      I don’t think I have any of them, but I’ll likely get a Zachtronics game (not sure which) and maybe Human Resource Machine. Those have been on my wishlist for a while, but I haven’t seen a lot of these so there are probably a bunch of other gems.

    What happened to humble bundle ? A lot of people have a list with thousands of games because of this site.

        Years ago, it was really big. I often heard about humble bundle online, but now it’s very rarely talked about. The only time I recall reading about them recently was an article about how they’re struggling.

          I still hear about them and buy from them, but I buy a lot less because:

          1. They were bought by IGN, so they’re a for profit group now
          2. Changed Choice to offer major AAAs more often instead of being focused on indies
          3. They set slider for minimum percent to Humble in bundles to 15% (I used to give about 20-30% to Humble, now I do 15% as a form of minor protest)
          4. Bundles often come with coupons for the store instead of just being bundles of games, and the $1 tier is either complete trash or non-existent

          And so on. Basically, they’ve gotten more corporate, so they’re less unique vs the competition. In fact, I’ve picked up more bundles from Fanatical than Humble in the last couple years because I no longer feel a preference for Humble, and now just go where the deals are.

          I’m guessing some or all of that is why the sources you follow don’t mention it as much. It’s still very much a thing though.
