Honestly I disagree with some comments here. I wouldn’t make a separate community. Just do it here. The community is small as-is, no need to splinter it down any further.

Also, I don’t think games would just have to be cheap, they’d also have to be short. That makes the barrier of entry a bit lower.

There’s already a Gameclub on the official Patient Gamers Discord (https://discord.gg/patientgamers). Every month they choose a Long Game and a Short Game to discuss and play together. This month’s games are Hotel Dusk and Hitman: Blood Money.

If you’re on Backloggd, there’s also the unofficial Backloggd Discord Game of the Week, with a greater focus on weird/obscure short games.

I would love for that to be a thing!

I agree that it should be done in this community instead of creating a new one. If you need any help with anything, please let me know as I would be glad to help

Fan of the idea, thought of something like this for a couple of friends I have on Discord, and it is both fun and valuable, since the suggestions come in a more natural, discussion-like manner between a circle of passionate people, instead of the algorithmic approach of Steam and critic aggregates. Please do such a community and let’s get this started!

It’s a great idea - I don’t have much time for gaming anymore, but I’m sure others would be keen to participate!

If you’re interested, Patient Gamers discord has been running Game of the Month for a while now. Each month, two titles are picked via nominations & voting (people running it first choose a theme, be it genre, feel or whatever, then games are chosen), one long game, one short, then people can discuss.
