Gazoinks: I do like both, so I'll plan on grabbing it. :)
I envy you, have fun! :)
Awesome, I don't have any of those. Thank god I still have a little money left, I wouldn't be able to forgive myself for missing out on these games again.
This will go some way to making me feel better about not buying the Xmas Indie Royale with the Blackwell games. Only an idiot would pass up a deal like that, and I passed it up. I kick myself every time I think about it.
The bundle is live now, just bought it.
Doesn't seem to be working for me.

EDIT: There it goes. The bundle is mine!

Dammit, why couldn't they have leaked that The Shivah would have been in there? That was the only reason for me getting the last Indie Royale!

Now I have to decide whether 1893 and TSWCLE are worth the asking price by themselves. Maybe I'll play the first couple Lands of Dream titles first.

Edit: Btw, Metal Dead is awesome - it's right up there with BTDT/TGP.

Ayep, there we go. Thanks. :)

Which game was the one made for the bundle, does anyone know? And also is it worth beating the average? I heard The Shivah is really short and I've never heard of Metal Dead Before. Here's hoping we unlock the soundtracks though. :)
I recently played "The Shivah" (from the Indie Royale bundle) and while its graphics are really really (really!!!) super-retro, the story itself, the type of the puzzles and the whole atmosphere convinced me. Yes, the game is short, maybe 2hrs, if you know how to solve the puzzles probably even shorter, but compare the price with going to the cinema.

But I would also like to have some more information/experiences about metal dead as well.... I am not too much into metal (music), so could I still like it?

If you can enjoy The Shivah without being a rabbi, you can enjoy Metal Dead without being a metalhead.

That game really is very good and very funny. It is similar in style to Ben There, Dan That and Time Gentlemen Please, though not quite as crazy.
I'm not sure whether I'm going to beat the average. I watched the beginning of Metal Dead and it really didn't interest me at all. The Shivah looks good, but I'll already have Gemini Rue to play as far as Wadjet games go, so I think i'd rather just wait and pick it up sometime later.

Can anyone who's bought the bundle comment on The Sea Will Claim Everything? The description is vague and there's no video, it's like a first-person colorful Myst-esque game?

Gemini Rue was only published (and maybe polished) by Wadjet Eye. The Shivah was full on developed by them.

Huh, I didn't know that.

Yes, Wadjet Eye has slowly become a publisher it seems. Resonance is another example.

The Shivah and The Blackwell series are the games they developed themselves.
