I second this. Unfortunately both are DRM'd (need Steam to run) but both games are very well worth it. I would love to have those on GOG.

Excellent games, have played the Android versions of both. I found both much better in terms of atmosphere played in a dark/dim room with headphones. (They're not horror games but I found I noticed details better that way.)

That's the way I played the series. *thumbs up*

Thanks for the heads up!! I love games with puzzles and these will be an instant buy.

I was super excited to try it, but keep having crash / no-launch problems. The latter may have been a steam problem rather than one with the game, but I'm probably not going to end up playing it much, alas.

It worked for me, but I didn't feel like playing it a lot. I was kind of bored right from the beginning. Remember PS:T starting in the Mortuary with a dialogue between the Nameless One and Morte and a very concrete situation you find yourself in. Now scratch that and imagine the Nameless One would wake up in the Sensorium at the start of the game, and instead of talking to Morte, you'd have to click on all the sensory stones first and read some rather abstract and diffuse descriptive texts about stuff you can't really see a connection with yet, before you even know what's up with you. There was nothing to draw me in right away, and I actually found the writing rather off-putting. I don't know if you've played Pillars of Eternity; if you enjoyed the monologues of Durance and Grieving Mother, you might also enjoy the writing here. Unfortunately, I found them long-winded, flowery, pretentious and boring for teh most part ...

I figured out what my steam problem was and went back and spent about 2 hours in it. Agree the narrative approach isn't quite as good as its predecessor, but for the most part I thought it was good.

At least for me the UI is what makes it feel clunkier/bumpier vs. the writing itself. The other thing that bugged me a bit was the "tides" system. Too opaque - other than the hints when booting a zone, I'm not sure where I'd have figured out what the various colors represent (and even then I think I'd only learned about half), and couldn't tell where in the UI to see what the options were much less what the implications of that were.

But on the whole, I think I'd buy/play it somewhere down the road.

I suppose I will, too, but that trial convinced me that I'm not in a hurry to do so and that I can wait for a greater discount. It's possible that to a certain degree I just wasn't in the mood for it right now and that the inconvenient date and time pressure had a negative impact on my patience, but I was disappointed that they seemed to think what made PS:T great was that you had to read a lot of obscure text, when it was actually good because it started right in the middle of things and told a good story that was gripping enough to compensate for all the reading. And the text wasn't all that obscure and flowery, at least not that I recall. In any case the story-telling seemed less well done in Tides of Numenera.

at least they put in a font size option so it wasn't eye breakingly tiny font but yeah it told me it's not my kind of thing due to too much reading but if it ends up in a $1 bundle a decade down the road I won't say no either.

Ninja'ed! :)

The only thing I don't have is Prototype 2, and it seems a waste to get a bundle for just the one game...

Otherwise, it'd be a nice bundle.

Ah, right. I forgot about the Daylight Savings.

Overall nice bundle, unless you have most of the games from it. :S
Is How to Survive 2 any good (like getting this bundle just for it) ?
