Gold-Plated Games

Our recommended list for the Weeklong Deals is a bit thin, but that doesn’t mean there’s no gold to find! Several of our picks, like Horizon’s Gate and DemonCrawl, are personal favorites that will keep you busy for dozens of hours. Beyond our own suggestions, there are some popular indies on sale like ELEX, Dominions, and Beholder to check out. Oh, and the Gothic/Risen series is discounted for your eurojank RPG needs!

I’m not sure what we’ll get up to with reviews this week, but our streams are off to a great start if you can make it! Last night we started Horizon: Zero Dawn for our 2-year channel anniversary, and we’ll be doing another special stream on Wednesday with Invisible, Inc. Our wonderful community has made our Twitch channel one of the best places to hang out on the whole internet, so stop by and celebrate with us if you get the chance!
