Humble Bundle’s latest activity is raising money for relief efforts in southern Türkiye and northern Syria as the earthquake killed more than 50,000 people and displaced thousands more. Bundle of more than 60 games, including some heavyweights like Knight of Gotham And XCOM 2next to some smaller gems like Backbone and Crisis Stories. Earthquake Relief Package available for £25/$30 (or whichever is higher) until 8 March and all proceeds will go to charity.
The package has raised more than £600,000 for relief efforts, split between three organisations: direct relief deploy emergency supplies to medical facilities, International Medical Corps provide critical services to affected communities, and save children who are supporting vulnerable children.
In total this package is worth over $1000/£900, so £25 is a bargain. It’s especially appealing because last year’s Gotham Knights still had its original Steam price of £50/$60. So you’re basically getting an open-world Bat-filled adventure for half the price, plus dozens of other games thrown in for good measure and all for a purpose. lofty.
In her review, AliceB called the Backbone detective adventure “probably the nicest game you’ll play this year,” even though it doesn’t quite fit the game. There are plenty of other highlights, but I wanted to see the cozy dioramic puzzle movie Harmony’s Odyssey. There are also a few books like the first ten volumes of the Saga manga series, as well as more than 20 games from Turkish teams and creators, including Mount & Blade: Warband. My Turkish reading skills are a bit poor, but I still understand the joke behind Stikir – one of the accompanying games.
