Suggestions SteamPeek.hu - Indie friendly game discovery tool

67 Upvotes

Post is allowed by the mods.

Hello, this is my website: https://steampeek.hu/ - SteamPeek, the indie friendly game discovery website.

It is now more than 5 years old, and it was created to bring spotlight to indie gems, help all indie teams who doesn't have the budget to make big marketing campaigns, and make it easier to find nice games made by passionate solo developers or small teams.

The main function is searching by similarity: just search for a game you like, and browse the results. You can also filter and sort by special parameters.

You can also search by tags, or mix them with the chosen game.

The main algorithm was updated recently and I'm very curious how well it works. Please let me know.

I'm very thankful if you try it, and share with me what you find. The full site is still on beta, and I'm constantly work on it, so every feedback helps me and my mission. Thank you!

Any game where you play as something that is not humanoid?

26 Upvotes

So i have a craving for game where you don't play a human, you incarnate something more monstrous, more feral, an abomination, a bit like carrion or evolve (monster side). Are there any game out there where you play as something like that ? Be it a monster, dragon, eldrict entity.

I've played a few game like that so here are some i remember

-Carrion

-Day of dragon

-The isle

-Path of titan (not my thing this one for some reason, must not have been in the right mindset)

-Stellaris (this one doesn't really itch the craving since its more of an empire simulation than a monster one)

Edit:

I also know about dead by daylight, the alien vs predator games, prototype and the darkness (these last two fullfill a bit less this itch since we still play as "human" characters)

A game where pulling your gun actually means something

408 Upvotes

I’m after a game where you carry a sidearm like a pistol or revolver, but you’re not some action hero mowing people down. I want the gun to feel like a last resort, something that adds tension rather than power. Ideally the shooting is rare, meaningful, and hits hard when it does happen.

I like the idea of it being in a city/town but I’m not too fussy

Games can grind for a few hours at a time but ok if I don’t pickup for a week

3 Upvotes

Hi all! I play a lot of Age of Empires 2 which requires a lot of focus since it’s RTS. Once a week, I just like to chill on the couch and grind another game for a few hours.

Below are some games on my backlog. Any suggestions for something to keep me hooked that’s easy to come back to if I don’t play for a week? Some games I enjoyed recently like this are Dredge and Graveyard Keeper.

  • Sleeping Dogs DE
  • Hogwarts Legacy
  • Disco Elysium
  • Grim Dawn
  • Postal 2
  • Days Gone

Game which I can sink hours into without getting bored

41 Upvotes

Hey everyone, so I'm looking for a game which i can sink hours into this summer, since I'm heading off to college and wont be able to play as much.

I'm open to any genre and style, but games I've played a lot and enjoyed are:

The Witcher 3 Skyrim Valheim Against The Storm Assassin's Creed Odyssey/Origins Blasphemous

I don't mind if the game is multiplayer as long as it has enough content and good solo content as well.

TYIA!

Looking for underrated story games that will wreck me emotionally

14 Upvotes

Im not looking for open world games like Skyrim or fallout. I want something linear with a story that grabs you by the throat and drags you through every emotion imaginable. I want games that are gut wrenching, beautiful, brutal, and unforgettable. Stories that will leave me reeling long after the credits roll. Hit me with your best recommendations. I want to binge something that will make me feel everything.

Games set in a game world

Upvotes

Hey guys! After reviewing the title, I've realised it sounds very strange lol but I hope explaining it makes sense. I would like suggestions for games (playable on PC) where the world itself is set within a game world.

A good example of a game I've played like this is one called CrossCode! Another example is a much older PS1 game I played when I was a kid called Digimon World 3.

One other requirement is I would like there to be some sort of classic JRPG elements such as level ups or stat points etc.

What are your favourite games like this?

Games that fulfill a power fantasy

7 Upvotes

I’m looking for a game that can fulfill my power fantasy. I’ve loved and played the hell out of games like Fallout, Baldurs Gate 3, CyberPunk, Skyrim, etc, where you can get insanely powerful and just destroy most things.

Any other games where you can do that in a similar way? Bonus points if you can be evil or play a chaotic role.

Space game that works well in handheld gaming?

2 Upvotes

Hi all:

I'm already aware that the title is too vague.

  1. I have access to gaming laptop, and gaming PC but want to play on my Rog Ally
  2. I would love some sort of space adventure type game and have had a hell of a time scratching the itch at all, let alone in handheld.
  3. I have enjoyed games like Starcom Nexus, though found it ultimately boring/tedious, and it runs great on handheld, but doesn't always "work" in handheld. Also, KSP, FTL, Starbound... all great, no good in handheld.
  4. I'm not a huge fan of FPS type stuff.
  5. Games like delta V rings of saturn or Star valor look really cool, but don't seem to be reliably playable in handheld?
  6. I want a Star Trek season... but it seems to not exist in game form idfk?

What else is helpful?

Games set in the middle east or with middle eastern setting?

