    Looks like GamersGate is having a promotion, they’ve had crazy prices all week. If you’re not familiar with the Penumbra collection, it’s a series of creepy first-person adventure games. There’s a lot of puzzle solving and not a lot of shooting, and they’ve got a great atmosphere. I started playing one but got stumped partway through and have been too scared busy to get back to it, but $5 is a really good bargain for the trilogy, which just completed this year if I’m not mistaken.

    Pick up the pack here. Start at the beginning, there’s a story. And play it at night with headphones, it’s that kind of game. If you’re not sure, check out the trailer:

    Come on, that’s worth the price of a gin and tonic.
