For me this one was great in order to get sequels for games I already own! I also had Sticky Business on my wishlist because I love cozy games haha.

[Fraggles]

Another month another 5-6 disappointments.

[Danacscott]

Gotham Knights has a pretty interesting premise. Didn’t watch much of the game play but it seems decently fun.

for sure getting this one for Coral Island, looking forward to their multiplayer update which hopefully isn’t affected by the Humble Games layoffs , and my son will want the Spongebob game

[Pylinaer]

Hmm… I’ll have to think on this one.

[blomvik]

It seems the community is mostly happy with the state of Coral Island at the moment.
If i needed something to play at the moment i would prolly go for the bundle, but alas time.

A pity @Sortskjegg is no longer here…

[Fraggles]

My goodness, this actually look like a bundle I might consider getting for once. Can’t remember when that last happened.

New month, new choices for Humble (leaked already).

And I was thinking on buying P4G on a sale. A pity @Sortskjegg is no longer here…

[anyamtikja]

these are games that i mostly recognize so a pretty good month in my opinion
that said i am not going to buy it:)

[blomvik]

Casette Beasts is a fun monster battler with a great soundtrack. Highly recommended.

Does anyone have a key for Bomb Rush, please ?

I also expect @Fraggles to come here to complain about it.

[Tencore]

I always get these bundles but not until the end of the month so if you still need Bomb Rush then you can have my key. Just try to remind me because I will probably forget lol

[Fraggles]

Actually doesn’t seem like a bad bundle, just not really interested in it myself.
I hear Crime Boss is pretty good heist game. Atlas Fallen might be the one I’d have some interest in, Deck13 keeps trying to make soulslike games in a variety of different themes. At some point I’m sure they’ll make one that’s really good.

Atlas Fallen is on my wishlist - huge monsters in the desert aka Starsand reminiscent - count me in! I like Moonstone too - lots to pet XD. If I can, and get it for month’s end, I wouldn’t want anything else in the bundle, though it seems all of these are rated Overwhelmingly Positive.

[carvalho20ptc]

Thanks but no need. I got a game key for very cheap on Eneba.
The key worked like a charm.

I also got Persona 4 Golden from there.
