   Name Your Own Price. (Yes, Pay What You Want!)

   That's right. We've partnered with 6 fun game developers to bring you The Crack The Case Gamer Bundle! A keen eye and a quick mind are what you need with this bundle. 5 out of the 6 games are in some way, shape, or form linked to solving a puzzle or mystery in order to succeed. You pay what you want for TWO games that will keep you gaming for hours including: Nightmares From The Deep & Dark Arcana: The Carnival. And if you pay more than the average price, you'll also receive Star Defender 4, Golden Trails: The New Western Rush, Cradle of Rome 2: Premium Edition, and Abyss: The Wraiths of Eden.

   There are some good games in this package and currently the minimum price to get all 6 is only $0.96. I would expect that to go up, but don't expect it to go very high. You get DRM free downloads.

   You get DRM free downloads for Windows or Mac.

   @Toris & others: easy to create an account. You just have to give them an email address where they can send your receipt and download information (although you only need this if you want to download later since right after buying you are sent to a download page). This is the third bundle (all great deals) I have bought from them and I haven't noticed any increase in junk mail to the email account I provided.

   Campy, I've had the same experience as you with emails from Stack Social: all I'm getting is the occasional email telling me about Gamezebo bundles, which is what I signed up for, & what I want.

   That said, does anyone know if Cradle of Rome 2 in this bundle really is the "Premium Edition"? It sounds just like the version I've got from BigFish, except for this in the bundle description:

   Goodies including extra levels, exclusive making-of, tips & tricks, original soundtracks and gorgeous wallpapers
   

   Also, my BigFish game opening screen says 1.1.0 in the upper right corner, which I'm guessing is the version number. The filename on the zip file from the bundle includes "PE_1.5.0" so I'm thinking maybe it is different. Maybe PE stands for Premium Edition, and 1.5.0 is the version number. Ah, well, if I get ambitious (or curious enough!) and install the bundle version, I'll post what I find out here.

   Darn, I just bought Nightmares From The Deep: The Cursed Heart and haven't even played it yet. I already own 4 of the 6. Thanks for the info.

   @Delilah: Yep, Cradle of Rome 2 PE, soundtrack, wallpapers, etc.
   @Terri: I also had Nightmares from the Deep, but that was the only one (had CoR, but not CoR2). Lots of other good stuff here. May not be as much for you and the average is now up to $1.76. Would have been worth more than that to me, but maybe not in your case.

   Thanks, Campy. I will try the bundle version of Cradle of Rome 2.

   I did try Golden Trails. It didn't even say that it was a premium edition, but it is. Even has a shooting gallery where you can practice shooting the bad guys that keep popping up. Of course, you have to shoot 'em before they go away, there's the trick, and that's how you get extra hints (and I need a lotta hints!) And there's also tips & tricks, wallpapers, soundtrack, "making-of," and extra levels that you unlock by finding 150 sheriff's stars. The sheriff gets a bit hokey after a while, but overall it's a better-than-average HOG. Oh, yeah, you start out in untimed mode (a plus for me), and have to unlock "Frantic" mode by earning 50,000 points. Artwork is great, with lush scenery/graphics, and the evolution of some of the artwork is shown in the making-of details.

   I bought it because I realized my Golden Trails: The New Western Rush and Cradle of Rome 2 from Gamehouse have ads so it's worth this small price to not have to play with ads. I just wish I hadn't just bought Nightmare. It's a great deal. Thanks again for letting us know about it.

   Nightmares From The Deep & Dark Arcana: The Carnival were both purchased from BFG. Are these versions different from the BFG SE ones?

   Terri, in case you haven't already checked it out, all 3 of the Artifex Mundi games (Nightmares, Dark Arcana, and Abyss) say "Collectors Edition" on the intro page, and each has a button for "Extras" (or somesuch), with wallpapers, soundtracks, "making-of" accounts, extra gameplay, etc. And all 3 have integrated strategy guides, too. So yes, best as I can tell, they're the same as the Collectors Editions from Bigfish.

    In that case, I'm really glad I bought the package.

    How do you uninstall these games? The title is not showing on my programs list of RevoUninstaller.

    Thanks.
