    Humble Bundle Deals

    I thought I would start a humble bundle deals thread as they are coming out so often now that it might be nice to have a discussion in one place.

    Currently the Humble Bundle 11looks to be one the best so far with Meta Critic of 85 on average.

    Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams - 84
    The Swapper - 87
    Dust: An Elysian Tail - 85
    Guacamelee! Gold Edition - 88
    Antichamber - 82
    Monaco: What's Yours Is Mine - 83

    Guacamelee! has a meta critic rating of 88 and could be the suprsie package as I've never heard of it! I really got the bundle for Monaco; I have been wanting to play it for a while now. The average is only $4:31 too.

    Yeah, this is a great bundle; had my eye on Dust and Antichamber for a while. The others are all supposed to good too.

    And there will be more games added next Tuesday for above-the-average payers.

    Well worth getting just for The Swapper, one of my favourite games from last year. The puzzles need the same sort of mindset as Portal (and a couple had me really stumped, especially near the end), the atmosphere is great and it's a very interesting setting/storyline. The graphic style is fairly unique in that everything was modelled in clay and then digitized.

    Dust: An Elysian tail is also very good, mostly developed by a single person. The gameplay is very fluid, animations are detailed, controls are responsive - both keyboard+mouse and controller and the storyline is decent. Don't be put off by the fact the characters are furries!

    Antichamber - I got what it was trying to do, but I didn't find it very engaging. It seemed to me that the puzzles were solved more through experimentation rather than thinking them through.

    Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams - Great platformer. Good graphics, interesting art style, decent gameplay and getting all the gems is damn hard!

    Guacamelee and Monaco I've not played...

    Re: Humble Bundle Deals

    +1. I bought it purely for The Swapper

    I think the bundles are great, but I have found myself starting to buy a lot more from their store to be honest.

    Re: Humble Bundle Deals

    Guacamelee and Monaco are both fantastic.
    Haven't played any of the others, and don't really have any desire to so I haven't bought the bundle yet, going to see what other games are added first.

    Worth it just for the two I mentioned above though, especially when played with friends.

    Re: Humble Bundle Deals

    I usually love the HB. However, I have not been interested in the latest bundle - some of the games do look pretty interesting though... I'm looking forward to see what the next weekly sale brings us

    The Humble Bundle is brilliant, one of the best bundles was the Sid Meier Bundle with a tonne of games include Civ 4 and 5 with all DLC! Truly fantastic and I'm happy to support charities and the game devs!
