As for Vampire Survivor. It's pacman mixed with robotron. You use only the control stick. No menus, just pickup and play. Yes, it looks like a Nintendo game but it's just a VERY easy to get into good time and a game that you can sink hours into by accident.

Gamepass is killing it. Vampire Survivors is fun as hell, ugly as sin but def has that "ok one more run" vibe.
Somerville looks good at recent reviews have been very good.
Dune:Spice Wars has been on my Steam wishlist for a while, initial reviews kept me away from buying but now I can see for myself on gamepass.
