Anyways, I picked up a few games.
- Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate + Injustice 2 Legendary Edition ($9.99) I had no fighting games in my library surprisingly! So why not?
- Middle-earth: The Shadow Bundle ($6.99) Played the first Middle-earth on PS4 when it first came out, was pretty good, but never finished it.
- DiRT Rally 2.0 ($1.99!) All time low price.
- X-Morph: Defense ($0.99!) All time low price.
- Space Run ($0.74) Looks like a unique space tower defense.
There's more on the wishlist but I'll wait for the Autumn and Winter sales.

It's very maze-like, and I get the feeling navigation is supposed to be more intuitive with repetition, but I just can't do it. The puzzles (like finding switches to operate doors in other parts of the map) is a big task all on its own.
