The true madness here is...
Someday, maybe someday, I will see one of these Mystery bundle threads and NOT automatically assume that it refers to a bundle of detective games... :P

i would call the humble choice a better deal...

we could have real bundles, but people keep buying this garbage, so they keep selling it!
Comment has been collapsed.
As long as there's people buying these, fanatical will keep doing them.
unfortunately.
Comment has been collapsed.
Isnt it the opposite? People not buying enough bundles and deals as the dev keys provided, is why they grab all those unsold games and resell them again by removing the "label from the tapes"
Comment has been collapsed.
even if we buy more bundles, they simply would make contracts for higher amountswith probably even more left over keys to sell them in a mystery bundle...
Comment has been collapsed.
Keys may not necessarily come from bundles, but yes, I think it's a bit of both. Extra keys + people buying into these kind of bundles make them stay for far too long.
Mystery bundles are strictly worse than regular gambling. At least with gambling if you are lucky you get money to spend how you want. With mystery bundles even if you are lucky and get an AAA game, you might end up with a game you already have OR don't like. I don't really see a good reason for buying these bundles consistently.

Ooo just another Scamstery bundle agin.
I would like to say ever smth like: yay mystery bundle, we can get nice games! / Instead of: oh another pack of shiet that totally not worth single cent :]
Comment has been collapsed.
Okay. 2 bundles, spin to win bonus: 15% discount voucher - kinda bleah, but whatever.
Bundle 1:
1) Mahjong - Decent game, has trading cards too, 6/10
2) Darkness Within 2: The Dark Lineage - Indie horror game, uhm.. I'll probably never touch it. 4/10
3) Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered - Nice. I actually wanted this game and it has trading cards as well. 7/10
4) Hidden Object Bundle 4 in 1 - Yeah.. idk. 4 games in 1 so I guess it's worth..? Nah 4/10
5) Overlord: Ultimate Evil Collection - Another bundle of games. 3 if I am not mistaken. And they're fun games too, with cards. Sadly, I already owned the collection. Still, decent pull 7/10
6) Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair - i already had this one, or so I thought? I have two "Yooka-Layle" games in my library, but this one is new. How many of them are there? Lol.. It has cards. 6/10
7) Geometry Wars 3 Dimensions Evolved Mystery - The game has good reviews and it's priced at 15$, but is it my type of game? Nope. 5/10
8) Sacra Terra: Angelic Night CE - Ughh.. 3$ hidden object game. FML. 3/10
9) GRID Ultimate Edition - Finally, a good game. And yes, I know it had been bundled before, but I didn't had it. So it's a win for me. 8/10
10) Airport Madness: World Edition - Might actually give it a try. Has cards. 6/10
Overall, the first bundle sucked. I didn't expect much and I was still dissapointed. I hope the second one has something good in it...
Bundle 2:
1) Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered - It's okay, it's okay... I expected a duplicate... Let's move on.
2) TT Isle of Man - Yeah.... 40$ game, good reviews and has cards as well. The problem tho is that I already own TT 2, and I don't even like bikes tbh. Guess it's a 6/10 pull for me.
3) Time Recoil - rolls eyes it's a good game... I guess. It has cards. 5/10
4) Pro Cycling Manager 2019 - Another 40$ bike game I am not interested in. This one doesn't even have cards :S... It's a 5/10 for me.
5) City Siege: Faction Island - 3$, 50mb game with no cards. At least it looks cute. 5/10
6) Barrow Hill: Curse of the Ancient Circle - PLS. 3/10
7) Men of War: Vietnam Special Edition - Well.. now I own 3 Men of War games. Cool. 6/10
8) Mafia III: Definitive Edition - YES! Finally a nice AAA game. Excited about it and it kinda saved the bundle tbh. 9/10.
9) OUT OF THE BOX - Nice game, Has cards and looks fun. Sadly. I already had it from another bundle. 5/10.
10) Outcast - Second Contact - Same stuff. Already had it, but decent pull I guess. 6/10
Okay, so the second bundle was clearly superior to the first. Was it worth it tho? I guess so. Mafia III is nice,and there are other games in there that I wanted, so for me it was worth.
Peace.
Edit: Ok. I'm retarded. I went for 2 more. YOLO.
Bonus spin: I won 1$ to spend in the store! WOAHH.
Bundle 3:
1) Peekaboo: Prop Hunt - Not a bad start. Looks fun.Has cards too. 6/10
2) To Ash - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Not an RPGMAKER game PLSS GOD. 1.50$ and it doesn't even have cards. 1/10
3) V-Rally 4 - Already owned. Good giveaway game tho. 7/10
4) GRID Ultimate Edition - Damn.. Good pull. but already owned now :'(... 7/10
5) Double Dragon IV - Lel. Ok, sure. 4/10
6) Headsnatchers - 13$ game. Looks fun. Fall Guys wannabe type of game? Has cards. Love the name. 7/10
7) Battle Fantasia -Revised Edition- - An 2D RPG fighting game? OK. It has cards. 5/10
8) Overlord: Ultimate Evil Collection - Yeah.... 5/10 now.
9) The Last Crown: Midnight Horror - >.> 2/10
10) Hidden Object 6-in-1 bundle - These games man... 3/10
Okay. Bundle 3 was definetely not worth for me since I already had 3 games, and 4 others were shit.
Please save me Bundle 4:
1) SPACECOM - Not the best start. But at least I didn't had it. And it has cards. 4/10
2) Sparkle 2 - Zuma copy/paste. Has cards. 5/10
3) Hidden Object 6-in-1 bundle - FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU 1/10
4) Men of War: Assault Squad 2 - Cool. Now I own 4 Men of War games. 6/10
5) Battle Fantasia -Revised Edition- - Only Resident Evil Village can save this bundle.. 3/10
6) Toybox Turbos - Another game I had.. 4/10
7) NecroVision - And YET ANOTHER one I already had - 5/10
8) 3DRPG - Please kill me. 1/10
9) Space Rangers HD: A War Apart - It's not even fun anymore :c 4/10
10) Next Up Hero - sighs 6/10
So yeah kids. The lesson for today: Don't do mystery bundles.

