Short answer: “yes.” Longer answer: “yes, why haven’t you done that yet?” Previously reported here at BrokenJoysticks.net, Indie Royale’s May Hurray Bundle is available for the next three days. You should buy it. The price fluctuates as it sells by increasing slightly if someone pays that minimum price and decreasing slightly if someone pays more than […]
May Hurray Bundle Giveaway
We were wondering about what to give away today. The Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering Corporation (today known as Sony) was founded on the seventh of May 7th 1946. Over 500 years prior to that auspicious occasion, Joan of Arc took an arrow to the shoulder. Instead of whining about it, Joan continued adventuring. In fact, she […]

Mount & Blade Collection Giveaway
A little bird told me that Broken Joysticks would publish something Mount & Blade related soon. That sounds like a good excuse to give out copies of the Mount and Blade collection. Unfortunately, this collection doesn’t include the Napoleonic Wars DLC, but it does have Mount & Blade, Mount and Blade: Warband, and Mount & […]

Indie Royale’s latest game bundle is now available. The five games included in this $5 USD bundle are Dungeon Defenders, Containment: The Zombie Puzzler, Data Jammer: FastForward, Brainpipe- A plunge to Unhumanity, and Weird World: Return to Infinite Space.

Trine 2 Giveaway
Yesterday’s Wargame giveaway went off without a hitch, but I found myself wishing that the Cold War had been prevented by the magical merger of NATO and the Warsaw Pact into a common entity. Then the former enemies could work together to solve puzzles in an action platformer that played to their unique strengths. Wait […]
