The Rusty Lake Bundle is 71% off on Steam. It is a complete-the-set bundle, so if you already own some of the games, you will only pay for the ones you don’t have.
The Rusty Lake games are a series of shared-universe point-and-click escape room games that feel like the kind of web games you could find made in Flash in the mid-2000s. The games aren’t explicitly horror but go for a more unsettling, off-putting vibe.
The bundle contains the following games:
The DLC is for Cube Escape: Paradox which is free (and can act as a sort of demo for the series — if you like it you will probably enjoy the rest).
The Past Within is an asymmetric co-op game similar to the We Were Here series where two players have to work together to solve the puzzles by sharing information with each other.
Jackbox 8 on Fanatical for 13$ and change!

I've played all the Jackbox games at least once, I think 8 is probably the most solid as a pack. All the games are fun, and hit different types of people!
Free EGS games of the week:
LISA: The Definitive Edition: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/bundles/lisa-the-definitive-edition
Industria: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/industria
I've had LISA on my wishlist for a while, so this is a great week for me!
Sega's Golden Week Sale on Steam:
https://store.steampowered.com/curator/32528477/sale/goldenweeksale2024/
Includes a historical low on Persona 5 Royal, NieR: Automata, and a 30% sale on Persona 3 Reload!
Watch out for that Persona Collection on the bundles tab, P5:R, and P4:G pages -- it has Persona 3 Portable, not the new Reloaded. (Reloaded is on sale still, just not in the bundle).
Tekken 8 is on sale for the first time on Steam afaik, 30% off
I'm torn on getting it, because I have friends I'd like to goof around on it with, but the recent reviews are Mostly Negative...
I don't play fighting games often but I've heard a lot of chatter that they broke the netcode this last release or something. I heard it's still really fun though!
