Discover 2 collections, which give access to Indie Gems.
During the Summer Sales, wherever you look, you’ll find deals worth grabbing, such as the bundles introduced today, which give access to 6 of the best indie RPGs. It’s a great opportunity to add some fresh titles to your library. The games are of top-notch quality, and I have no hesitation in recommending them. Let’s dive into the details and see what they include.
The Squad Tactics
The first bundle is The Squad Tactics Summer Bundle, which offers a collection of three tactical strategy games at a 42% discounted rate, available only until August 31st. This limited-time deal includes Shardpunk, USC: Counterforce, and Cyber Knights: Flashpoint. Players can enjoy diverse gameplay elements such as turn-based tactical strategy, RPG, survival, resource management, and strategic combat. Each game brings unique settings and mechanics, ensuring a comprehensive and engaging experience for fans of squad-based tactics games.
In Shardpunk, players are called to face a threat represented by rats—not just any rats, but giant, heavily armed ones. They must traverse long maps, never looking back. The game features delightful pixel art graphics, XCOM-style combat with a cover system and skills, and a very high difficulty level.
Next, there’s USC: Counterforce, another tactical strategy game that pits players against an alien threat. Players will undertake various missions where they can exploit their surroundings to their advantage, perhaps by blowing everything up. The title is currently in Early Access but is nearing its final release, making it perfect for this bundle and for your library.
And then there’s Cyber Knights: Flashpoint, which allows players to lead a covert organization of mercenaries, hackers, and everything else you’d find in a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk world. The game offers tactical combat with complete freedom to carry out stealth operations or, alternatively, kill everyone. Additionally, players will need to manage their base of operations in true XCOM style.
The Endless Adventures
The Endless Adventures—Deep & Replayable RPGs bundles three critically acclaimed role-playing games, each offering extensive playtime through diverse character-building options, procedural generation, and vast content with a 45% discounted tag. This bundle includes Wildermyth, Star Traders: Frontiers, and Vagrus: The Riven Realms, each promising hundreds of hours of immersive gameplay.
Wildermyth features a unique fantasy adventure with a procedural storytelling system that ensures a different journey for your heroes in every playthrough. The game offers rich tactical combat encounters, with significant choices affecting the party’s story even if a character is downed. Players can expect new heroes, enemies, story events, and maps each time they play.
Star Traders: Frontiers allows players to explore a sci-fi universe with over 30 character classes and hundreds of talents and ship components. The game provides various paths, from smuggling in black markets to commanding starfighter carriers, with nine factions to align with or exploit.
Vagrus: The Riven Realms is set in a detailed dark fantasy world where players lead a caravan through a vast open world filled with unique locations and factions. Recruiting companions and facing challenging foes are key elements, with every encounter and quest adding to the immersive and satisfying gameplay.
