This week we are sitting 68% un-played (up from 66%, I won a lot of games and did do the bundle thing. )
I think this will be my format, at least for now.
And like last time,Still playing random games for a few hours to sort them and battle the “Never Played” part of the chart.

Another HOG (one of many this week actually!) I haven;t started it yet, but it has a very positive rating, and the trailer looks good. |

A second HOG. Haven’t played this one either, but this one has negative reviews. Problems are usually for small bugs, so hopefully winning it will let me overlook them. |

It caught my eye as a histroical walking simulator, but I can’t remember what else i wrote, and can no longer see the GA. |

Another puzzle-platformer, but this one looked really good. I haven’t had a chance to try it yet, but immediately downloaded it. |

When I first entered, this had a 6% postive rating, it has gone up to 9%. That alone intrigued me, I will probably regret this. |

Another HOG, but this one the reviews are mostly positive again. I am trying to win the second one before I play the other two, but I might just need to start without it. Edit Now have all three. |

More HOGS! I think the man with a claw is a bit silly, but otherwise, the game looks good, and the reviews support it. |

I am not sure if the “Female Protagonist” tag is new, or i just noticed it. But, since one of my favorite genres is point and click at the moment, I decided to take a chance. It is on my to play list very soon! |

Another “Female Protagonist” tag with some charming music. I can;t wait to play this one either. |
http://store.steampowered.com/app/284390/  |
A point and click with pixel graphics and a horror tag, call me intrigued. And I missed the numerous bundles it was in too. |

I almost didn’t enter this because the doll reminded me of the one from the old Rugrats show, but i decided to with a couple of minutes left, and won. Admittedly, this game looks promising, and the story line has me intrigued, but I only just won it, and have yet to play it. |

I actually 100% completed this. I liked it, but I did have a few issues with it. The number one issue was the constant pop-ups. I wish it had a side screen with alerts or something, especially towards the end when there are a few years where I didn’t need to do much. I played around with the mods after I was done, but the time skip one makes the game unplayable. Overall I feel this game is more in an Early Access kind of mode, but they are now working on another game. It’s not a bad game though, I’d still recommend it, as long it is on sale. |

I played a little of this, and it was not good. I tried sandbox mode, and it still unlocked achievements, when it clearly stated that would not happen. Sending your heroes out seems to be a secondary thought, as you just watch a bar fill up on the lower left. People can be unhappy, but there is no clear way to cheer them up. There are objects in the game that seem to have no use, and are not explained. I am sure i will go back to it, but not anytime soon. |

I bought all of the 12 Labours this year during the Summer Sale, and just started this one. I enjoyed it a lot, but it is very easy, even at the difficult setting. Nonetheless, enjoyable, and I fully recommend it! I hope to finish it soon. |

Another game I haven’t finished yet, but I think I am close. At first I was skeptical of the image first shown, but this game is solid! Music, artwork, story, game play. Just get this if you like platformers It’s been in a few bundles so it might be easy to get. |
http://store.steampowered.com/app/485570/  |
Lastly, I will mention this game. I haven’t been able to make a full decision on this one yet, so I’d say go for it if you can win it or get it cheaply. It’s simple, but fun. I will have to play more, and am looking forward to it. |
Thoughts
So i won most of those game on one day, effectively almost doubling my win count. I don’t even understand how, some crazy good luck.
I also played a lot more games;
Popixel, Goblin Defenders, State of Anarchy, Puzzle Galaxies, AOF - World, Flix the Flea, Goocubelets 2, and Club Manager 2015. For the most part I didn’t like these games, some even went on my will never play list. Some warrant a second return.
I’ll try to feature ones i like first. Or ones I didn’t like but have positive reviews. This week, fortunately, there was a lot to like.
Bundles
There were a few. Some featured;

I was going to say I have spare keys fro the first Time Mysteries but you actually already have that one. It’s the second that you’re missing.
Whoops, Thanks for catching my typo!
Well, with all those GAs you run, that crazy good luck was probably just a long overdue streak of Karma returning :P
I hope you don’t mind some HTML hints, because I can’t resist giving them ;)
widthorheightfor those images, but not both, the other will be scaled accordingly. That is, the images will retain their correct aspect ratio without you doing any math and won’t look stretched or compressed.<img>inside the<a>:Thank you! I am not too familiar with Markdown and was trying a bunch of different options, and apparently I didn’t try that one. I will do that next week!
Oddly enough, I was happy about winning stuff, but I was also a little sad that my ratio took a hit.
