Botanicula on Humble Bundle

[Martin Pham]

Guys,

Amanita Design's latest game, Botanicula, is out on Humble Bundle, along with their other two games, Machinarium and Samorost 2. I think it's a good deal considering

Going to grab that today.

It's too bad it not for Android this time, some of those would be cool to use on a tablet.

We'll be releasing our evaluation of this fairly soon. For now this is the biggest news:

There is No EULA!

FTW!

[Lisa Pham]

And we've now done an evaluation on it.. Botanicula got an over all score of 96% .

"We like evaluating games that are easy to install, hassle-free through the activation process (even if there is none to begin with) and a pleasure to play. We believe the latter is, by far, the most important aspect of evaluating games, especially when we found that Botanicula was supplied via. The Humble Bundle without a EULA, Privacy Policy or other nonsensical documents laden with waivers of liability from other developers and publishers......... "

I like these guys (Amanita). They know what they’re doing. They’re consistent and they believe in creating a unique vision of video gaming that invites others to explore, take risks and, ultimately, play. The best part is that they do all of this with a proper DRM and digital distribution strategy that is consistent with their vision.
