I've got a few other demos I downloaded to try, I'll report back if any of them catch my fancy like The Wandering Village did. It does feel slightly bare-bones at the moment, as I researched probably about half the research tree in the demo, but it's also listed as version 0.1.11, so assuming the developers** keep up the good work on it it'll be an insta-buy from me. The art style is really cool, with a mixture of 3D and (really well done) 2D art. It travels about the world map passing sites of interest that you can explore as you pass by, and goes through different biomes which affect your strategy*. It's a city builder-type game with the twist that your band of refugees (from mysterious toxic spores growing around the world) is building their village on top of a gargantuan megabeast called an Onbu, which you can research the ability to feed, doctor, and guide. I tried out The Wandering Village last night and got hooked-I only meant to try it for half an hour or so until I got bored, and I ended up playing two hours until the demo ended.

Obviously we can't go linking to every single possible demo and no one wants that - so what's around that's worth taking a look at? Here's a few I think could end up being something special: Not only can you expect to see a ton of limited-time playable demos (some devs keep them up), there's also a week full of livestreams and developer chats direct on store pages. Ready to have a busy week? Steam Next Fest: February 2022 Edition is officially live and there's plenty of indie developers showing off their latest.
