The website sells game collections at a price that the purchaser gets to choose, with higher payment tiers leading to more games. The total income from the bundles is then split between the game developers and apartnered charity.

Most of the games in this bundle are indie games andTelltale Games, the latter being a popular developer famous for its twisty narratives and gritty storytelling.

The $8 or more tier unlocks the second season ofThe Walking Dead, Batman: The Enemy Within Shadows Mode, The Walking Dead: Michonne,andThe Wolf Among Us.That last game is getting a sequel sometime in the future, so playing the first game now will help prepare fans for the highly anticipatedThe Wolf Among Us 2.
Moving up to the $15 or more tier unlocksBatman: The Telltale Series,and bothThe Walking Dead: The Final SeasonandA New Frontier.The whole Summer Adventure Games Bundle is advertising as having a $174 value, with over 30,000 bundles having been sold at the time of this article. While these aren’t quite as mind-blowing numbers as theRacial Justice Bundle’s $1,200 worth of games for $30, customers are obviously getting more than their money’s worth with this bundle.
Not only does Humble Bundle offer great deals, but it helps players donate to great causes. Besides the Racial Justice Bundle donating to help racial minorities facing injustice, theConquer COVID-19 bundlehelped raise money for healthcare during the pandemic. JDRF’s raises money to fund research on type 1 diabetes, advocating for policy reform, and giving support to those who suffer from the disease.
The original Telltale Games filed for bankruptcy after biting off more than it could chew with too many franchises, and the current reincarnation and publisher that calls itselfTelltale Games is actually LCG Entertainment. Despite the original company’s flaws and financial troubles, most of the games it developed are critically acclaimed and loved by fans. While the status of Telltale’s next project,The Wolf is Among Us 2, is still not entirely clear, this Humble Bundle is a great opportunity for fans to get their hands on some great games for a low price and great cause.
