So I have enough free steam cash to buy one more super cheap game. Which of these 3 do I pick up?

Marlow Briggs
Daikatana

I had no interest in these games prior to the sale so the fact that they are all very different doesn't matter to me.

Marlow Briggs. Most definitely.

The site is down from people exploiting, you probably won't get anything. :(

Yeah, according to reddit someone was generating cards numbers, and many people were winning cards that had already been claimed by hackers (or scammers, whatever you want to call them. My first card I won was already used :-(

Can anyone explain me how 8000 summer getaway cards are still being sold everyday? I made a good inventory of them thinking of selling later, but seems like this strategy backfired big time :(

Listen to this man and enter this giveaway, the game is terribly good fun and full of hats. Wonderful hats. Also some cats. Though no rats.



The only good Daikatana is the GBA Daikatana.

I've played some battleblock, beat the first world, and the encore levels.. unlocked some special characters but no hats... and I spent coins to get characters and you can sell them on the market place? but when you look at their inventory it doesnt even give you any market data other than just 'sell' and um... wat?

Everyone's going to tell you to buy Marlow, and it's probably pretty good, but I'm going to be the dissenting voice and say Kairo. It's really a great, atmospheric puzzle game. I really enjoy it.

Kairo is alright, some of the puzzle solutions were a bit too obscure for me, though there were some good ones in there too. If you're stuck on the obscure ones, it has a built in hint system with three levels from subtle hints to point you in the right direction to straight up answers. As a walking simulator, there's not much. The abstract world design isn't awe inspiring but it's not overbearing either. It's not complex either so it's not the kind of game where you don't know where to go next because you're lost. I did find the performance to be kinda bad for what was going on unfortunately. For $1.50 I'd say it's worth it.

Always sell cards ASAP. They always, always, ALWAYS, drop by the end of the sale.

If you are one of us (meaning you have Bad Rats in your inventory) shows you that you shouldnt play everything you have. Just the games you enjoy.

Even a mediocre purchase isnt worth playing for 30 minutes.

Nah no Bad Rats here. Since I've joined I've only been in one give away if that, but that is definitely the positive to a big backlog. I only play what I enjoy, and I can bench what I don't.

dont worry about me, worry about Mokoi, NBNT, corrosivefrost, dusk golem, and whoever else im forgetting

You, my man, should tidy up your motherfucking wishlist because you know what are we supposed to gift you in that ocean of random games?

You have time until Autumn Sale, if needed the deadline will be extended to Holiday Sale.
And please remind me I wrote this post because I'm gonna forget about it in the next couple of hours top.

you realise you can click rank / name / price on wishlists right Copons? lol

My wishlist is tidy as shit, the expensive shit is on top of the rank in case the sale metas gives out games (like this one), rest doesnt matter since I view by name most of the time anyway
