The money raised is split between three different organisations
Humble Bundle’s latest is raising money for relief efforts in southern Türkiye and northern Syria due to the earthquakes which have killed over 50,000 people and displaced thousands more. The bundle compiles over 60 games, including some heavy hitters such asGotham KnightsandXCOM 2, alongside some smaller gems likeBackboneandCris Tales.The Earthquake Relief Bundleis available for £25/$30 (or any higher price) until March 8th and all proceeds will be going to charity.
The bundle has already raised over £600,000 for relief efforts, split between three organisations:Direct Reliefdeploying emergency supplies to healthcare facilities,International Medical Corpsproviding critical services to affected communities, andSave The Childrenwho are assisting vulnerable children.
Altogether the bundle is worth over $1000/£900, so £25 is a steal. It’s especially tempting because last year’s Gotham Knights is still going for full price on Steam at £50/$60. So, you’re essentially getting the open-world, Bat-filled adventure for half the price, with dozens of other games thrown in for good measure, and all for a great cause.
In herreview, AliceB called the detective adventure Backbone “quite possibly the most beautiful game you’ll play this year,” although it’s not all style with this one. There are plenty of other highlights, but I’m interested in checking out the cosy dioramic puzzler Harmony’s Odyssey. There are also a couple of books like the first ten volumes of the comic book series Saga, as well as over 20 games from Turkish teams and creators includingMount & Blade: Warband. My Turkish reading skills are a little dusty, but I still understood the joke behind Stikir - one of the bundled games.
