This week, through January 30, Steam is offering deals on base-building games, colony management games, and city builders.

In addition to Steam's annual seasonal big sale (opens in new tab), there are plenty of smaller Steam events scattered throughout the calendar. Today through January 30 is the Steam Base Builder Fest, with deals on base builders, colony builders, and city builders. In other words, if you like to build things, take a look at the discounts and free demos available this week.

Base Builder Fest has some old favorites like Cities: Cities:Skylines and RimWorld, but it also has some new games like Farlanders (opens in a new tab) and Surviving the Abyss, which were just released last week. There are also discounts on brand new games like Stranded: Alien Dawn (open in new tab), which is only a few months old. There are also free demos for base builders that have not yet been released, such as Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles and SteamWorld Build (opens in new tab), a new city builder just announced today.

Here are a few games that caught our attention in this Steam sale:
