The Humble Bundle company is no stranger to either massive groups of PC games or charitable giving, and it’s combining its talents for a deal you don’t want to miss. The Türkiye-Syria Earthquake Relief Bundle is a package of 69 games (plus some TTRPG elements and comics) sold for a minimum of $30, 100 percent of which goes to charities directly contributing to relief for the devastating earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria last month. In addition to a great cause, it’s a great deal. Headlining PC games include Ghostrunner, Euro Truck Simulator 17, PayDay 2, Guilty Gear X2, and XCOM 2, all of which would be worth the $30 entry fee alone. There’s also Gotham Knights, the Arkham follow-up from last year that fell a little flat, but is still going for $60 on Steam. The list includes all-time classics like System Shock 2 and Worms Rumble, indie favorites like Hyper Gunsport, Stacking, and Cris Tales, and my personal action-strategy obsession, Mount & Blade: Warband (700 hours and counting). On top of all of that, you get a smattering of indie games that come from Turkish developers (including Mount & Blade), plus the core rulebook for sci-fi tabletop RPG Starfinder and the Junker’s Delight add-on. Still not enough? How about the first ten volumes of Saga, the fantasy-sci-fi graphic novel that’s won dozens of awards for its writing and art. The total retail value of the bundle is over $1000, and all of the digital codes can be redeemed on Steam. Here’s... Continue reading at 'PC World'
