Short Steam games (6-7 hrs max to finish) that you can recommend?

Dear Esther, LIMBO, Portal

it´s in your library http://store.steampowered.com/app/265210/ and a decembergame :-)

VVVVVV

this might be useful.

There are TONS of games like these. Most indie games actually. Like a huge majority.

Botanicula, you have this game.

5-6 hours are enough for 100%

Dust: an elysium tale (maybe takes a little longer)
Call of Juarez Gunslinger
Family Guy back to the multiverse
Portal 1+2

list organised by time to get 100% achievements :)

The Plan (it's free too)

Do games like Dream Machine and anything from Telltale count? The chapters are maybe a couple of hours long at best so you're looking at maybe 10 hours tops for each...

Here are my recommendations:

Hotline Miami

The Darkness II

Max Payne 3

Bulletstorm

Far Cry® 3 Blood Dragon

Hard Reset

Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light

Mirror's Edge

Homefront

Shank / Shank 2

Crysis Warhead

the walking dead ( season 1 and 2 ) are very short :D

spec ops the line...6-7 hr game...
call of duty ghosts...beat it in 7 hrs...
dreamfall chapters episode 1...beat it in 5.5 hrs/6 hrs...people have beat it in 3-4 hrs

If you don't mind visual novels, and read through text fast, Sunrider would be a good choice for you.

Call of Duty series.

morrowind - 15-20-30min, cant remember exactly

Bad rats

Hitman Absolution

Bastion
Transistor
Portal
Portal 2

METAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE

How Long to Beat:
Main Story:6 Hours
Main Story and Extras:9 Hours
Completionist:25 Hours

not my type of game tho, but its cheap right now and people say its good

The Darkness II

Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes

Certainly fun on its own but the story won't make any sense without having played at least Metal Gear Solid 3 and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Consider those later too, if you have more time.

Jazzpunk takes about 2 hours.
Hero of the Kingdom just a little more

any new Call of Duty singleplayer lol
