So you are looking for a new experience in gaming. But the mainstream market is getting you down with its high price tags and extensive DRM. But there's a lot of great games out there that you can get cheap. The indie market is strong, and some of the best games around can be found for half the price of the price of more mainstream games like Dead Rising or Fallout 3. They've also got far less rigorous specs than their mainstream counterparts, which is also a welcome change of pace. We've got a list of some of the best indie games money can buy, ranging from the puzzle extravaganza World of Goo to the clever and addicting Armageddon Empires. So indulge in the little guy this holiday season. You won't be disappointed with the results you get.

Deadly Rooms of Death is a great indie dungeon crawler/puzzler which, unfortunately, doesn't receive the attention it really deserves. The latest entry, The City Beneath, expanded upon the already magnificent puzzle-based gameplay in a myriad of ways. It was also released last year (in April) to little fanfare except in the indie community. Thankfully, though, there is now an official trailer that shows off some of the excellent gameplay elements. You can check out the embedded video after the break. If it interests you, check out the main site for a demo and ways to get the full version.
