Might not end up in a bundle. Orcs Must Die (also published by Robot) has yet to be in any bundle and you'd think they would have put the first one in one to publicize the second game.

I suppose it seems like a perfect candidate for a Humble Android Bundle but, again, it's odd that the developer hasn't stuck OMD1 in anything yet.

Re: the game itself. Biggest problem is it isn't very suited for the PC with it's 'play-by-email' sort of design. On a phone you just get alters when it's time to make a move, on the PC I assume you have to proactively launch the game once in a while to check. Also seems to have a problem with not a lot of players and/or people not finishing games.

Think I've, at least, talked myself out of the gold edition and might just take the $1 flyer on the base and if I don't like it I'll only be out $1 as opposed to $4.

I highly doubt it will be in a Humble Android Bundle since there is no Android version and no plans to make one. The having to actively check your games is a bit of a pain, but I find if I launch it once or twice a day via Steam that I can spend a minute or two, check my turns, and play any that need it.

If you're someone who's partially interested, I'd say grab the base game for $1 and then grab the other teams in a later sale.

Well that answers that. And, yeah, I'll probably just end up grabbing the base game and 'upgrade' to gold in the next sale if I actually play it a bit.

We have about 10 or so flash deals left and none of the games on my wishlist have hit 66%, let alone 75%. The old Star Wars games, Cladun, To the Moon, all of these should have had a sale by now. Steam used to be a great place to get old or small games for cheap, but apparently not anymore.

I got the FEAR complete pack on July 16 this year for $9.99...if that helps you hold off any longer. I think it was a price error for a few minutes or something.

You got it from Steam or Amazon? Because in Amazon was 9.99 indeed but didn't include the DLC.

Eh, there have already been a ton of indie games on daily and flash.

If you haven't already and want to go in on the 2 pack, let me know.

Well it's sub-free, so at least you know how much you'll spend on it. The story and setting is meant to be very good, the combat less so. After 3 1/2 years of WoW, I like anything a bit different. I'd suggest Guild Wars 2 as well, same payment model, good game. No real end-game content but the levelling process is pretty cool.

As for ARPG, look for Torchlight 2 when it's cheap. I've been playing it and I've had a blast. Moreso than Diablo 3 which I felt was very grindy in the end.

Thanks for the offer although it's probably something I'll debate until the eleventh hour given it's only a $0.24 difference.

Actually, I take back my plans to get HA Gold. I'll bite on the base game so I can get the TF2 team on my phone, but there's a sale going on teams on the app too, so I can just get shaolin for $1 there and keep not caring about the dwarves.

It was Steam.

Yeah, all the indie games we see everywhere. I'm talking about the ones that no one seems to ever have on sale like SW: Battlefront 2 or Hinterland These sorts of titles are what flash sales should be used for, not Chivalry or Mirror's Edge for the 3rd time.

same old same old games on sale

Thanks for the information. Then I'll wait for another pricedrop or glitch

i did not realize battlefront 2 was on steam
i want

I'm still waiting for Sid Meier's Pirates to hit 75% off.

Has anyone played the Age of Wonders games? I ran across them while looking at Age of Empires III although right now they are only 50% off.

Also, I read a few comments on Kohan games but wasn't sure if they were serious or not. Good games for $5.00 (Warchest package)?

Well that was weird. I bought the Hero Academy 2-pk and Steam told me I had 3 extra copies of Guns Of Icarus to give away. They're not in my inventory though—the extra HA is.

YES!

As you can probably tell from my sig, it's my all time favorite game.

I have a copy I'll sell ya for $8.00 Paypal if you're still interested - just PM me.

Everyone should play the AW games.
