Indie Zoe: Raider of the Lost News (26 June 2014)

Cartoon indie zoe

It’s that time again – time for all your indie gaming news that might have fallen through the cracks. However, this time, in honor of the Steam Sale underway, I’m going to highlight some games that might have fallen through the Sale cracks instead.

Under $5

For those who don’t like to spend money (which I’m assuming is everyone), there are some excellent games currently available for less than $5. A bunch of them have been part of flash sales, but really, if you don’t already won these games you should pick them up for a bargain:

  • Gone Home = $2.99
  • Brothers: A tale of two sons = $2.99
  • Castle Crashers = $3.74
  • Kingdom Rush = $4.99
  • Terraria = $3.99
  • Risk of Rain = $4.99
  • Papers, Please = $4.99
  • Hotline Miami = $3.99
  • World of Goo = $4.99
  • Limbo = $4.99
  • To The Moon = $2.99
  • Fez = $4.99
  • Monaco = $4.94
  • One Finger Death Punch = $2.49
  • The Impossible Game = $2.99

Over $5

Of course, not all fantastic games can come for such a ridiculously low price, so here are some other games you might want to pick up that are featuring nice price reductions.

  • The Banner Saga = $12.49
  • Kerbal Space Program = $16.19
  • Blackguards = $13.59
  • King Arthur’s Gold = $7.49
  • Goat Simulator = $7.99
  • FTL: Faster Than Light = $6.99
  • Bastion = $8.99
  • Plague Inc: Evolved = $13.49
  • Prison Architect = $14.99
  • Transistor = $17.99
  • The Stanley Parable = $10.04
  • Desktop Dungeons = $11.24
  • Nidhogg = $8.99
  • Broforce = $11.99
  • Don’t Starve = $8.99
  • Skullgirls = $7.49
  • Octodad: Dadliest Catch = $8.99
  • Democracy 3 = $16.74

My biggest recommendation would be for Democracy 3. If you like using policies to change you country, seemingly complex gameplay that becomes second nature, and getting assassinated by dirty hippies there can be no better game. Plus it’s turn based and has all kinds of little bits of humour built into the game. I poured far too many hours into this game over the weekend, and I don’t regret a second of it.

What awesome indie titles have you picked up during this ridiculous binge that we call the Steam Sale?

    I have bought 1 game over the entire sale.
    And so far it has not been worth it, but I have hope, hope that Microsoft’s services aren’t as shitity as I fear.

          Can’t you play it in offline mode without logging into live though?

          Sorry, I didn’t realize the summer sale was excluded from the ‘need to clear backlog before I buy’ you’ve said on so many occasions.

            All I’ve said was I’m working on my backlog & buying less games. You never listen to me! *sob*

            Green Team has silly dunce cap shaped heads! And Pink Team are blockheads. Only RED TEAM has proper round heads. Like Our Lord GabeN intended.

            But Green Team is the colour of nature.
            There is green in everything.
            Just look around you and you will see green.

            You should have that head injury looked at by a doctor before the blood loss gets to you.
