some good looking games, but to many owned to make it worth purchasing
added them to the wishlist instead

I have the better four games and some of the rest barely qualify as Metroidvania. Pass.
It also baffles how a developer for such a title thinks that they should pass on Deck support.

You made me curious on how a game with a native Linux port can be unsupported on the Deck, and it looks like nobody has bothered to test it yet. As to the why the developers haven't bothered to do it themselves, maybe they don't have access to a Deck. Or can they get that verification without needing the actual device?

Not everyone has easy access to a deck?

I think I'll skip for now. Missing 4, but I only want Islets, and kinda curious about Shantae - but haven't played the two I already own.

Islets was given away free through Epic Games about a year ago if you happen to pick those up.

Own 6 (Played 4 of them) and missing 2, including Berserk Boy which is barely a metroidvania. It's a Megaman-like arcade platformer above all else.

I can't justify spending $14 for a single wishlisted game (Biogun). While I enjoy the genre, this collection misses the mark. Too many rebundles.

Really nice. For me it's 0/4 owned. Another reason not to pick up more :P

Oh nice, Shantae is here. It was missing for a few hours when the bundle launched in EU. I wonder what happens to the people that bought the bundle without it, do they get the key or not?

I always find it interesting that they still sell a lot of bundles despite how many repeats are there. I own most of these so I'll stay away, but I don't get how they sell so many with some games having been bundled 3, 6 and 8 times. Also how grime is in t3 despite it being bundled the most out of the entire bundle with lower reviews % than anything in t1 and t2. Like what?

Very easy. Price is cheaper than historical low for one good game from it.

Only interested in Monster Sanctuary. The rest aren't bad but I either own them or don't see myself playing soon.

Just bought this bundle for whatever I missed and now I have a leftover key for Monster Santuary. Contact me on Steam if you want the key :) Was going to create a giveaway for this key anyway.

Yeah, good for a sitting. I think I finished it in 3-4 hours. There's and achievement to finish within 1 hour but you'll need to get familiar enough with the game to do it. So you can probably squeeze out 10 hours on it if you are a completionist.

I'd like to giveaway Monster Sanctuary, but I can't because I don't know the regional locks and I don't want anyone to suffer the consequences... What can I do?

I already opened the link in the normal way and that 'gift to friend button' has never worked well for me...

can wait for someone from your region to report the sub it is.

There doesn't seem to be any sub specifically for the EU so your key is most likely ROW

Do you mean "WW"/"Global"? "ROW" is usually reserved for weird subs with cross-continent region locks.

Formidolosus

Yup, global. I've seen others refer to unrestricted keys as being ROW and couldn't think of a better word, but I'll try and remember to use Global in the future.

LinustheBold

Gotta disagree. On SG, at least, you're right about common usage - ROW means good world-wide without restriction, unless restrictions are mentioned. That is how it is used most often in the posts here, at least over the past years. I have never seen anyone use WW, and Global is sort of odd. It is certainly not reserved for weird subs. Checking back on Lily's many posts, you'll often see comments like "everyone else gets ROW key" and the like.

And you were right! Also, while I'm here, thanks for doing these. It's much appreciated.

Thanks a lot for that. Beserk boy doesn't have any known restricted subs, so yes probably also no locks.

They keep doing repeats with just one or two new games. :/
Only missing BioGun and Berserk Boy but can't justify the price for it.
