I'm led to believe we have an historical low on this. Remember it's also in the Humble Bundle Mobile Bundle 18 if a bit of Android activity takes your fancy.
This War of Mine is the first game that lets you experience war not as a soldier, but as a group of civilians in a besieged city, struggling with a constant threat of disease, starvation and death, either from hardship, a sniper's bullet or at the hands of bandits. Do whatever it takes to survive - without destroying your souls, if possible.
The pace of the game is imposed by the day and night cycle. During the day snipers outside stop you from leaving your refuge, so you need to focus on maintaining your hideout: crafting, trading and taking care of survivors. At night, take one of your civilians on a mission to scavenge through a set of unique locations for items that will help you stay alive.

Thanks for posting. I am currently addicted to this game, buying it on another platform gives me more versatility (I can play it even when the kids are on the console).
I haven't bought from Games Republic before, so was able to get 10% discount using code REGISTER-10-OFF

For those who may not be aware (and don't mind the different platform), This War of Mine is part of the latest mobile (i.e., Android) bundle:
I have had success playing some games using Andy (http://www.andyroid.net/), although I haven't tried this one. Of course, you still get the Android input UI. At the current exchange rate, the whole bundle is about £4.90.

I have this on Android and iOS but something tells me it would play much better on PC.

this is a great game, watch some youtube videos. Its random each time so you wont have the same experience. Its very emotional and based on actual happenings, very sad moments and situations indeed. Very hidden game, more should know about it. Nice price here for it too. heat!! <3
