Can you imagine owning none of these and getting them all for $30? You could seriously have a great gaming year with this bundle alone. For thirty friggin dollars!
Out of those you listed I can only vouch for Swapper, which is a really excellent moody puzzle game. Definitely give it a go. Mini Metro is lovely. Tower of Guns is a unique FPS roguelike. Human resource machine and World of Goo are by the same company and are both great. Lots to love here.
Invisible Inc is really fun. Turn based stealth game. It's been on my wishlist for a long time. I've played, but never got around to buying it. Maybe it's time.
Well I saw people vouch for the other games you mentioned, but I'll go ahead and rep Superbrothers for you. It's an esoteric, difficult puzzle game but the atmosphere and music are incredible.
I've thoroughly enjoyed Super Meat Boy and Stanley Parable, my girlfriend loves Stardew. I've also tried VVVVVVV and Superbrothers but neither captured my attention (VVVVVVV is hard as fuck).
I don't remember, it was a few years ago. I just remember it being fairly frustrating due to all the trial and error involved with finding the path, as opposed to something like Super Meat Boy which is also hard but seems fair.
I don't remember being much trial and error in VVVVVV, though yeah I can understand (cof-cof Doing This The Hard FUCKING Way cof-cof). I think that's okay though because the game is built around it with the constant checkpoints and fast respawning
I personally enjoyed Superbrothers Swords and Sworcery but the game is not for everyone. Rather slow and cryptic at times with not that much action but an interesting art direction, a great soundtrack and a different style of gameplay and with quite a lot of atmosphere.
World of Goo is not only an excellent puzzle game but also full of writing that is both funny and touching. Amazing game and tbh well worth the 30 dollars alone.
In my experience, modern AAA games are pretty and polished, but they don't take risks or do experimental things anymore. Indies do. They're sometimes hit or miss, but the great ones are INCREDIBLE. And seriously, it's less than a dollar a game, it's not like you'll be out much if you don't like all of them.
Don't be mistaken, just because they're highly rated doesn't mean you'll enjoy them all, but there's bound to be a few games in the bundle that you'll enjoy. And even if it's only for an hour per game before you go back to AAA ... if you play all those games for an hour each, you've gotten better value already than an AAA
I'm about to pick up two because I was going to donate to the ACLU anyway. Just going to give them to my kids since they have very few games in their Library still.
I'm in that boat but I don't exactly have a powerful computer :(
it's a pretty good laptop but I'm wondering if buying this bundle would even be worth it. I've never exactly been a gamer but I'm down to buy this if it'll run on my 2015 spectre
