Riddle: A surgeon named Hal and a bus driver named Al are both in love with the same woman named Paige. Al needs to go for a long trip of 10 days. Before he left he gave Paige 10 apples. Why?

There are lots of hints being given away at the EA chat, so it would be nice if someone looked over it ;)
Also, it's quite a nice bundle!

Definitely not faceless. If you were to look in the chat for some messages before these in the 'snippet', you'd see one of the devs confirmed his game in :D

The 'cheeki breeki' meme is related to a well-known russian survival game.. and one of the early access games in this bundle is a survival game in Russia, so yeah. :P

Ewww early access. Almost definitely will pass on this. Will see what happens once there revealed cause i've got some spare coins.

I'm OK with Early Access...for cheap bundle games. The problem with EA is when people pay full price or fund a kickstarter, and then things don't turn out the way they hoped and they feel ripped off. You can't really feel bad about a $1.25 bundle.

Same here. EA games are okay, as long as they are playeable, fun and price is in balance with the content. While the are obviously terrible finished and unfinished games, Life is Hard for 1.25 with some random stuff (that can turn out well) is a great buy for me. Though sadly, I wouldn't really buy EA games at full price.

Dead bundle site nobody's heard of? I'm putting half my chips on playblink. No idea what game it is unfortunately, but I think that site went under at least a year ago, so it's pretty old if so.

PlayBlink sounds about right. There are other dead bundle sites that "nobody's ever heard of", but none of the games featured on any of them would amount to anything.

That's great - game looked intresting but crashed on startup, and apparently abandoned. Would be pretty cheeky for the dev to push it into a bundle :D Anyways, I'm in, this one looks new and promising :)

I'm still resisting. I don't expect any of the unbundled early access games to be positively reviewed if all they're confirming are games with mixed reviews and the only confirmed game with positive reviews has been bundled before. We'll see.

It was just a guess because its early access and a groupees staff member was playing it recently.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/395150/ was hinted by the dev in groupees chat.

Really? What do you find so appealing about those mediocre unfinished uninspired survial clones?

Maybe I just don't see it, but ... I don't see it.

Dark Storm VR Missions it is a Metal Gear VR Missions clone. I can definitively make some fun of it and I think nostalgia will blur the bad part of it... Life is hard looks unique and fun enough! Survival: Postapocalypse Now is not the best survival game but I strong believe that it can deliver some fun (considering its price) and The Lost Island looks pretty promissing (it makes me think that devs still can do something because the chance of success is real)!
Somehow I strongly believe that $1.25 is a pretty good deal for all those little reasons together...

Hmm, you didn't manage to convince me, but I'm happy for ya if you're finding some enjoyment in these. I'm not the survival kind of player anyways and I still have an unactivated key for Life is Hard from another bundle lying around, so I'll definitely pass on this one.

that is a very good reason! in fact... if I had life is hard myself I'm pretty sure that I would think twice though.
but I would probably end up buying it because VR Missions... hope it is not a far guess. :P
