A Zachtronics game a month keeps, well, who exactly away?
Paused my subscription. Picked up the three games I wanted for $3 from a kind stranger. Great month!
(But yeah, not a strong selection this month. Even with a plan to trade my extras it didn't look worth it for me.)

Even though I feel like it doesn't have a game that stands above all others...the average quality seems pretty good :)
I didn't own any of them and I had many on my second-tier wishlist :)
Overall an amazing deal for 12 bucks, at least for me :3

It's not that hard a choice. If you really want those games and don't care about anything else, just check ITAD and see how low these go on sale. If the price is higher than Choice and you want them now, just get it.
Right now these three go for about 30 bucks combined on sale. That's Historical Low but the prices will most likely go down
If you have a huge backlog and you'd rather wait, just hit the pause button but all in all if you want them, that's not a bad deal

Wanted "My Friend Pedro" and "Battle Chasers" for quite a while, so will pick it up for those.
If it didn't have those two game though it'd be a definite skip.

Paused, not even worth the $2 offer to unlock just for Pedro.

TL;DR: When or why is Humble not warning me of country/region redemption issues for gift links?
Region FYIs:
Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark may not be available in these countries:
Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Brazil, China, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan
If Humble even allows redemption from these countries, it may be region locked per SubId 353203.
I redeemed the key from the US and got ROW (SubID 201144).
Planet Coaster gift link didn't give me a warning when generating from US, so I presume that's ROW gift link redemption despite two region-exclusive SubIDs? I definitely got a ROW key from the gift link: (SubID 137056)
Planet Coaster DLC has far more region-exclusive SubIDs, but I got ROW key (SubID 310960). No gift link option for DLC.
Even F1 2019 with over a dozen country-exclusive subs didn't give me a warning when generating a gift link! It gave me a ROW key for F1 2019 Anniversary Edition (SubID 300421)

What you see on steamlocked are possible locks, but not necessarily regions for which Humble Bundle agrees together with the publisher to send locked keys to.
In other words, if a region locked sub exists for a game, this doesn't mean that Humble Bundle MUST give region locked keys for that region. They might decide to give ROW games to everyone, like it's the case with this bundle for the titles you mentioned.
Humble knows that their keys are ROW, therefore mentioning possible locks is futile.

It seemed that 9 times out of 10 when region locked subs exist for a game that Humble bundles, they would warn me about region restrictions on gift links even if they give a ROW key.
So its just surprising to me that for once, Humble seems much more lenient (or consistent?) for most of a bundle by giving out ROW keys & gift links and thus not warning about regions despite region restricted subs for those games.

No, the rule is pretty much as follows:
More than that, as an example: even if locked subs exist for region A, B, C (3 subs), they can decide to give locked keys to A and B and ROW to C. In this situation they usually list A and B countries in the notification, but it happened enough times that they also listed C, even if C received ROW.
And this is why the feedback received through the posts other SG members is so valuable: identifying region locks CANNOT be done only by checking Steamlocked / Steamdb and triangulating that with what Humble claims to give. In order to list the correct setup we need people from regions with assumed locked keys to confirm what they get.

Not my style at all.. + already played 'My friend Pedro' (decent & quality, but I don't miss it in my library).
But I want Etherborn and may be will try EXAPUNKS (Opus Magnum was brilliant and I should try all Zachtronics games, I guess);
other games will be good for GAs for sure

I'm the only one who was excited by Etherborne and 198X. Battle Chasers, too, was on my ML. Dropped F1 and Turok.

Are you on Premium or Classic? Premium is 9 and Classic is 10.
Comment has been collapsed.
Only 198X would be a "yes!" and Death's Gambit at least a maybe. The rest is a "nope" for me so I'll skip again.
