If you're perusing the #Steam Autumn sale looking for an inexpensive game that you can get lost in for many hours, I gotta recommend #Necesse. I've logged 25 hours in the last week, and I had to summon all of my willpower to pry myself away from it to go to bed tonight. I can tell I'm going to put a lot more hours into this game. lol
If you're into Minecraft or Terraria, Stardew Valley and other farming sims, Rimworld or other colony management games, and maybe even factory games (Satisfactory, Mindustry, Factorio, etc.), you should give this one a look. It's $5 on sale, and I kinda feel guilty for paying so little for it. 👀
The game is in EA, but it's already got plenty of content. If they abandoned it tomorrow, I'd still feel like I got my money's worth, but it really seems like the devs are pretty diligent with their updates and have more cool stuff in the pipeline.
In an age where AAA games cost $70, launch in a broken state, and still have the gall to add a microtransaction shop, I am very grateful for indie devs like these who provide value and a genuinely good gaming experience. 🙏
I got #Necesse on Humble for $5. I tried it out, and after about 10 minutes, I was like, "Eh. This game's alright."
Then I accidentally stayed up until 3 AM playing it. 👀
This game is very fun. Think Terraria + Rimworld + Stardew. It's pretty deep but accessible, and they don't throw too much at you in the beginning. That lead me to believe it was shallow at first, but really, I just needed to be patient and play a few more minutes of it. lol
It also helped that I found the zoom toggle in the settings and discovered a lovely texture pack on the Steam Workshop.

Just trying to kick-start a community on here for a very underrated game :)
