It’s difficult to keep up with the regular release of 40, 50, and 60-dollar games, and it gets pretty pricey. A five-dollar game might sometimes provide more value than a costlier game. In this article, we have listed the ten best Steam games under $5.
10 best Steam games under $5
1. Armored Head
Armored Head is basically Doom with robots and no plot. You take on the role of a gladiator in a region, and your goal is to defeat waves of robots in order to obtain the prize.
There are hidden treasures everywhere across the arena, and the more gold coins you collect, the more features and powers you will be able to unlock and employ.
The game looks great, and the gunplay is excellent. It’s essentially a scaled-down version of Doom, but with robots.
The game is single-player only, but for only $2.99. It offers enough fun gameplay to warrant a place in your Steam library.

2. Who’s Your Daddy
If you’re searching for an incredibly amusing and bizarre game to play with a friend, Who’s Your Daddy is the game for you.
You are one of two characters in Who’s Your Daddy. You can play as either the Dad or the Baby.
If you’re the father, your job is to find your child and stop it from killing itself.
When you play as the baby, your goal is to do all in your power to kill yourself.
On Steam, the game costs $4.99. I really recommend this one if you can find a friend to play with.
3. Islanders
If you enjoy city building, Islanders is a terrific choice.
The game is distinct from other city-building games in that you do not have to grind for resources.
Instead, you construct towns on various islands and climates, and as you add more structures and expand, you receive more points. You can use those points to unlock new buildings.
The game is really calming and has received overwhelmingly great feedback on Steam.
The color is vivid, and the possibilities are boundless. The game costs $4.99, and if you enjoy these types of games, it’s worth a look.
4. Stick Fight
Stick Fight is a wacky 2-4 player combat game in which you play as a stick figure in brief matches.
The game drops weapons like firearms and swords at random during each match, and there are currently 100 different maps.
In addition, there are over 23,000 community-created maps and a level editor.
Really, the game is just a crazy quick combat game that can be a lot of fun with friends and has an active community, so you won’t have any trouble finding others to battle with.
The game costs $2.99.

5. Geometry Dash
If you’re unfamiliar with Geometry Dash, it’s a type of precision platformer. To complete the level, you only push one button to perfectly time your jumps or other activities.
The game also largely relies on aural cues from music and features some of the best rhythm-based music you’ll ever hear.
The game is truly engrossing, and no matter how much you rage, you’ll always find yourself returning to play more.
Geometry Dash is available for $3.99 on Steam.

6. SuperFlight
If you’re searching for a game to play lightly every now and then, SuperFlight is one to consider. You fly across a variety of vivid landscapes, and the closer you get to the mountains, the more points you earn.
It’s a fairly simple concept, but you’d be amazed at how many hours people have gotten out of it on Steam, not to mention how positive it is.
The game costs $2.99 on Steam, and I recommend it if you want something casual to keep in your library.
Superflight is available on Steam at https://store.steampowered.com/app/732430/Superflight/.
7. Forge and Fight!
Forge and Fight is a new game that was released recently. You play as a small warrior slash blacksmith, making your own outlandish weapons to use on online battlefields.
You may mix a wide range of weaponry, and the options are truly limitless. You can experiment with your designs and then compete against other players in the game.
The game is new, but you can get a lot of gameplay for $4.99.

8. Boris and The Dark Survival
Boris and The Dark Survival is an adventure strategy game with an overwhelmingly favorable Steam rating. You travel through various tasks to explore the game’s lore.
You must complete the missions while avoiding various types of opponents.
The game is a horror game, but it’s more of a mystery game.
The game is a fairly engaging single-player experience for $2.99.

9. Peekaboo
If you’ve ever played prop hunt in Garry’s Mod, this is essentially that mode turned into a standalone game.
In essence, there are two teams: props and hunters.
If you are a prop, you have time before each match to change and hide, whilst the hunters must find and kill the props before time runs out.
If prop hunt is one of your favorite game modes in GMod, Peekaboo is a game you’ll want to pick up, and it’s only $4.99 on Steam.

10. Seen
If you’ve played Little Nightmares, Inside, or other games in that genre, Seen will feel right at home.
It’s a side-scrolling puzzle platformer like the others, but it also has some timed running segments that can be perplexing at first. Overall, they did a good job of breaking up the gameplay and making it work in the end.
It’s a game where you’ll learn stuff. Not only that but the riddles and gameplay were a lot of fun for me.
The game costs less than two bucks, and given the story and experience, it’s a must-try.
