Everyone needs a source of inspiration, someone who motivates us to reach our full potential. For me, that person is none other than Jesse Faden from the game Control. Let’s be real here—she’s a flying, telekinetic powerhouse who not only rocks a leather jacket but also communicates with mystical monoliths. Talk about ticking all the right boxes! If you’re on the lookout for some inspiration of your own, you might want to dive into the Humble Heroines bundle. It’s a fantastic collection of seven games featuring strong female leads, all for the cool price of $12.
Control is a favorite of mine, not just for its captivating atmosphere but also for Jesse’s killer fashion sense. But recently, I’ve been hooked on Kill the Crows. This game is a wild, fast-paced twin-stick shooter where you’re up against furious flocks of crows while wielding a six-shooter in a quick-draw style reminiscent of Red Dead. The bundle doesn’t stop there; it also includes gems like Darksiders 3, Thief of Thieves, Pseudoregalia, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous, and Beyond: Two Souls.
As with many bundles, buying this one supports a good cause. Part of what you pay will help fund nonprofits like Girls Who Code and the Girls Make Games Scholarship Fund. These organizations are doing tremendous work in leveling the playing field in programming, game development, and other STEM areas. Before finalizing your purchase, feel free to use the “Adjust Donation” option to decide how much of your money goes to Humble, the game publishers, or charity.
