Steam is absolutely lousy with deckbuilders, backrooms and vampire survivors clones right now.
Me: "Maybe I'll check out that Spooky's Jumpscare Mansion game, it seems cool and it's free"
Steam: Do you want to play fifty five thousand backrooms games? You can't filter them without just filtering the "horror" tag entirely because they're not their own genre yet
at least the survivors clones are all gradually turning into completely normal twin stick shooters as people try and make the genre something actually interesting
i don't think i've gotten into a fad genre since i put down mobas. battle royales and extraction shooters scare the shit out of me for the same reason i can't play counter strike. i have nothing against tarkov or pubg or slay the spire specifically, i just hate seeing trailers at the game awards for games that were clearly mandated by the bean counters to cash in on last year's fad.
