Dozens of strategy, management, and job sims are going cheap in Steam's Sim Fest
The Steam Sim Fest is the latest genre-specific event, discounting dozens of games about emerging cities, dad hobbies, tactical warfare, and other stimulating simulations.

Wobbly person sim Human: Fall Flat has a hefty 70% discount and is currently £4.80/$6.50. To celebrate the puzzle-platformer’s seventh anniversary, the team are also sharing some mysterious news tomorrow. That’s in addition to a new level coming in August, so look forward to more clumsy flailing.

Some early access hits are also participating in the savings, including the old-school strategy Xenonauts 2 which just came out, and village (on the back of a beast) builder The Wandering Village
