Any games with less than 1000 total Steam reviews you’ve enjoyed and thought more people ought to know about? Not a hard limit, just a guideline for what could be classified as “undiscovered” on Steam, assuming it wasn’t released yesterday.

I would recommend:

  • Full Bore, a cute block-based puzzle platformer. Solid mechanics, level designs and even a somewhat engaging story. Unfortunately hasn’t been on a sale since 2021 according to steampricehistory.com, while it was frequently reduced to €2-3 before that. Not sure I’d recommend it to everybody at full price, but IMO it’s one of the best indie platformers I’ve played. edit: Did someone email the creator of Full Bore or something? It’s suddenly on sale again, for the first time in ages :) Go buy it!

I’ll go with “less than 100 reviews”, as with “less than 1000” my list would get really, really long. This leaves two titles in my Steam Library which I think deserve way more attention than they got:

  • ComPressure: It’s a Zachtronics-like game, where you build analogue and logic circuits using steam pipes and valves instead of wires and transistors. Its UI is a bit unwieldy, but the game itself is amazing, and it really is a shame that it hasn’t gotten more attention. Also, while there is a paid version on Steam, the game’s source code is available.
  • Crown of Pain: It’s a match-3 with RPG elements. That’s basically all that is to it, but it’s a lot of fun.

I initially wrote 100, but when starting to look through my Steam library I realized how few games had that few reviews. All the indie games I thought might be borderline unknown turned out to have 5k+ reviews.
