Not sure if this goes here but i have a steam giftcard, but i also like free stuff for example piracy even if i barley do so and dont know much about it.

Its only 20 bucks but im not sure what its worth putting into.

Should i just get like a steam deck or something with a mix of my money and the gift card?

What would you advise?

    There are many independent small indie games, many DRM free, for less than $20 on steam. What kind of games do you play if any?

      I really like games with replayiblity such as roguelikes, open world rpgs like skyrim for example, but i have so many hard roguelikes that ive grown sorta sick of them and i can never usually beat them.

      Im trying to explore more types of games but havent really done so.

        Have a look at Factorio. It’s DRM free and you can easily spend hundreds or thousands of hours on it if you like it. Try the free demo first. Also keep in mind that it’s never on sale (or always, depends how you look at it). Be warned though, it’s very addictive.

          Here we see, another innocent victim being drawn into the addictive clutches of Cracktorio. The factory must grow.
