Fair to say these bundles haven't been fantastic the last 2-3 months however as far as I'm aware this is the cheapest this game has ever been on PC so I thought it might be worth posting even if you don't value the bundle aspect. You'll also get 6 other games unlocked on September 2nd however there's no way to know what they'll be before that date; you can check previous monthly bundles to see what sort of games you can expect.
SOMA is a sci-fi horror game from Frictional Games, the creators of Amnesia: The Dark Descent. It is an unsettling story about identity, consciousness, and what it means to be human.
The radio is dead, food is running out, and the machines have started to think they are people. Underwater facility PATHOS-II has suffered an intolerable isolation and we’re going to have to make some tough decisions. What can be done? What makes sense? What is left to fight for?
Enter the world of SOMA and face horrors buried deep beneath the ocean waves. Delve through locked terminals and secret documents to uncover the truth behind the chaos. Seek out the last remaining inhabitants and take part in the events that will ultimately shape the fate of the station. But be careful, danger lurks in every corner: corrupted humans, twisted creatures, insane robots, and even an inscrutable omnipresent A.I.
You will need to figure out how to deal with each one of them. Just remember there’s no fighting back, either you outsmart your enemies or you get ready to run.

June was brilliant! Rocket League, The Forest, Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes. All those games individually worth more than the price of the whole bundle

Last one of these I got was June and my god am I glad it was. July and August were trash. Not too sure about this either. Heat for those it does interest!

Only game that I'm interested in is Poi, but even that is only an early access title. It reminded me a bit of 'A Hat in Time' which is taking an eternity to be finished. First the release was Q3 2013, then late 2015, then Q4 2016, now its 2017. Good grief.

While I don't think it's for me (I passed on the opportunity to buy when it was discounted on the PSN), this is a good price for SOMA, regardless of the rest of the bundle.
Indeed it does - I rather wish that I'd be in touch with Kickstarter at the time! Still, Yooka-Laylee and Bloodstained: Ritual of the NIght are enough for me to count Kickstarter as a force for good in my mind.

Soma really is fantastic, scfi amnesia, made by the same team and all their games have been awesome.

I already own this, having bought it after the sadly failed Kickstarter, and it plays very much like Super Mario 64 (virtually identical moveset and all), so if that's the sort of thing you're after, then I'd highly recommend it.
It may be in Early Access, but it's got quite a bit of content to it at this point. 5 full worlds, each with 8 challenges, plus hidden collectables... and they keep adding to it as time goes on, so there's no telling how much bigger it'll get.

I'm gutted. First month I've subscribed for and, apart from Van Helsing, I've not heard of a single one. Last month there was Satellite Reign and Kentucky Route Zero which I both really fancied playing :disappointed:

It's never worth getting the monthly bundle if you are not interested in the game they reveal day 1. It's usually the biggest game of the bundle.

The Humble Trash & Treasure Bundle. The selections are incredibly divisive, the only upside is it floods the marketplaces with bargains.
