Weeklong Deals for 8/25/20
It’s time to build! The Weeklong Deals are loaded with Ubisoft builders, including the Anno and Settlers games. While I’ve always preferred the more futuristic Annos, I did pick up the remaster of 1404 and I intend to give that another go after thoroughly enjoying the original version. There’s a good spread of other genres offered up here as well, from pitch-black horror to happy little puzzlers. Oh, and don’t miss the Frogwares sale if you need a Sherlock Holmes fix!
OK
