We all have that someone who motivates us to reach our full potential. For me, that person is Jesse Faden from “Control.” I mean, what’s not to love? A telekinetic powerhouse who can fly, wear a leather jacket like nobody else, and chat with mysterious obelisks—she’s got it all. If you’re still on the lookout for your own muse, you might want to dive into the Humble Heroines bundle. This deal offers seven fantastic games featuring strong leads for just $12.
While “Control” has won me over with its unique vibe and Jesse’s impeccable style, my new favorite from this collection is “Kill the Crows.” This game is a high-octane twin-stick shooter where you wield a six-shooter to take down vengeful birds in a furious, Red Dead-style quick-draw fashion. Among the other intriguing titles in this bundle are “Darksiders 3,” “Thief of Thieves,” “Pseudoregalia,” “Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous,” and “Beyond: Two Souls.”
As with other bundles, a portion of what you spend goes to a good cause. This time around, some of the proceeds benefit Girls Who Code and the Girls Make Games Scholarship Fund, both of which are fiercely committed to bridging the gender gap in programming, game development, and other STEM fields. Before you seal the deal, you can tweak the “Adjust Donation” settings to decide how much of your payment goes to Humble, the developers, or charity.
