Here's Some Games I Played Ahead Of Steam Next Fest That You Should Try For Yourself!

Tiny Garden

Tiny Garden is exactly what it sounds like—a cozy farming game where you plant tiny vegetables in a music box. As you harvest your crops, you can use them to buy seeds and unlock even more vegetables. Beyond its relaxing atmosphere, the game lets you customize your Tiny Garden however you like. It may be simple, but it has a way of drawing you in.

Grandma, No!

Grandma, No! is pure chaos, it’s almost impossible to describe. The demo is incredibly short, so I highly recommend experiencing it for yourself. It’s one of those quirky, random-task games where the real fun comes from discovering all the bizarre little details. While you're technically supposed to be babysitting, you might end up setting the house on fire or having a full-blown meltdown instead. It’s a hilarious, off-the-rails experience that’s well worth checking out.

KIBORG

If you enjoy roguelikes that throw relentless waves of enemies at you, KIBORG might be right up your alley. The game is tough but undeniably fun. I’ll admit, the enemy variety could use some improvement, and the upgrade tree isn’t the deepest—but it still delivers a thrilling action experience that feels like a throwback to classic arcade-style games.2

Kaya’s Prophecy

At first, I thought it was just another deck-building game where you spend action points and try to survive. But the city-building aspect truly sets it apart. Deck-building isn’t just for combat—you also need to carefully manage your cards to construct buildings and keep your village thriving. Kaya’s Prophecy is a one-of-a-kind experience, and I highly recommend checking it out!.

Cattle Country

It’s almost impossible not to compare Cattle Country to Stardew Valley—the inspiration is clear in nearly every aspect. However, it does have its own charm, leaning more into a country lifestyle. While the differences are subtle, if you’re craving a game with Stardew’s familiar gameplay loop plus a little extra, this might be the perfect fit for you.
