Be Mine Bundle #5: $1 for 3 games, $5 for more.

It's another one of those indie bundle thingummywummits. One buck nets you X-Blades (huh?), King's Bounty, and NEO Scavenger (I think we had a thread on this one), but for five bucks you also get Tropico 3 and Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath. Groupees won my heart when they bundled Avernum 4-6 with a few Oddworld titles, and I've heard very good things from you guys about Tropico, so I plan on nabbing this bundle once I get home.

Take this as spammy advertisement or what have you, I've no association with these folks, but thought I'd give you guys a heads-up about it.

It seems like a nice deal, but X-Blade doesn't quite seem my piece of pie, and I already have King's Bounty (which is pretty good, if pretty darned difficult). The visual novels look interesting... :)

Also, NEO scavenger is a flash game... I generally get bored of those rather quick, and interfaces without right-clicking drive me nuts. Any idea?

There must be 50 of these minecraft blocks in space games by now; They keep popping up like moles in a whack-a-mole game.
I know. this, along with all the Doom-likes are getting annoying.

Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath is an awesome game,  best bounty hunter game ever made, and is worth $5 by itself.

It is a good game but the Oddbox which includes all the Oddworld games is often on sale on Steam for 3ish dollars. Might be worth waiting for a sale if you're a bit low on funds.
Tropico 3 a good game but apparently the fourth one is better in almost every aspect.
Neo Scavenger is the only game I'm really interested in mostly due to the thread on these forums about it. Might consider dropping 1 dollar for that alone.   

I'm not really big into graphic novels at all but that Wasteland sounds rather interesting. I have a weakness for the Post-Apocalyptic theme. I might wait to see if there's any decent rewards.

Just did the same thing, and it's awesome. Indeed, Giant Desert Scorpions can fire crossbows, parry blows, stab you with bolts, smash you with crossbows...

Neo Scavenger was totally worth the 1$ I paid for it.

To Quote one of my conversations:

Vellum: I am blind
Vellum: shitting myself
Vellum: and flailing with a meat cleaver
Vellum: hell yes
Vellum: this game
Vellum: so worth 1$

Neo Scavenger is some serious !!FUN!!

If not under Neotemplar look for Vellum.

Hmm.

*middle click the games while cursor is indicating they are clickable, expecting it to open a new tab about the game. Nothing happens*
*single click, resulting in a tiny tooltip with a small description*

In X-Blades, the player takes on the role of the enchanting heroine Ayumi, who survives a breathtaking dance of blades through the Hordes of Darkness. The long-haired beautiful anime--

I've seen this before! I've read this description before! (on Steam, discovering that it is a terrible game, with a terrible description, and whoever tries to get you to buy it is a terrible person).

*runs away from the terrible games*