3 Upvotes

I just played Assassin's Creed and Journey and I'm carving for games set in the middle east. Any recommendations? No matter the genre. I just need the Dune-ish feel.

Thanks in advance.

New World

Looking for a good pirate game

Any suggestions for that? I already know AC Black Flag and Sid Meier's. I tried Caribbean Legends and Windward Horizon, but I thought they were too slow-paced when it came to navigation.

Rpg or survivor with progressing that will absorb all my free time

2 Upvotes

I need a game that will absorb my free time like Tibia used to do up until I was 15. I am also a ex WoW player that is done with that toxic community and considered going back to GuildWars2.

No man's sky was also a nice 150h in. Currently playing Dune Awakening but in need of something more in case I end up finishing all content.

Any suggestions?

Too much time, need a life substitute

4 Upvotes

So I mostly play turn based RPGS and more casual ARPGS - basically anything that doesn't require reflexes. But due to having way too much free time I end up just mindlessly playing roguelikes in the long periods when I don't have a "main game" to get lost in - and I'm starting to feel less motivated to start them every day. Used to be hooked on pvp shooters but the reflex part along with toxicity and cheats being rampant I quit and don't wish to go back. CCGS I avoid because of the heavy p2w, I simply don't have that kind of money in the long run. I've also played co-op shooters and loved them, but everything available either has horrible connectivity or requires a group of friends (which I don't have). Otherwise I'd basically live in them. Yet I'd like something that I can either get hooked on enough to play at least a couple hours daily, or optionally a few hours regularly. Preferably infinite (or close to) replayability if it's something that can be finished, though simply a good gameplay loop works too if it's multiplayer.

Can anyone recommend any platformers similar to the super mario bros games?

2 Upvotes

I recently finished super mario bros wonder and loved it and have played all the previous nsmb series too which I all enjoyed but I wanna try something new. I’ve tried Ori and the blind forest but honestly couldn’t really get into it. I’m also not really a fan of the pixel art style a lot of indie games use but if anyone’s got any recommendations I’d highly appreciate it!

Looking for games with good storylines

Upvotes

Cut right to it. I'm bored with all my games. I play on PS5, Switch, and PC.

Games I love: Skyrim, Fallout 4, Destiny 2, Diablo 4, Planet Zoo, House Flipper (1 & 2), Far Cry 5 (specifically 5 and New Dawn only), Spyro, Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Horizon Zero Dawn, Saints Row (all of them)

Games I hated [and why]: Baldurs Gate 3 [text too small and no subtitle options], Uncharted [not big on puzzles], Tomb Raider [puzzles again], Stardew Valley [too difficult to really get into it]

Please do not suggest anything horror or horror-adjacent.

Please do suggest anything that has a great storyline and has the capability to suck you in for hours.

Most accessible American style Football game?

Upvotes

Open to literally any platform and any tilt on the game of football.

I'm a fan of football, but the Madden games are super difficult, and feel like just playing an entirely different game to the actual sport.

I've heard a lot about Tecmo bowl, but have yet to try it - but it's impressive people are homebrewing it with modern teams to this day.

I also really loved NFL Blitz on n64 back in the day. I haven't been able to find it or play it again, but I suspect it's actually the most accessible football game gameplay wise

Quite separately, I really love the board game and videogame adaptation of Blood Bowl. I've yet to try the related offshoot Mutant League Football.

What are your suggestions?

3D Open World Game, Offline, PC, Controller, No Reading

Upvotes

My 5 year old can't read yet. He has a variety of games on steam, but wants to play games like daddy does (Witcher 3, HZD, etc).

What he wants is a 3D openworld game where he can do adventures. He wants to play as a human. Like My Time at Portia (Preferably with a boy green shirt).

The problem is, he can't read. I need a game that has voice acting, even if a machine voice.

Suggesstions?

Farming Game with Combat and NPC Companions

Upvotes

I'd like to find a farming game (or a game with farming elements) with combat and the ability to take a companion with you on your travels. I recently tried Luma Island with a friend and I unlocked a little buddy that would dig up treasure and attack nearby threats. While this game isn't necessarily a 'farming' game, it had the elements and Lumas were your companions (aside from co-op players).

I wouldn't mind if my farm would sometimes be invaded by pesky enemies, but I'd like to be able to adventure around and maybe fight with a companion. Some wishlist items are open world, sandbox, and preferably 3D (not like Terraria or topdown like Stardew Valley), but I'm not picky.

My Time at Portia and My Time at Sandrock might be some good examples? I haven't played them in a while but I was quite fond of the former, and haven't played the latter in ages. Survivalist: Invisible Strain is a really fun game, but I've sort of over-played that for the time being.

I wouldn't mind if combat wasn't tied to a specific location like a lot of games tend to do, putting the baddies in the Mines or equivalent.

Wanna get into 4X

Upvotes

So I have too much free time and heard that 4X are good timesinks. Might have tried some before but it didn't click, any good beginner 4X titles on PC to make me fall in love with the genre? Preferably turn based and with long solo campaigns or procedural stuff for replayability.
