What are must-have games in the current Steam Sale? (lemm.ee)

I've about $50 in my steam wallet and I'm wondering what this community would think are must-haves. I'm currently eyeing Satisfactory and Potion Craft and am worried I'm missing out on any great deals.

ProtonDB gave both a platinum rating, yet Steam says playable lol

Steam's checkmark rating is based on a very specific set of criteria, like if the game plays well on gamepad, if the UI elements work on small displays, if it requires keyboard input, etc. Yellow check means the game will play, green means it theoretically has an experience which is on par with native console games.

ProtonDB only cares how good the Linux compatibility is in general, not specifically on the Steam Deck.

ProtonDB now has their top results specifically for the Deck, which is annoying since I only care about general Linux compatibility and would like to remove them. I can filter my results to show matching OS / graphics card, which is great, but only once I've scrolled passed a whole pile of stuff I don't care about.
