Is my calendar broken? Could have sworn Christmas comes before New Years… yet Flying Bundle decided to kick off 2014, long before anyone’s opened their presents! Ah well. Cheap games are cheap, right?
As usual, we’re looking at two different pricing tiers full of games with an assortment of Steam and Desura keys; keep in mind that Desura is (for the most part) DRM-free. Few Mac games, plenty for Windows users and… that’s about it. Oh, wait, no, there’s also a mystery title in the $1 tier. Intriguing! Time for an overview of the bundle contents.
$1 tier

Uprising 44: The Silent Shadows (Windows – Desura) Greenlight
Uprising44: The Silent Shadows combines third-person action play with real-time strategy. It is a unique combination of the two modes of play, and has an in-depth and interesting story-line which has not yet been used in WWII computer games – the greatest civilian uprising against Nazi occupying forces – the Warsaw Uprising. It is a story of the Silent Shadows – forerunners of modern day special forces – paratroopers dropped behind enemy lines to organize resistance and use diversionary tactics in the fight against the forces of the Third Reich.
