How Twisted is your purchase?

View Results
[Buy 1] Let's not Xpand our backlog too Xtreme(ly)...
[Buy 3] A spot a Trilogy of games that I need to own.
[Buy 5] I am the Looterking! Five or more!
[Have] These are good games, but sadly I already own them.
[Skip] If that's what they picked best for 2019, then I am speechless. I'll buy a Heavy Burger with my $4 instead.

I am happy to see "In Between" there so I bought that for me and 4 other games for exchange/ga (may keep Sword Legacy Omen though not decided yet). So it's a good one for me.

Fanatical CEO: "I want everyone to write down what they think are the top 10 games on our store for 2019."
Staff: "Wow it's so hard to choose, we have so many great..."
CEO: "Wait! I forgot to mention they must have all been bundled already, and nearly everyone must already own or not want them."
Staff: "..."

Ha, should have refreshed the page. This is all I want too. Might try my luck on GroupBuy if someone hosts a split.

So far (and this is a bit of a stretch) this is the best bundle for me so far in this disappointing Bundlefest. I nearly bought Alien Breed Trilogy earlier this week, so this is a better deal even if I get only one key.

From this bunch, I personally can recommend Miasmata (gureilla botany & cartography) and 911 Operator (dispatch micromanager). A okay set of games to choose from for any bundle noob.

I got all the games I want from this set over the past year, except Sword Legacy Omen and Giana Sisters Twisted DLC (in its sub/bundle). So I'll likely pass.

BTW max CV for pick 5 is $14.70 - Decent.

Thanks for the chart! This selection of games is like the mystery bundle with less mystery and less high-end games :P

BTW The price table (here and on Barter) has the wrong quantities, it should be pick 1/3/5 not 1/2/3 :)

Thanks, I was wondering how they'd get people to buy more than one game at a time :D

Eh, honestly not too bad, IMO. I picked up a few that were worth having, even if they weren't truly wishlisted.

l was interested in Sword Legacy Omen and Heroes of the Monkey Tavern once so I bought 3 games, but If these are supposed to be their picks for 2019, I don't wan't to see the stuff that didn't make their list...

If I might, I'd like to recommend getting Asura: Vengeance Expansion.
It's a damn good action-packed rogue-like with permanent progression in the form of perks and "class" unlocks. Enjoyed it a lot, myself 👍

If this is their "Best picks" then I could see why mystery bundles and their other stuff exists.
Honestly, I'd rather a 60CAD bundle where you could choose 5 high quality games from a selection where each game is either really good or really expensive, or both

I've been waiting for this bundle for a loooong time. Easily found 5 games, and it's cheaper than gambling for them or buying 3-4 bundle's random tiers for them. 7 games bundled only once, 5 only twice...

Are these really "Staff Picks" or just what's available and slapped the "Staff Picks" label? If it's the former, then Fanatical's staff have questionable tastes on games, it looks like.

just tried Asura: wonderful one. art, music, theme...
also, just discovered it comes from Hyderabad, India. a rare and beautiful game you might want to check. kind of a steal even at full price.

I guess it was gone when I checked. Link didn't work, and it didn't show up under bundles. But it works again now apparently :)

It's a repeatfest but it's a pretty nice selection. I'm getting Heavy Burger for sure, after I missed the bundle where it was originally featured, and I may give a thought to get two more games along with it.

They were definetly picking from a limited list. With that said there is still some value based on historical prices, although some games like Heavy Burger never go on a decent sale.

Game Historical Low ($US)
Sword Legacy Omen $7.38
Shoppe Keep 2 - Business and Agriculture RPG Simulation $6.69
Heavy Burger $5.99
Republique $4.99
Looterkings $4.80
Asura Vengeance Expansion $4.49
Heroes of the Monkey Tavern $3.27
Chaos Reborn $3.00
Lust for Darkness $2.99
Miasmata $2.25
Dungeon Rats $2.24
911 Operator $2.24
The Town Of Light $1.90
35MM $1.79
Alien Breed™ Trilogy $1.78
Slain Back from Hell $1.01
Giana Sisters Twisted Bundle $1.00
Call of Juarez™ $1.00
We Are the Dwarves! $0.99
In Between $0.95
Xpand Rally Xtreme $0.90
Xpand Rally $0.90
Beyond Eyes $0.80
Fantasy Versus $0.69

Personally I'm gonna pick up; Sword Legacy, Shoppe Keep 2 (niche but supposedly good), Republique, Asura, and Chaos Reborn.
