Could the third time be the charm for Groupees and Capsule Computers, with this bundle consisting of no less than eight indie games? Heck if I know – the power of foresight is not on my vast list of awesome abilities.
Unlike their previous outing, this one’s divided into two tiers: $1 and $4; but you should know how that works by now. As always, the three extras – once unlocked – are included no matter which tier you go for, or how much you’re willing to spend (the amount listed is simply the minimum). The first one is Rise of the Ravager, a game I reviewed many months ago. Time will tell what the remaining two are. Now, onto the games!

Don’t forget that Groupees’ Capsule Computers Indie Bundle 3 will only be available for a little less than fourteen days, so don’t wait too long; unless you enjoy paying full price for indie games, that is. Nothing wrong with that, but since a bundle has been made available and all – might as well, right?
