    The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing Anthology is 95% off on Steam.

    Won't do my full table for all of these, but it includes:

    Importantly:

    • This is NOT a complete set. Some of the DLCs for the games are not included.
    • It does NOT include The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing: Final Cut which is a compilation of all three games into one with some additional changes.
    • The developer does offer Final Cut for free to all people who own the trilogy on Steam. In theory you could buy this deal and then get Final Cut for free here, but it's as yet unconfirmed that this actually works.
    • Assuming that doesn't work or you don't trust the company scanning your Steam profile and you still want the Final Cut edition, it is currently 90% off on its own.

          And it's a workout!

          That said, story mode was, in my opinion, nerfed by the Devs. I personally felt that the parts removed by the dev are a huge part of what made the experience the first time through. That said, it doesn't super impact the fun of the moment to moment gameplay but it took it down from a "must play" VR game up a "should play." And it's still a game that can leave you soaking in sweat after a session.

      Oh, nice. I love Zachtronics' games, but hadn't got around to trying Infinifactory yet. Thanks for the heads up. I always forget to check Epic every week for their freebie. :/

    Steam's Pirates vs Ninja's sale:
    https://store.steampowered.com/category/pirates_ninjas

    I... have no recommendations from this list. The only game I've played on the front page is Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, but that's not even on sale lol. I played and enjoyed Ghostrunner, but it was given away on Epic games, and even then the price isn't at it's historical low (note: the ITAD page listing is incorrect)

      It's buried in the list, but my family has enjoyed Paper Pirates. It's a social deduction game where you have to figure out which crew members are haunted (like Among Us or Werewolf), but each player uses their own phone/tablet/computer to play (like the Jackbox games). It works really well as a party game when you have a mix of adults and children.

    For those who were into Alan Wake 2:
    https://store.steampowered.com/app/474960/Quantum_Break/

    Quantum Break is another Remedy game, same developer as AW and Control. If I remember correctly, it wasn't as well received but it's more Remedy if you're into that.

    I don't really know any of the games besides Remnant, which I've heard very good things about! I don't love that a couple of the items are coupons though.

    Capcom Bundle from Fanatical:
    https://www.fanatical.com/en/pick-and-mix/capcom-collection-build-your-own-bundle

    Personally I would recommend RE5 if you want a nice fun co-op experience. Dragon's Dogma to prep for the upcoming sequel, and Megaman for classic gaming!
