Copy pasta of a copy pasta of a copy pasta since I'm just that lazy :D.

Hello hello and welcome all to the madness.
The challenge is simple: Play and beat any 6 games, starting today, that have been featured in any given Humble Monthly/Choice bundle in one month.

The prize: Borderlands 3: Super Deluxe Edition

Game length does not matter and I'm not looking for 100% achievement runs. So long as you play and beat 6 games, I'm happy. You can go easy mode and play a bunch of 1h games or go crazy and play 6 +30h games. So long as they were in a monthly at a given point, it is all good.

Just post a comment with either screenshots/ achievements showing that you fulfilled the criteria and I'll add on Steam and give you the link. Feel free to share your thoughts on the games you've played, but it is not required.

FAQ:

Why you doing this?

I hate money. That and I realized I've been subbed to the monthly for nearly five years (yes it has been that long, I checked) and it occurred to me that I've barely touched the games I've gotten from it, let alone played them. Figured the same would be true for a few others, so I figured this is a good way to change that. A sensible person would probably unsub in this situation, but please refer to the beginning as to why that will not happen.

Why six games?

The first few monthlies had 6/7 games in them so I went with that.

How long are you going to do this?

Until my credit card statements gives me nightmares. I just got another credit card >:D Help me ;-;

This event "ends" on July 3rd when the next HB Choice releases, though the giveaway itself will end the next day. If you manage to finish game number six in between that time, feel free to post, but know that I cannot guarantee that I'll be able to give you the link in time. It may be hard to believe, but I don't live here. I am a real human living in a human home doing human things and in no way a rogue AI biding my time.

Good luck, have fun and stay safe.
Thanks for reading, don't forget to salt your food while cooking.

EDIT: I have beaten half of "Almost there" levels and could most likely beat Eliza on time too but no way I can do everything, I should have started seriously playing these games early. Guess I'll try again next time from day 1.

I hate it. I really hate it, but I did it. Sometimes (well, many times) I just step-by-step repeated some guides about how to beat a boss

Thoughts on Sword Legacy Omen and Dandara? They have been both on my radar for some time but never got around to playing them :/.

Sword Legacy Omen: Average game, lots of unused potential imho. I did nearly every battle exactly the same move order. Story average as well. It's not horrible, but if you have other games to play, let it stay on the radar

Dandara: Can recommend this one. Nice metroidvania, movement is a little strange. Game was created for mobile as well. But you get to it very fast. It has a dark souls-like exp loss on death (You respawn at a checkpoint and have to retrieve your exp). But difficulty is not high, so it's not frustrating. Play time is kinda short ( 5 hours for me, but did not explore everything), so give it a go, when you have some time.

Great concept! Thumbs up for the initiative :)
The games keep piling up, but do we really get on with playing them all? Probably not. Hoarding and hoarding.
This challenge would fit me well, as I try to play my games to death, sort of, doing everything worth doing before moving on (except Lifeless Planet, stopped caring at a point), but this takes time :P
I'm not sure if I will make it in time, but even if this challenge makes me appreciate more of my catalog, that's good enough right?

Journey, really nice game, I like most the music.
My great discover was Ryse: Son of Rome, I have it in library getting old alone, and Its a really great game!
