@hungrier one of the best. If only there were ten more like it, cos I've already played that one past replayability.
-
@hungrier I didn't read the bit about it being next week.

I've played about an hour into it, seems pretty good.

@hungrier I came here to post this, nice one man

Two Point Hospital can be played for free over this weekend.
I'm enjoying watching my girlfriend play the game.
It's a pretty good clone of Theme Hospital (apparently some of the people who worked on Theme Hospital also worked on this), the production value is quite high.
I think I'll buy it for her, since it's also at 50% off, even though some reviews say it's not very challenging and it gets repetitive.
-
@Zecc I bought Two Point Hospital when it came out - it's definintely worth it.
-
Um... I think I'll pass this one. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

-
@Mason_Wheeler It's one of the (user-defined) tags in the Steam listing.
-
@Zecc ÂŁ421.99
-
@loopback0 A professional training course with game-like elements, rewards, whatever. Sure, why not? Distributed through Steam?
-
@hungrier Oh, you're right. I missed that.
-
-
@hungrier that's like $4.99 USD

@loopback0 Let's cut this off short before someone wants to check the length of their dong:

The free games over on the Epic Store this week are na na na na na na na na BATMAN!
https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/bundles/batman-arkham-collection
https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/bundles/lego-batman-trilogy
If you don't have them, get these games. The Arkham games are among my all-time favorites, while the LEGO games are good for all ages and especially fun to play co-op.

Enter the Gungeon is half price on Steam. I've heard it's pretty good

I'm grateful they give the option (and by default it's unchecked), but... what is the benefit of doing this?

You might like the developer and/or publisher enough to get
spamupdates from them?I've never left this in the state where they send me email. (It changed from opt-out to opt-in very early on.)

Fine. I bit and created an account. Do I have to install their launcher to get the game? Is there no other way?

I assume so; up until now I'd never logged in to the website directly, but poking around it doesn't look like you can download the games separately.

More Tomb Raiders than you care about.

29 of 56 items from this bundle are already in your library.
Nice prices on Shadow and Rise (outside of the bundle) so might buy those on payday.

Great! Since my CD copies are probably bit-rotted away...

Damn, I've left this on an open tab to remember to follow through on my other computer, but I promptly forgot about it.
Now I'd have to pay âŹ8.99 to add it to my library and not play it.

Crypt of the Necrodancer on Switch
is discounted by a lot, at least in Canadiaappears to be regular price now; it was $5 yesterday when I got itis maybe still on salee: Maybe the web version of the store doesn't show it, or it shows up as regular price since I've already bought it or something. But on the actual Switch store it shows up in the sales section, along with Bastion and Transistor. Anyway it's good.

A bunch of old DOS games got added to the internet archive
A cursory scan shows that One Must Fall 2097 is not among them, so you might not even want to bother
e: The website also uses that horrible Pinterest layout to list items:

@Zecc There are some other OMF easter eggs in that game as well.

If you don't already have Kerbal Space Program, it's half price at Chrono.gg for the next 23 hours and whatever minutes.
-

Snagged. It's actually 75% off Steam price of $40 USD.
Also, when initiating the download for kicks and giggles I noticed...
I'm 93 percent sure I don't own DOTA....
Edit: Huh, apparently I do? Since June 20th, if these file timestamps are anything to go by....

Thanks for auto-queuing that into my internal playlist. I'm just going to have to go where the streets have no name...
