Yea most of those games are shitty dating sims. A short hike is definitely the gem of this bundle, costing $8 in steam by itself. If you don’t own that I can recommend getting this bundle, if not, skip it

I bought A Short Hike on sale one day and would second the recommendation: Short, but very good.

Oh: "All proceeds go towards the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF), a non-profit working to provide food, water and medical treatment in Gaza. "

Wait, they are giving indie games to palestinians as a form of relief? Talk about being a tone deaf hipster.

I wish someone gave you a brain.

The Palestinian Relief Bundle on Itch.io contains 373 items for a minimum cost of $8. 213 of the items are are games, including greats such as Wandersong, A Short Hike and Coffee Talk. All proceeds go towards the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF), a non-profit working to provide food, water and medical treatment in Gaza.

All of the items in the bundle, which also includes tabletop source books, comics and soundtracks, would normally cost $1657 (around £1339). While it's available for $8, Itch.io lets you pay more than that if you're feeling charitable - and the current average contribution is around $11.52.

From the sound of it, they are selling games, and then donating the money to a nonprofit that is supposed to help Gaza

Did you read past the headline?
