The Humble Conquer COVID-19 Bundle has arrived to help in the fight, with tons of games (and lots for Linux) and 100% of the proceeds of this will go to charity. It's a special one-week bundle, with a minimum purchase price of £25 / $30 that includes Linux supported titles like:
- Undertale
- Hollow Knight
- Wizard of Legend
- SUPERHOT
- Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered
- This is the Police
- The Jackbox Party Pack 2
- Party Hard
- Europa Universalis IV
- Psychonauts
- Broken Age
And the list goes on, plus there's also some ebooks. If you're new, the bundle will even give you one free month of Humble Choice. Something I will note as well, is that it includes Into The Breach from the creators of FTL, which is confirmed to be coming to Linux and it appears that's coming sometime soon too with hints of it appearing on SteamDB recently.
As a Humble Partner, we here at GOL get nothing from this one with 100% of the proceeds from purchases going to support organizations responding to COVID-19 and we're proud to be a part of this. Charities include Direct Relief, International Rescue Committee, Doctors Without Borders and Partners In Health.

Quoting: sprocketIts a shame that so many of these games are locked behind Steam, with no DRM-free options.
I feel pity for the anti-drm people, instead of focusing on these developers giving their games for nothing so everything goes to the charity, they just focus on their personal taste about how games are distributed and managed.
You arent some sort of "freedom fighters" as you see yourself, but just a vocal minority of people looking just for their own good...
The world is facing something really big right now, your priorities is to have a copy of a game in your hard disk.

It is more important than ever that we resist vendor lock-in and DRM, and fight the good fight in favor of consumer rights, pandemic or no.

(Seriously: I consider this "games have to be DRM free" standpoint expressed by quotes like "fighting the good fight" just childish. We are talking about games - not the cure for cancer. Besides: There are plenty of DRM free games - even in this bundle.)
