That was such a messy situation...
HB messes up by pricing error on Store and tons of copies are sold.
Unchained Devs lose a lot of money by people buying the game a ridiculously cheap price thanks to HB's error.
Keys were revoked and refunded.
Unchained Devs game gets review bombed due to this HB error.
Unchained Devs lose money by giving away free copies of their game to try to make things right with the mess up HB caused.
Hopefully people who made a bad review due to this will remove it or at least update it to what they think of the game. And hopefully HB is more careful in the future so this doesn't happen again.

I guess review bombed would be a strong choice of words as it wasn't on a massive scale. There were reviews posted that were specifically due to having the game revoked when it happened though.

For me email was in promotion
That moment when people just assume Gmail's weird (and inaccurate as hell) e-mail sorting scheme is the norm... 🙄

Poor devs, they didn't need to give a new key because the pricing error wasn't their fault, but they did.
Kudos to them.

Those who bought immortal unchained from humble bundle when there was a pricing error and same key was revoked days later should check their email for new key + free dlc and below message from developer. For me email was in promotion. The email is dated on 19-jan-2019, i only saw it today when i was deleting spam and promotional messages. The free dlc is Midas touch.
This is a message from the Immortal: Unchained Development Team.
You have recently purchased a copy of Immortal: Unchained on the Humble Store. The purchase was made during a pricing error, and because of this, your key(s) were revoked and refunded. We as developers feel that the players are ultimately our responsibility, and we hope that providing you with a new Steam key of Immortal: Unchained and the additional Midas Touch DLC Pack will convince you that we take this responsibility seriously. The Humble Support Team has added your free keys within your Humble Account. Log-in, grab your keys, and start playing!
If you have left a negative review, we would be very grateful if you would reconsider.
Unfortunately, it is not possible for us to reactivate your revoked key, and we apologize for any inconvenience that it may have caused.
