I see Oceanhorn has a big discount (65%). How is it?

@toiletduck its decent enough for 5. Its a zelda clone but don't expect it to push the boundaries like some better zelda clones did( ittle dew and blossom tales). Honestly if you haven't played blossom tales yet and you want a zelda esque game, between the two, go with blossom tales. Its far better and its the same price right now I believe.

@NintendoByNature hehe I've played quite a big part of Blossom Tales already. Couldn't bother to finish it though, got bored at around 2/3 of the game. So with that in mind I may as well pass on this. Thanks!

I wonder if we will get color option for Taxi Chaos.
Different country have different color of Taxi.
Here in Indonesia there is Light Blue taxi and Orange color taxi.

No good deed
Will I do
AGAIN...!!!

@WaveWitch
That's true for the majority of Crafted World, but I get the feeling you haven't tried the secret levels after you beat the game.

@WaveWitch I've only played pirates curse and loved it. But the person to probably ask is @Ralizah. It's one of their favorite series and I'm sure you'll be steered in the right direction.

@WaveWitch I personally prefer half genie hero, but most others will say pirate’s curse.

@WaveWitch I enjoyed Pirate's Curse more of the two, although I played it back on the 3DS where it looks nicest visually. Half-Genie Hero is fun too though so can't go wrong with either.

Canhas

I'm in between Mario+Rabbids Kingdom Battles or Starlink: Battle for Atlas.
The two are with a massive discount... some feedback pls!

Canhas

WoomyNNYes

@Canhas Mario+Rabbids was more consistently praised. I don't even like turn based combat and I LOVED Mario+Rabbids - This one is an easy recommendation.

I got Starlink, but it didn't win me over, only played it for about 2-3 hours. To be fair, I've never gotten into air combat games. Other people will have differing opinions on Starlink. So, take my Starlink opinion with a grain of salt. But reivew-wise, it is accurate to say Mario+Rabbids got higher reviews across the board.

@Canhas Mario + Rabbids is a must-own if you like tactical experiences. It's like XCOM with more dynamic movement, elaborate overworld exploration/puzzles, and more creative level design. And it's also one of the best-looking games on the system.

Starlink is... interesting? It's alright. I'm still not sure what I think of it, to be honest.

So folks, hold on to your hats, because I've been leafing through the "under $4/€4" section in the eShop, and found that there's a hell of a lot available, also the more known games, and even some from the article that NLife posted earlier about hidden gems. Either way, I decided to put together a list, so here we go:

There should be something in there for everyone, but better get them while they're hot, because the discounts only last for a couple of days.

If you like sim, arcade or sci-fi race games, and you still don't own any or some of these titles, then there's no reason anymore to not grab them now:

  • Gear Club Unlimited
  • Xenon Racer
  • Overlanders
  • Moto Racer 4

Are you more into platformers and/or Metroidvanias, then take a look at these:

  • Horace
  • Toki
  • Max - The Curse of Brotherhood
  • Flashback
  • Shift Happens
  • Super Chariot
  • The Way: Remastered
  • The Bridge
  • Fox n Forests

RPG's and/or RPG adventures more your thing?

  • Jotun
  • Bastion
  • Cat Quest
  • Transistor
  • Dragon Quest
  • The Shrouded Isle

Puzzlers?

  • Warp Shift
  • Death Squared
  • When Ski Lifts Go Wrong
  • Hue
  • Mekorama
  • Forma.8

Sports?

  • Urban Trial Playground
  • Golazo!
  • The Golf

Adventures or point & click games?

  • Syberia 1 & 2 bundel
  • The Room
  • Deponia 1, 2 & 3
  • Machinarium
  • State of Mind
  • Agent A
  • Storm Boy: The Game
  • Slender: The Arrival
  • Beat Cop
  • The Flame in the Flood: Complete Edition
  • MIND: Path to Thalamus
  • The Long Reach

Shooters?

  • Vasara Collection
  • Manticore: Galaxy on Fire

Fighters?

  • 99 Vidas
  • Wulverblade

Strategy games?

  • X-Morph: Defense Complete Edition
  • Sheltered

Other recommendations under $4/€4:

  • Crypt of the NecroDancer
  • Cluster Truck
  • Felix the Reaper
  • Neon Drive

Well, that's about it. Mind you: they're definitely not all triple A titles, but for less than 4 bucks they're more than their money's worth in entertainment value, so if you're still looking for something to scratch that gaming itch, you could definitely do worse than grab any of these for their current prices.

I've picked up Lethal League Blaze(50% off). Great little game, a bit like squash crossed with Smash Bros. The developers are working on a spiritual successor to Jet set radio, which I'm looking forward to.

I also picked up Horace, I almost feel bad, I picked it up for £1. It's great, worth a whole lot more

Thanks for this post! Lots of great games to get from this list. I’ve played a few that were simply the best period. Most of your point and click choices I played on the PSVITA and I simply loved them, many like Syberia are GOTY winners.

The PSVR is the best VR system on the market today.
