12.

But that probably won�t duplicate into your Steam Library if that�s important to you...
