See the full sale here as there's a whole lot more!
Ape Out (Deck Verified, ProtonDB Platinum) £2.74 (75% off) - A rare modern maze-chase game where a gorilla violently escapes from various tough procedurally-generated scenarios, all set to a jazz soundtrack that responds to your actions!
Mega Man 11 (Deck Verified, ProtonDB Gold) £8.24 (67% off) - The best-selling game in Capcom's classic platform-shooter series, and a good jumping-on point for newcomers, with a charming, uncomplicated story and a raft of difficulty-settings and dub/sub options.
Mutant Mudds Deluxe (Deck Playable, ProtonDB Platinum) £0.69 (90% off) - An HD version of an alien-busting 8/16-bit-style indie platformer originally released as an early downloadable title for the Nintendo 3DS, tweaked so that it's even better now than it was then. An absolute must for platformer fans.
Nippon Marathon (Deck Playable, ProtonDB Mixed due to problems in older reports) £2.99 (75% off) - An utterly insane multiplayer on-foot racing game, inspired by the comedic Japanese game-show classic, Takeshi's Castle, where you must choose one of four incredibly weird characters and try to win the famous Nippon Marathon - whilst taking on the machinations of its shady champion!
The Disney Afternoon Collection (Deck Verified, ProtonDB Gold) £3.99 (75% off) - A set of six Capcom-made Disney games from the heyday of the Nintendo Entertainment System - Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers, Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers 2, Darkwing Duck, DuckTales, DuckTales 2, and TaleSpin (some of them rare and expensive on the secondary market, making this a welcome official re-release) - all perfectly suited to handheld play, plus new Boss Rush and Time Attack modes.
There's a lot of good stuff in this sale!
As an aside, Fanatical is running a Birthday Mystery Bundle, but since they don't provide lists of what you might get, there's not enough I can write about to submit an article, so I'll just leave the link here.

I've got a few recommendations to share, too, if I may!

A whole long post without mentioning Bomberman???......
WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH THE REAL PENGLING?!?!?!?!..........
A whole long post without mentioning Bomberman???......HAHAHAHAHA! There weren't any Bomberman games in the sale, unfortunately. In my defence, there was still a cutesy robot franchise in my post, just a different one.
WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH THE REAL PENGLING?!?!?!?!..........
In my mind, it would be the best way to play it, on the steam deck (that I don't have), even if it is really fun to play with friends and relative on the same PC
shadow warrior 2 is so much fun, is it fun to play on the deck?
See more from me
