The Steam winter sales are here, up to the 4rth of January.

What game did you enjoy playing and want to share with the community, and why?

It's like a mini (or a bit larger) review for the people in the community to discover your loved game, and get it for a smaller price. Also remember to share a link to the store page to help people find the game.

The game must be on sale currently and must not be a free to play game, or what would be point of this post.

The release date doesn't matter. Neither the sale amount. If you enjoyed the game, it should be shared.

You can put the game type/tags at the beginning of your comment if you wish so, it may help other people.

Please a single game per comment if you post a review.

I'll start in the comments.

I’ve been playing Roboquest the last few days and have to say it’s the most fun I’ve had playing a shooter in a long time. https://store.steampowered.com/app/692890/Roboquest/

Does Roboquest have LAN? Searches in the forums lead to dead links for answers.

I fired it up and didn’t see any multi player options.

Really? It advertises co-op on the store page.

edit: I see multi player after digging through the menu, but it appears to be steam friends.

I don't know if it has a LAN specific option. but If you are both playing on Steam or Epic, it supports multiplayer/crossplay between the two platforms. Though you don't access it directly from the home screen. Play through the beginning tutorial section till you reach your home base, then one of the buildings you can interact with is the multiplayer menu.

No LAN is a no-go for me lately, for multiplayer games. I'm tired of games being designed with forced obsolescence. Sometimes you get lucky and the game has LAN but doesn't list it on the features, so I figured I'd ask.

That's fair. I'll double check this week and let you know if it's got direct LAN multiplayer.

Thanks, I appreciate it. I feel like it's been a while since FPS games have been made for me.

sorry to get back to you super late on this. Roboquest doesn't seem to have a traditional LAN setup without some sort of modding. I did find out recently that Lethal Company does have LAN multiplayer if that isn't already on your radar. Good luck.