Mafia 3 is for sure not bad but that also got sold very cheap already so over all i would not even say that the second one was good it was however fair but that was only cause u were lucky with it. Most people just get ripped off by this
Comment has been collapsed.
Why not YOLO some good games off the shop instead of YOLOing more mystery junk? You ended up spending $28. That's quite a few good games you could buy.
Comment has been collapsed.
Barrow Hill: Curse of the Ancient Circle and The Last Crown: Midnight Horror are actually good spooky adventure games. Not your taste - I understand, but will be a nice gift for fans of this genre :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I had never heard of those two games, but they look interesting indeed. Although I think I would perhaps enjoy The Last Crown: Midnight Horror more. I actually have "The Lost Crown" (still haven't played) and Midnight Horror is apparently a sequel... Eh, I guess I'll move The Lost Crown to my list of soon-to-be-played games. Anyway, thanks, I'll keep an eye on both games you mentioned. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Glad it was interesting to someone ... these games are part of series made by Jonathan Boakes, which is the author of another similar series Dark Fall and recently released new part Dark Fall: Ghost Vigil, which I can recommend as well. Sometimes knowing the author and game's background helps to find something interesting in our huge backlogs haha.
Comment has been collapsed.
Dark Fall: Ghost Vigil is going straight to my wishlist. It reminded me of Phasmophobia, not a point & clicky, but still a ghost hunting game too. I love Phasmo. ^^ Whelp, my backlog might get bigger because of you... That Dark Fall trilogy seems to be up my alley too. Have you played the two older games? Sometimes, old point & clicky are really clunky and that can be quite frustrating for me.

While I do like the personal touch that you gave each game, it would help me if you could additionally provide a list of titles without comments (links also not needed), in case you purchase such a Mystery bundle in the future.
It's difficult enough to go through dozens of comments and update the chart dozens of times, and copying the titles one by one from a block of text unnecessarily overcomplicates things for me and ultimately just takes even more time.

The true madness here is buying the same bundles over and over again and expecting different results.

Just a warning, if you get Pit Blocks 3D the key will most likely be a dupe as the devs have revoked all keys after increasing the price on steam. If you write a ticket to Fanatical they will replace it with a different game from the pool.

Hot Take: Sometimes these mystery bundles actually aren't that bad. and there's some pretty good ones in there. And sometimes they just straight up suck, like this one.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah I enjoy finding good games that I've never heard of, and then the challenge of trying to trade the rest away for stuff I'm interested in. But this mystery bundle in particular looks to really have nothing worthwhile at all.
Comment has been collapsed.
Lol I don't even bother with that, I just give away the stuff I don't want to friends and then the remainders to SteamGifts.
Also +1, deffo nothing good in this one.

Oh joy, another Lootbox Bundle.
You're better off spending that 8.50€ on an actual single game. Especially if you have more than 1000 games in your library.

Bundle 3 looks like an Indiegala bundle. Pretty shameful for $.70 a game.
Bundle 4 is very good. It looks like Mafia 3 alone sells for more than I paid, and there are multiple AAA type games.
Bundle 5 is alright.
Lots of dupes, although I did buy 50 games. This could be a good bundle, but I think including garbage like "Koala Kids" makes the risk a very meh one to take.

At first I was reluctant to buy, but to get a spin after purchasing RE1 and today's bundle, I went for 3:
- Sid Meier's Civilization®: Beyond Earth™
- Dead Island Definitive Collection
- Darkness Within 1: In Pursuit of Loath Nolder
I think it's not bad. It would have been better if last month I hadn't spent € 6.79 on Dead Island DE
