I have 25GB-ish left on my steam deck. I like to save space for saves and stuff, so im looking for a game under 20.

Whats a fun small-med sized game youve been playing?

EDIT!!
Awesome suggestions so far everyone. I picked up the following games right now:

Farcry Primal
Mina the Hollower
Animal Well
Streets of Rogue
Deep Rock Galactic
Heart of the Machine
Inscryption
Moonrise Fall
Slay the Spire

I’m saving this post for future use

    Outer Wilds is 8GB, and the best puzzle/mystery game I have ever played. The less you know about the game up front, the better.

        Give it a shot with the mods after you finish the game (+dlc) too, a lot of them are great! I tried the archipelago randomizer today along with ship enhancements on max random difficulty, it is a wild time.

        Also wanted to rec a game like Lorn’s Lure, White Knuckle, or Idols of Ash (fair warning, I picked up the last one just yesterday, but it is pretty high rated and seems like Lorn’s Lure which I had a great time with). Those are unrelated to Outer Wilds, but didn’t want to leave multiple comments

          I’ve looked at mods for Outer wilds before. I did like the VO mod. Most of the actors are decent enough to work.

          Ill look up those other games, thanks!

    Balatro is tiny, like 150 MB tiny. And endlessly playable. If you like poker and/or rogue likes it’s pound for pound one of the best deals out there both money and memory wise

    Balatro and Slay The Spire 2 are roguelikes that have a lot of replayability.

    Trackmania, you can give it a shot with Nations Forever it’s free on steam. Turbo/TM2 are graphically improved versions of it, 2020 is the newest one that most people play but has a lot of its features locked behind a yearly subscription. Go with the previous ones if offline play is a must.

    Baba Is You is a real brain burner puzzle game that makes you think out of the box a lot of time.

    If you havent yet played Portal / Portal 2, together they are about 20 Gigs, and are both very good, genre and generation defining games.

      Even with the added gamepad controls i cant get into this game. I also played satisfactory and ran into the same roadblock. Im just not tuned to create machins like that.

          I just got sucked into Planet Crafter for like a week. So i figured im primed for satisfactory. But no, the loop is just over my head in the “build machines” genre

    Both Hades and Hades II are about 11GB. Either one will fit or you could increase your limit just a bit and fit both.

    My indie action platformer No More Mages is in early access (with a free demo) if you feel like taking a shot at a truly unknown game! More being added soon.

    I haven’t tried it yet, but Mina the Hollower just released and seems really cool. Should be way less than 20 GB.

    Gotta plug my friends games, not that they’re unknown, just the first things that come to mind and they’re all small to small-ish in size (I think they might even be under 20gb for all combined).

    Hotline Miami
    Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number
    Raft
    Sea Salt
    Post Void
    Keep Driving

    I developed my taste in PC games before I had a graphics card, so…

    • Baba Is You, a minimalist puzzle game with a Portal’s worth of perception bending
    • Hypnospace Outlaw, a story-driven 90’s-styled computer/internet simulator with a shocking amount of good diegetic indie music. Like, more than one entire album.
    • Celeste

    I’ve already played these games to death and back so I haven’t really been playing them in the present tense

    Haven’t seen anyone mention Slay the Spire yet. The original is under 600MB and the sequel (early-access) is 2GB. They’re both good! The first one is maybe a little easier, if you’ve never played them.
