The Steam Summer Sale is on and there’s plenty of threads asking for great deals and hidden gems. So let’s jump on that bandwagon! Anybody spotted any good deals on adventure games in the Steam sale?

Here’s a few cheap and good experiences I spotted:

Broken Age: $3.74

Sam and Max Hit the Road: $2.09

Space Quest Collection: $6.59

The 7th Guest 25th Anniversary Edition: $7.49

I just got The Last Door yesterday, interesting story (at least in the first part) and it gets the creepy atmosphere just right, though the puzzles are pretty easy.

Also, Lair of the Clockwork God is awesome and everyone should play it.

Some recent ones I like that I haven’t seen mentioned yet are
NORCO
Thaumistry
The Nick Bounty trilogy
The Aching
Blood Nova

And then some games that aren’t traditional adventure games but have some adventure game or Interactive Fiction elements:
Lake
Citizen Sleeper
Cartomancy Anthology

I haven’t played any of those either. There’s a lot more adventure games on Steam than I thought…
