The Indie Game Bundle Update & Discussion Thread

What is this thread?

A place to keep track of and discuss all the upcoming and currently running Indie Game bundles. They seem to be popping up like crazy with all the success of the past bundles. This thread is to keep it all organized into one place.

What is an Indie Game Bundle?

A collection of games (and sometimes music and other items like t-shirts) put out by the Indie Game Industry into a limited time offer for purchase at a greatly reduced price. All bundles are there to support the developers of these games, but also in most cases charity as well. These games are great for casual gamers and hardcore gamers alike. All bundles are digital and do not include disc versions of the games.

What platforms are supported?

This varies by bundle, but all games are designed for the PC (Windows) in some form (they might require a specific client like Steam, Desura, and/or be direct download). Other platforms often supported are Mac, Linux, and Android Phones.

What about the price?

All bundles are valued well below the regular price of all the games in the bundle combined. Most bundles let you set your own price (sometimes with a minimum price, sometimes not) and there are often bonuses for paying above the average price.

*Important to note*: Prices are in US dollars for the most part and there is no tax. I have personally ordered in the past from these sites without issue.

Your welcome :-)

I'm really into collecting these bundles myself and was hoping there was some interest out there from the community here.

Thread update: Indie Fort Bundle has gone live, Groupees 2 pre-order available, Indie Gala bonus games added.

Thread updated: Groupees bundle is now live! I really like this bundle, money from the bundles bought go to feed the hungry. The more meals bought the more bonuses unlock as well.

Humble Indie Bundle for Android #2 has ended.

Thanks! I didn't realize there was a new Groupee bundle, and that Buskers bundle looks really interesting. I have a bad habit of buying all of these even when the games look terrible, just to show the devs that it's still worth making Indie games.

Indie Buskers is for sale now as voting is over. Indiegala and Indiefort bundles are over.

Update: Indie Royale Spring Bundle is live + bonus game Bridge It! added to all Indie Face Kick bundles.

Update: The Humble Botanicula Debut is live.

Update: Indie Gala IV is live.

Update: Indie Games Bundle added, expired bundles remove (groupees, etc.).
