IG Magicka splash

This week marks the start of The Indie Gala Magicka bundle that brings a flurry of awesome indie titles spanning a substantial number of genres. The Indie Gala team really know how to start the new year with a bang bring a bundle full of awesome titles out of the closet to celebrate the new year with. There are also three secrets to unlock, and will require you to pay more than the average to obtain them.

The Indie Gala Magicka bundle includes the following games (hint. Magicka is defiantly one of them)

Pay more than $1 to receive:

  • You Are Empty – Set in Soviet Russia You Are Empty has you playing as the protagonist out to save the day from all manner of horrific Russian experiments, creating an all new action experience you don’t want to miss.
  • Trine – One of the best puzzle platformers to of ever been released. You take up control of a band of adventurers  each with their own unique abilities to try to solve the puzzles they are laid out before you.

Beat the average (current at time of writing $5.93) and get:

  • Magicka – The ultimate in co-op dungeon crawling gameplay. I say co-op loosely as will you after you spend the first hour or so of the game just finding new and innovative ways to kill each other.
  • Cities In Motion – Takes a slightly different tack than most city management games and gives you more of a mayoral role within the game. In Cities In Motion you are able to govern numerous global cities how you see fit and try your hand at balancing the books. If you’ve complained about government spending maybe you can try you hand here.
  • Deponia – A lovingly created point n click adventure game from the indie heavy weight Daedalic entertainment. Follow this zany adventure throughout this weird and wonderful world.
  • Painkiller Black Edition – If you are a fan of old schools FPS games such as Doom or Quake you may be very excited to find a newer addition to this genre here. What many regard as one of the modern greats in terms of FPSs Painkiller will have you mowing down room after room of hell spawn to some rather great tracks.
  • Magicka Vietnam (Secret unlocked)

The bundle brings some of the best indie games to have been released over the past few years together and is quite the steal at the current price point. Each game is great fun and if you have yet to play Magicka get some friends together and get ready for hours of hilarity as you try to get through the levels without killing each other.

The Indie Gala Magicka bundle can be purchased from the official website now.

    “One of the best puzzle platformers to of ever been released. You take up control of a band of adventurers each with their own unique abilities to try to solve the puzzles they are laid out before you.” Come on. It’s “to’ve” or “to have”, “to of” is something 16 year old girls write on facebook.
