    I never really liked indie games and always tried to keep my steam library free of crap, but is there anything on the Greenlight One Year Anniversary Sale which is a must have? I am not too familiar with any of the titles on sale and lazy to click on every single one of em. Are any of them horror games or just bloody good?

    Nothing wrong with Indie games as long as they are good.

    Minecraft is an indie game, I heard it's pretty good.

    I thought your "good" was sarcasm for great. It is a very popular game. Reminds me of virtual legos in a way. Anyway, there are some good or great indie games out there. Best indie games | GamesRadar or 10 Indie Games So Good, You

    But I didn't see any in this greenlight sale that was worth it for me. Too many A list games I haven't played.

    Just get the Euro Truck Simulator 2 :D.
    I have it and I love it! But if in doubt, there is a demo which might help one to decide.

    Check out 7 Days to Die. Probably not on steam yet but is like Minecraft meets Day Z.
    It's brilliant so far.

    Legend of Grimrock is a shining example of an awesome indie game.
