I'm looking for suggestions for games that can be played with only a mouse, no keyboard. For a friend coming back after an injury with limited hand use, so two fingers is the most he can do at one time for pressing down.

So far I have Lyne, Paint It Black, and Grey Cubes.

I'll go through some Adventure games later on my own just to remember what only needs a mouse, but I don't recall off the top of my head right away what used keyboard as well.

I have no idea on Hidden Objects as a genre, but I know that would work as well.

Appreciate any help.
The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, both FC and SC
And I guess all VNs

Lots of puzzle games match this criteria: The Room and The Room Two are really good and they are designed for iPad, which translates into only mouse input. The Eyes of Ara is similar (and also great), but much longer than two The Room games, and IIRC also just uses mouse input. And most minimal puzzlers can be played with a mouse alone: Hook, the 3 HexCells games (all excellent), Zenge, LYNE, KAMI, etc.

Frederic: Resurrection of Music is a rhythm-game designed for multi-finger input, but the first one is actually easier with a mouse than on keyboard (I played second one a little bit, and it kicked my ass).

You can, but for most of the game you gonna be following a straight path in the character's sphere grid, and only after you be done with it (which is around 80% of the game) you're free to explore other paths and customize said character's stats at your will. So the progression is pretty much linear.

All Final Fantasy games are linear really. FF13's linearity is a little too close to home :p
I think you can deviate from the norm in the Sphere Grid even from the first playthrough, but some research'd be needed in advance.

FF X is probably still my favorite FF game to date. XIII's up there, too. The linearity of those particular titles never really bothered me - in both stories, you're focused on reaching particular places, and that feeling of advancing along a path actually fed into the atmosphere for me. I personally love exploration in games, but not every game needs to be about that, especially when it's just a token element anyway ("you can visit town A, B, or C in any order and do sidequests there before advancing the main plot", "you can spend an hour running around a town pressing A to read canned snippets of NPC dialogue and find junk items hidden in pots", etc.)

Dishonored 2 pre-load is live. 37.9GB install/32.2GB download. I suppose the 60GB "requirement" also takes into account DLC.
 

Mifec

At some point today, yeah. The HDD space requirement is 60GB, so the pre-load will likely be 40GB+.

Edit: Speaking of pre-loads, Tyranny's is live. 12.13GB install/4.8GB download.

It's up 32.2gb DL.

edit: you're too fast for me JaseC.

in the title you put "Register giveaway"

in the body of the message you put:

"name of the game -- key to the game"

for example

2.8h? It'll get rejected unless there's some other circumstance that didn't allow you to play it.

What can I request a refund for?
Valve will, upon request via help.steampowered.com, issue a refund for any title that is requested within 14 days of purchase and has been played for less than 2 hours - this includes online, offline and shared library playtime.
Even if you fall outside of the refund rules we've described, you can submit a request and we'll take a look at it.

By the way, there were some errors processing your keys...
Note: The key you added for The Mean Greens - Plastic Warfare was already listed in ModBot from a previous giveaway of yours, but was not taken. Updating key info to match new giveaway.

Just as a heads up, the Humble Bundle key page seems to have problems checking if you own DLC. As it stands, it looks like it only checks if you own the base game.

In my case, I was told that I owned all of the bundle DLC for Killing Floor, even though I only owned the base game and some other DLC. All the bundle DLC was marked as owned, even though I didn't actually own it.

If your DLC is marked as owned, it still might be worth trying to redeem it, just in case.

For future reference, you can attach multiple keys to the one item. You just separate them with a space. E.g.:

Killing Floor + DLC: BLAH1-BLAH1-BLAH1 BLAH2-BLAH2-BLAH2 BLAH3-BLAH3-BLAH3 and so on.

why does Gothic have mostly mixed reviews lately, did they fuck something up in a patch, or did the game end up not living up to the initial hype?
