Bundle Stars Trinity Bundle Has 10 Linux Games For Dirt Cheap

iO is great. I've heard KR-17 is good too, but haven't gotten around to playing it yet.

Purchased. Such bundles with Linux games are great, I miss the humble indie bundles :(

Even their store has some good offers : 85-90 % on FORCED is worth it IMO.
The only downsides of bundlestars are that it's difficult to filter games by OS, and they don't provide a DRM-free version of their games.

Great bundle i'll pick it up and also Forced to play with friends :-)

Thanks! Yes, we're aware of the issue with that. We have set up a collection page for games that are multi-platform which might help in the short-term - http://www.bundlestars.com/collections/pc-mac-linux

I'm not convinced by quite a few of these games, but you can't go wrong for 2 pounds.

That's less than the price of a coffee here in the UK.

10 games, even if you only play 10 minutes should last a long time. Some of my (subjective) views on these games:
Pixel Boy and the Ever Expanding Dungeon - don't know
Stronghold 3 Gold - not good reviews I'm afraid
Revenge of the Titans - excellent game
iO - excellent game
Nam - don't know. retro shooter, might be better off going for Duke Nukem, Blood & al...
Eradicator - don't know
Legends of Aetherus - small indie kickstarter, with bad reviews, describing game as bland. Might still be good to fire it up to experience the steampunk setting.
Sentinel - innnovative tower defense game using audio, has rave reviews.
Terrian Saga: KR-17 - excellent game
Shiny The Firefly - very good game

Basically, at least 4 of these games would be worth AT LEAST £2 pounds on their own, so you are getting a good deal.

Though most probably don't care it's worth mentioning that you do not get the games, but only steam keys.....

I don't care, but more people than you think do care, and buy only via GOG, GreenMan Gaming, Humble Store, Publisher storefronts etc so it is worth mentioning.

Thank you for the link.
One more thing : while it's great to have platforms listed as "STEAM - WIN / MAC / LINUX" under the names, Windows is still listed in multiple places as "PC". That's not really inconvenient, just annoying.
Oh, and Linux games such as this one or that one (probably every one) need a Linux icon near the others, too :)

Thank you for supporting us, Linux gamers !

I've bought and played it. It was pretty fun, what I played of it. The bad reviews are because the game was completely abandoned by its developers a few months after its launch and there are still several bugs remaining that are game breaking for some people. It doesn't look like the devs plan on coming back as it's been almost two years of inactivity and their forums are completely dead and all the most recent posts are just spam advertisements by bots. The combat is the best part of the game and I'd kill for more games to have combat like its. I use to just keep doing the coliseum challenge for hours.

I can't speak for the other games (don't own), but...

iO - I assume this is cheap because it got swept under the radar. Great and unique physics puzzle platformer where you are a wheel. High replay if you like speed running. I also found the graphics/music quite beautiful. To me, this alone is enough to have no excuse buying the bundle.

Terrian Saga KR-17 - I have some annoyance with the mediocre shaded graphics in some places, but I got past that with the game-play. It's not amazing, but it's definitely something I would suggest checking out.

Too bad it's Stronghold 3 and not 2, but I'll probably grab it anyway =)
Also, groupees has a bundle ($4 for 3 Linux games, once Neocolonialism gets unlocked), I'll probably get that too since it's got Kill the Bad Guy which looks pretty fun =)
