Humble’s latest games bundle is a trip through CRPG history
Estimated reading time: 2 minutes
You won’t find a better opportunity to experience some of the best CRPGs ever developed than the RPG Masters Humble Bundle. Right now, you can pick up a collection of seven classic and contemporary CRPGs, along with a fat stack of add-ons, for just $35 at Humble. This bundle features some true legends from the genre, including Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition, Baldur’s Gate: Deluxe Edition, Baldur’s Gate 2: Enhanced Edition, and Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition, in addition to all of their associated DLC. While the aforementioned titles are definitely a bit long in the tooth, their sprite-based, isometric art styles have aged like a fine wine, and were handled by the same developers who would eventually work on games like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 and Fallout: New Vegas.
However, if you’d prefer to try some games based on the more contemporary Pathfinder system, the excellent Warhammer 40K: Rogue Trader, Pathfinder: Kingmaker Enhanced Plus Edition, and Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous are also included in this bundle.
Finally, while it isn’t a true RPG, you’ll also get an 85% off coupon to purchase the co-op roguelike MythForce from Steam, giving you the chance to add this Saturday morning-flavored hack-and-slash to your library for just $4.50.
Humble Bundle always sends a portion of each sale to benefit a nonprofit — in this case, your purchase will support the Girls Make Games Scholarship Fund, which works to create spaces for girls to explore the world of video games and close the gender gap in game development. Just remember you can always use the “Adjust Donation” drop-down menu to fine-tune how much goes to the publisher, the charity, or Humble.
