Top 48 Indie Games On Steam

I have already posted and reviewed my Top 24 Indie & Casual Games that are available on Steam but that was way over 5 months ago and I have purchased a lot since then. As I've added more to my ridiculously large collection (I've bought 115 games now!!) and I'm feeling a bit bored I thought I'd post my Top 48. Steam is a reputable and trusted site where you can download various games. They do allsorts, including the big budget games from the more well-known companies as well as a great selection of quality games from the lesser known, independent makers. These games all cost around a fiver but you can pick a lot up for just 2 or 3 quid:
