The latest rendition of Steam's annual Summer Sale has been underway for about a week now, and, as usual, it's discounted virtually everything on the PC games store. But while the Halos, Grand Theft Autos, and other mega-hits of the world may get the most front-page attention, the sheer breadth of the sale means that a truckload of lesser-known but more-than-worthwhile games have dropped to more approachable prices as well. To assist those who'd like to expand their interactive palate, I've rounded up a collection of recent under-the-radar games that are both worth your time and nicely discounted.
To be clear, this list isn't comprehensive. There are several thousand games on sale, and, unfortunately, we can't play everything. (As always, feel free to share your own recommendations below.) Definitions of "under-the-radar" may differ, but the vast majority of this list consists of games we haven't covered previously on Ars, and I've generally tried to avoid more well-publicized indies like Ars GOTY winners Hades and Celeste. So, allow us to shine a light on some good games that may not immediately seem laudable. Steam's sale ends on July 8, but you can consider these recommendations valid for afterwards as well.
