None of the games in their list spoke to me and pretty much none of the ones I looked at on Steam caught my eye. The only one that caught my eye was balatro, and even then, based on gameplay I've seen, it doesn't seem like a game I'd enjoy playing over just watching someone else play instead.

I've tried Balatro. It's pretty fun. But you're probably also right that it's a great "watch someone else do the hard work" game.

If you like deck builders, it’s surprisingly good. Takes a while to get going, and it’s not Inscryption that I can tell. But it’s solid and i wound up playing for 2 hours.
