Ready for your monthly infusion of Turok & Zachtronics?
I think I am going to probably skip this, since the only two games that are interesting to me are Police II and Raiden V, I already own hitman 2 gold and none of the others interest me.
But that mystery game has be intrigued so maybe I will just buy it and then maybe I can always find uses for the other games.

The only Zachtronics game left to appear in a bundle is SHENZHEN SOLITAIRE, will it be the surprise game? 🙃

You have to go into the subscription section to see it. If you are on the main page it doesn't show up on mine either.

it shows on my main page. So maybe game for not all regions? Like sometimes games for EU/USA and JPN getting 5$?
Comment has been collapsed.
Never realised that this would vary from region to region as the free bonus game is available to everyone who does not pause their subscription. Cheers for the heads up regardless!

2 days ago it showed up on main page for me, yesterday it vanished and on subscription page it never showed. i doubt its a region issue husbands computer is right next to mine and he has the gift game thing showing. only difference between mine and his is that mine atm is a gifted sub while he pays for his yearly and were both on classic plan :)

In that case, you only get the message if you're paying for the subscription. I would have thought HB would add it to everybody's page to encourage more subscribers. HB do have a special way of doing things!

Wrong, I'm paying for month-to-month subscription (classic plan) myself, and I've never seen the offer of mystery game, not on the main page, not on the subscription section, so I guess not everyone will get the mystery game... I think OwieczkaDollyv21 is right, and some regions won't be getting a bonus mystery game, I've already seen it in the past with at least two monthly bundles that had 1 game less because of the region I live in! More freakin' reason to skip this month...

I can only go by what HB are saying.

Comment has been collapsed.
Only Hitman 2 and Bard's Tale 4 wishlisted...not now, when corona is on the table. Will pause, maybe they will offer me a discount so i will re-think then

It's a good bundle but seems niche when reading comments here. I don't think anyone has mentioned that Driftland The Magic Revival is a decent Majesty 2-like that I've been waiting for a sale or bundle and here it is. TWO Zach games! Opus Magnum was an amazing fun puzzler so I'm looking forward to Molek. Ofc, Gris - that I'm not interested in -, This is the Police 2 and Bard's Tale IV are also well-known names. Personally I already have Hitman 2 Gold but I still got it and split for the other games.
tl;dr - It's a good bundle but as usual not for everyone's taste.
Comment has been collapsed.
Driftland is ... I mean I don't even like Majesty 2? Or I didn't when it came out.
Wasn't super pleased by Driftland but I'm very open to hearing your take.
It's really hard to find a good indirect control strategy game.
Or even indirect control city buildery games that don't have super stupid citizen AI.
Comment has been collapsed.
Although it's "indirect control" like Majesty 2, no unit will ever say "I'm not travelling 50km just for 10 gold" so it might as well be a queue system. The upside is there are no citizens outside of combat units which simplify things so you don't have to worry about stupid AI.
I played through the first campaign of four and it was average, normal difficulty was fairly easy. The tooltip on harder difficulty seems to mirror Civilization/Stellaris games difficulty where enemies would get more resources at a faster rate instead of being smarter. Campaign is great in that it gives you different victory conditions and you're forced to expand differently - focus on different resources or build an army to rush the enemy castle - so you don't fall into the rhythm of winning the same way. There is a MP mode which I cannot comment on, as well as a skirmish set your own rules mode for single player game.
There is diplomacy but it has not been very important thus far in the first campaign, probably more for skirmish single games.
It plays out similar to Northgard or Civ games I'd say. Driftland doesn't have a "wow" factor but it's solid city building with some magic spells thrown in during combat. I'd recommend it to city building lovers, might be a bit bland if you aren't.
Overall I'm having fun in Campaign :)

I'm annoyed at the fact that two games from last month have been put into Trove. I don't feel like I wasted a claim because I didn't want any of the other ones, but it still cheapens it.
Comment has been collapsed.
If only there was a choice to just get Gris, but cheaper then the full price of basic... such a beautiful game... :P
Comment has been collapsed.
Trading? "Fair trading" at Group Buys? Grey market? The latter option would set you back less than $3 and the previous ones are probably even cheaper.
Comment has been collapsed.
hmmm. not using any kind of market tbh, so i wouldn't know. can't really spent the time for it either at this point in life, unfortunately.
Comment has been collapsed.
Fair enough, I get that. I find it amusing to dabble in a bit of trading every now and then, especially these slow days. In any case, buying from grey market sites is as quick as any storefront, if you just want the game.

So Hitman is on sale, I haven't redeemed a started edition keybyet. Wtf is the difference between expansion pass and Silver to Gold upgrade? I don't even see Silver listed?
Comment has been collapsed.
standard edition have 7 locations. There is a free hitman 2 which gives 1 location free to everyone. There was a sliver edition which gives standard edition and first expansion (1 new location), it seems to be removed. But the option is for those who bought silver edition before. Then there is gold edition which contains standard edition and both expansion.

