Steam’s last major event was the Summer Sale, which offered massive discounts on hundreds of games. The sale ended on July 10 after a two-week run, and most games have now returned to their original prices. Luckily, Steam has launched another event called Automation Fest. While it’s not nearly as big as the Summer Sale, there are still stop great deals on show, if you happen to be into automation-themed games.

From building a car factory to managing a cafe, you’ll find a bit of everything. And although this genre isn’t the first that springs to mind when you think of the Steam Deck, there are some relevant games well worth featuring.

Best Steam Deck games under $10 in the latest Automation Fest

The sale offers discounts on a wide range of games. To help you out, we’ve picked several titles under $10 that are worth checking out. Keep in mind that the Automation Fest ends on July 21, so you’ve got about six days (from the time of writing) to grab what you want before prices go back up.

As shown in the table above, all the games listed are Playable on the Steam Deck. For those unfamiliar, Valve uses a verification system to show how well a game runs on the handheld. If a game is marked as Playable, it means it runs fine, though you might need to adjust some settings for better performance or compatibility.

In any case, if you missed your chance to grab discounted games during the Steam Summer Sale, you might want to check out Humble’s ongoing Handheld Friendly Sale. They’ve got a great selection of Steam Deck Verified and Playable games priced under $10 and even under $5, available for a limited time.
