Hello!
Are they any good, do they have an interesting story or anything?
Quoting: buenaventuraAre they any good, do they have an interesting story or anything?Simple answer is yes, they are very good, the artwork in all of them is brilliant, the storylines are interesting, I have 39 of the 61 games available on Steam & plan to get the rest at some point.
Across the games you'll find Ghosts, Zombies, Vampires, Werewolves, Curses, Magic, Murders, Kidnappings, Blackmail, Airships, Robots, Gods, Demons & lots & lots of puzzles.

Cool, I might check them out! I have not played much of that kind of game, but it might be time I guess! Thanks for the thoughts.
I also picked Tropico 5 Complete up for 7,77€ at gamesplanet.fr.

Storylines in the AF games tend to be a bit melodramatic, but to the point of being charming rather than repelling. Don't look for anything too advanced there, but do look for enjoyable puzzles and fantastic art, with a bit of variety in style from title to title.
Quoting: joaojottaHum... that Grid Autosport doesn’t show up with that discount for me. ):Seems it must have ended early. Switched it to a different one.
Quoting: PatolaThere's also the Fanatical Killer Bundle with 4 linux games, including Tölva, for only US$ 4.99.And, according to the site, the Linux requirement seems are actually quite modest:
“Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system”
That’s it! No i5 or fancy RAM. Nop. Just a processor and OS as long as they’re 64 bit.
ahahahahah
Now for real: thanks for the tip!

Looks like The Swindle actually has a Linux build too. Not tried it to see if it works yet though.