I think this may be helpful to some:
Hey, I want the full Hitman 2 experience, now that I own it thanks to this bundle
buy this after redeeming the humble key: https://store.steampowered.com/app/957690/HITMAN2__Expansion_Pass/ btw it's currenty on sale
Hey, I want the season 1 campaign in hitman 2, but I don't own Hitman 2016
you can either buy the goty legacy pack: https://store.steampowered.com/app/960831/HITMAN__GOTY_Legacy_Pack/ or buy Hitman 2016 or Hitman 2016 GOTY and keep reading
Hey, I want the season 1 campaign in hitman 2, and I already own Hitman 2016 vanilla
just launch hitman 2, and season 1 will redeem automatically
Hey, I want the season 1 campaign and the 2016 GOTY stuff in hitman 2, and I already own Hitman 2016 GOTY
just launch hitman 2, and season 1 and the 2016 GOTY campaign will redeem automatically
Hey, I want the season 1 campaign in hitman 2, and I already own Hitman 2016 but not the GOTY edition
just launch hitman 2 to get season 1 in, and buy the legacy GOTY upgrade: https://store.steampowered.com/app/960832/HITMAN__GOTY_Legacy_Pack_Upgrade/
Hey, I don't want hitman 2, but I own some Hitman 2016 edition, and I want to play in the new engine
Just launch the free edition steam://run/863550/ and the 2016 content will redeem in there
Hey, I paused this month, but I want to buy the whole Hitman 2 experience on steam
Buy this https://store.steampowered.com/sub/272966/ and you are set. Get season 1 as described above
If you are not sure what version of Hitman 2016 you have, here is the GOTY sub: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/4854/HITMAN__Game_of_The_Year_Edition/
even after all this mess, and owning everything, you may find DLC that does not appear as owned. For example, I own Vanilla, Season pass, and the GOTY 2016 content that redeemed automatically, and the silver to gold package and the GOTY upgrade do not show as owned, but I own the content. Those packages are there just for upgrades.
collectors may find going the 2016 route better, to get a +1 in the library, and also because some believe 2016 is better in the old engine/prefer to play with the old bugs
Hope it helps

Damn that's such a mess...
Thanks a lot for making it much easier to us!
Comment has been collapsed.
This is way more useful than any of the information provided in the Steam Page. Thank you very much <3 <3
PS: I already had HITMAN GOTY edition and I was missing Patient Zero to get the full HITMAN 2016 experience. I bought it through HITMAN 2 GOTY Legacy Pack Upgrade as you advised but I would like to know out of curiosity if I'll be able to play Patient Zero on the HITMAN 2016 engine or just in HITMAN 2 engine?
Comment has been collapsed.
You are welcome.
The legacy upgrade is only for Hitman 2, I am afraid, but check this out:
As far as the current steam listing goes, 2016 GOTY does include Patient Zero: https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/4854/HITMAN__Game_of_The_Year_Edition/
So if you don't have it listed, you may not have 2016 GOTY to begin with.
You can refund the hitman 2 legacy upgrade, buy what you are missing from the 2016 GOTY package, and then launch hitman 2 to get everything redeemed there, if you really need that content on both games.
I am not sure what is cheaper. It depends in what you are missing from that link.
Hope it helps.
edit: I think I am going to add this situation to the post. thank you
Comment has been collapsed.
You're right, I thought I had HITMAN GOTY but in fact I just have vanilla HITMAN. Thanks for pointing that out. I don't mind just being able to play PZ on HITMAN 2 and in fact it's actually cheaper to pay for the GOTY Upgrade for HITMAN 2 (which ended up being 1,99 €) than buying the rest of the HITMAN 2016 GOTY Bundle (that includes PZ and it costs 3,66 € to upgrade). Thank you for the feedback <3

Hitman, May 2019 I paid:
May 29, 2019
HITMAN; - Bonus Campaign Patient Zero
HITMAN; - GOTY Outfit Bundle
$6.60
May 29, 2019
Hitman: Codename 47
Hitman 2: Silent Assassin
Hitman: Blood Money
Hitman Absolution
Hitman Contracts
$7.67
$14.27 and I thought it was a decent deal. Now, do I want to use my HB key to get the rest of the DLC? Seems like a waste...
Comment has been collapsed.
I didn't get it from this site actually, plus it wasn't a key that they send me. It was a HB gift link.
If you ask me they should provide me a new key. At least that is what makes sense to me. Looks like i will try and see.
(If i ask the support, they can't block the current key before giving me a new one, right?)

Tomorrow is the autocharge day, so here's a reminder to pause if you don't want this Humble Choice.
