It's that time again when a new charity Humble Bundle makes its appearance. This particular bundle focuses heavily on CRPGs, bringing together a mix of classics from Black Isle Studios that have been given a new lease on life by Beamdog, along with a recent Warhammer hit from Owlcat. The "Beamdog and Owlcat: RPG Masters" bundle is currently live and will remain so until December 11, 2024, at 9 p.m. ET, offering almost a dozen classic RPGs for you to grab.Proceeds for a Good Cause
All proceeds from this bundle will go towards the Girls Make Games scholarship fund. It's not just about getting great RPGs; it's about making a positive impact.
What's Included in the Bundle
For just $30 or more, you'll receive a treasure trove of RPGs. There's also a special coupon for 85 percent off Mythforce, Beamdog's roguelike adventure inspired by Saturday morning cartoons. This brings the price down from $29.99 to approximately $5 before taxes.
Anything below the $30 tier still gets you a great selection of games, except for Rogue Trader. The Baldur's Gate games, Neverwinter, and Icewind Dale have all had a significant influence on modern RPGs. Their impact goes beyond just Larian's Baldur's Gate 3. From Mass Effect to Disco Elysium, these classic RPGs have contributed to the identities of many modern games, including aspects like companions, deep storytelling, and morality systems.
Granted, these games may have some rough edges compared to their modern descendants, especially the first two Baldur's Gate games which were based on older Dungeons and Dragons rulebooks. But if you have a spare $15 and are eager for a deep dive into RPG history, this is your chance. You can explore the collection on the Humble Bundle store page and discover the rich heritage of CRPGs.
