Well, that was a bit of a surprise. Valve has once again put up a Lunar New Year Sale, even though they previously announced they wouldn't be doing one. Although, Valve don't always stick to what they say, like last year they did a specific Chinese New Year Sale.
Anyway, that means you can once again get some easy discounts, if you need to fill up your library. Lucky you!
Browsing through here's a few fun suggestions for you:

Check out the Lunar New Year Sale 2024 on Steam. It runs until February 15th.
Are you picking anything up? Let me know in the comments if you think something is a particularly good deal.
Unfortunately, only one game on my wishlist is in this sale, and it's not discounted by very much, so I won't be picking anything up!
PS: I got The Case of the Golden Idol this morning after hearing really good things about it, but had the discount prior the sale I believe.

Quoting: ArehandoroPS: I got The Case of the Golden Idol this morning after hearing really good things about it, but had the discount prior the sale I believe.Thanks for the suggestion! This is right up my alley. Demo available too!
Quoting: Linux_RocksThe two Chinese games that I want most are of course not on sale (even though other games in those series are). Xuan-Yuan Sword VII and Sword and Fairy 6. D:Oh, and I highly recommend Sword and Fairy 7 to everyone. It's a great game, and incredibly gorgeous as well. The ray tracing on the jade floors is beautiful. Digital Foundry did a great video on it, and that's what introduced me to the series. The DLC is worth it too.

Is it enjoyable as a standalone experience or do you need to know the previous ones?
