    rhythm is just a *click* away!

    osu! - Free rhythm game, with user made beatmaps for songs. Only downside is most of the songs are anime so if you dont listen to a lot of anime music you may be strapped for song choice. BeamNG.Drive (24.99 USD) - Open world softbody car sandbox. Lets you crash cars with realistic physics, weirdly fun and addictive. Also good for more serious car challenges should you ever wanna try them. Cities: Skylines (29.99 USD)- A city builder with steam workshop support! Fun, detailed, easy to manage and quick to learn. Mods make the game more fun and detailed as you go! Factorio (30.00 USD) - A hyper addictive 2D factory builder game that's effectively crack cocaine. Has a free demo!
