Last week the multi-platform Humble Bundle launched, giving gamers a great opportunity to expand their game collection whilst directly rewarding the game’s developers and their chosen charities. All games included in the bundle are available to download for Android, PC, Mac and Linux.
Initially the bundle included the fantastic Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP, Eufloria, Splice, Crayon Physics Deluxe and graduate of Steam Greenlight, Waking Mars, along with their soundtracks. Those who paid more than the average also grabbed Machinarium.
So far so good, but the folks who put the bundle together haven’t stopped there and have added even more titles to the bundle for those that pay over the average, which is currently a rather measly £4. All this means you can now grab eleven fantastic DRM-free titles for your PC, Mac, Linux or Android device direct from the Humble Bundle site.
Swords & Soldiers HD
Swords & Soldiers HD is a vibrant, side-scrolling strategy game. Players must spawn the right units to gather resources and overrun the opponent’s base. Three diverse factions, multiplayer, and challenge modes provide gobs of colourful gameplay.
Cogs
Cogs is a much-lauded 3D puzzle game that gives the player mechanical structures that need to be fixed in order to function properly. The puzzles involve creating the right arrangement of gears, pipes, and other Victorian-esque technologies in order to strike bells, turn propellers, and channel steam.
Canabalt
Canabalt is an indie parkour platformer by Adam Saltsman. It involves running through a city during an alien invasion and jumping from rooftop-to-rooftop.
Avadon: The Black Fortress
Avadon: The Black Fortress is the RPG fantasy saga from Jeff Vogel’s Spiderweb Software, an indie studio well-known for sprawling experiences and intricate plots. It layers on the best of classic RPG elements to create a true epic: four classes, hundreds of items, dozens of spells and abilities, secret quests, and multiple endings.
Zen Bound 2
Zen Bound 2Â is a ground-breaking, meditative puzzler that defies convention. Players are given a wooden figurine, which must be wrapped in twine through a process of creative rotation. The twine triggers splashes of paint that cover the ornament, and players are loosely rewarded for using as little twine as possible to cover the object.

Pretty much a no brainer if you own any of PC, Mac, Linux or Android especially Android

I’d rather just pay 1p and get the initial 4.
But maybe i’m just an arsehole.
yogdog
Crikey, you can’t be bothered to pay just £4 for ALL of them?! I’d pay that for Eufloria alone!
Carl
I could be bothered, but 1p for 4 games is a better deal than £4 for all of them :P
david24
yes your an arsehole. it cost them 2.5p to complete the transaction so at least pay that.

If you’ve already bought the bundle the new games are available for you to download whether you paid above the average or not. Working on my PC and Android. Cogs is brilliant and Avadon looks like it’s good from what I’ve played so (won’t work on my Desire HD though, but seems more suited to PC. Can’t wait for more of these bundles!

EDIT: Avadon looks like it’s good from what I’ve played so FAR

Sold! Bought the pack with the extra games. So far Zen Bound 2 and Crayon Physics Deluxe have taken most of my time on my tablet.
