Hello, i was wondering if there are any good indie games on steam to try out. Can be free or paid, i don't mind if there's no native linux build either (i play stuff with wine/proton anyways lol) and i don't mind the genre. I've been thinking of trying something new as of recent so i thought i might ask it here.

Thanks!

If you liked Obra Dinn, I really like The Roottrees are Dead which was very similar but kind of different.

    My partner and I played Roottrees together and I think it might have been our favourite game ever. We really enjoyed The Case of the Golden Idol too which scratches a similar itch (though I would love for them to make a Roottrees sequel)

    Thanks for the recommendation. That looks interesting. Added to my wishlist. Hope there's not too much typing or it might get tiresome on the steam deck.

    Well you can highlight text to search for, instead of typing, but still I wouldn't really recommend it for the deck I guess. Maybe with the trackpads simulating a mouse, but I haven't tried it to see how it feels. I played it on a pc proper.
