Initial scrolling of the Steam Summer Sale seems pretty lackluster, but digging through the comments sections in other threads, a few gems have stood out, and it doesn't appear we have a thread dedicated to this yet, so post what you think are the best deals here!

Not mandatory ofc, but it'd be helpful if...

One game per top level post, so comments stemming from it are focused on on just it.
Hyperlink the game title to its Store Page
Include both the normal and sale price / %off
Include a short blurb about the game - if it's one you've played before, what did you like about it? If you're diving in blind, what grabbed your attention?

Good hunt'n!

I really enjoyed hacknet, is this similar? :O

Only the theme really.

In hacknet, when you try to hack a target you'll see it has SSH and FTP services running. You run fake programs like SSHcrack.exe and FTPbounce.exe to exploit those services and the you're in.

In hackmud, when you try to hack a target you'll see it has an "ez_35" lock and a "c001" lock. The ez_35 lock requires an unlock word, something like "open", "unlock", "release" and a digit between 0 and 9. The c001 lock requires a color like "red" "purple" "lime". You need to enter the right inputs within the time limit to hack the target. You can do it manually, but most targets have too many locks with too many options to manually guess all of them in time. You'll need to write your own real life script in JavaScript that can detect locks and automatically guess every option for those locks. If you've ever done programming challenges then you shouldn't have too much difficulty writing these scripts. If you're new to programming it's not the easiest tutorial. The game provides very little direct help.
