I tried my best to make a great bundle, with great titles. I consulted community people for hints and how to make bundles great.
So I'll reveal two games out of the five.
I Can't Escape Darkness and Sonya The Great Adventure.
There is a $0 tier with concept art (similar to Biller1) and a Noah T album
There is a $3 tier with Sonya: The Great Adventure + 3 other games + royalty free album
There is a $4.5 tier with I Can't Escape Darkness + $1 Golden Chatbot Coin
The top contributor prizes are Ballistic Overkill steam keys, courtesy of the fine folks at Aquiris Studios.
And a japanese box with handpicked candy by Miller.

I believe all are unbundled, but I'll double-check right now to have a definitive 100% certain say.
Maybe you can consider I Can't Escape Darkness a rebundle? As it was in a flash sale for $3.00?
Otherwise, EnhancedSteam (IsThereAnyDeal feature) shows no rebundles.

$2.75 pre-order includes all tiers.
As for the remaining games, I'll announce some hints soon.


Thanks to luckz for providing the poll answers!

I'll donate to these Vietnamese children all night! Premium premiere preorder preordered preorderishly!
Uhm, I like children, but can I have some hints first?
I'm on the fence! Someone call the fire brigade, s'il vous plaît.
Is it a bird, is it a plane, is it a BeMine? No, it's not a BeMine :(
I find this a tad expensive.
I bought post-preorder.
All the hints have been revealed, the games are known, and I'm just not gonna buy it.
I somehow managed to obtain all of these games already.
Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnope. Billerica, more like won't-get-my-money-erica.

i used the last $1 coin i had to buy the "doodle" games they have in a build a bundle at the moment. I pre-ordered this bundle because i have I can't Escape: Darkness on my steam wishlist, and this is cheaper than it's ever been on Steam.

This one sucked me in with "I Can't Escape Darkness."
Don't really care for the rest (and I doubt they'll surprise us with something amazing).

Thanks for the thread, Shakti :3

Pheew, I'm happy I didn't pre-order! Not worth the money for me (though ICE: Darkness does look rather fine, might keep an eye on future discounts):)

I feel like Groupees is just trolling those of us who bought the Be Mine package. There was a while where they weren't doing much of anything, but this is like 3 bundles in 3 weeks, without a Be Mine to be found.

EDIT: just checked on the details to see if I might be able to file a PayPal dispute. I'm not sure. I paid on March 12th, and PayPal says I have until September 8th to file a dispute. So that's fine. The problem is that what I purchased was this:

...every Be Mine Bundle to be released over the next 12 months (minimum of 10 Be Mine Bundles).

Until the 12 months elapses, I'm not so sure PayPal is going to be inclined to give a refund. I probably wouldn't, if I were them. I'd say "uh...they have 12 months to deliver the product(s) to you, sir -- why are you reporting a problem after 5-6 months?"

Of course, by the time the 12 month timeframe elapses, the dispute period will have ended. So it's an interesting situation. All I know for sure is that I am not giving Groupees any more money.

You suffer from the misconception that Groupees create this bundle, and that BeMines are a label given to a bundle much like, here, 'Billerica'.
This is a bundle made by the community curator https://www.steamgifts.com/user/MillerWar , the previous (Libredia) one was curated by https://www.steamgifts.com/user/FSession , and the other recent one was by Remute, another community curator (and musician).
They are not well-paid Groupees employees with a monthly salary and a yearly vacation. They curate bundles in their spare time, and that they do this has nothing much to do with the appearance of a future BeMine.

(It's definitely true that games acquired by such community curators can eventually end up in a BeMine. But having non-BeMine bundles isn't exactly at the expense of BeMines.)

By Groupees standards, this one isn't too shabby actually. 3+ unbundled games with > 90% ratings is a small miracle.

The original 3 confirmed games all look good and I might even play them, so I'm satisfied with my purchase. Dyna Bomb and Mars 2030 look like filler though so that's a little disappointing.

What's interesting is Dyna Bomb used to be published by OtakuMaker, but it's now self published by the dev. It's even in one of the OtakuMaker Studio packs, lol.

This is not a bad Groupees bundle, I got 4 shiny new games to play at my own leisure and I've bought an extra pre-order bundle to gift.
