Found this interesting e-mail in my mailbox today. I thought some of you might actually be interested. For $19 dollars you'll get Apeiron X, Bubble Trouble X, Darwinia, Redline, SketchFighter, and Aki Mahjong Solitaire. Here's the page. The offer is good for another six days - until Christmas.

Since I already own three of the games (Apeiron, Darwinia, and SketchFighter) I'm on the fence about it, but others might find it quite a bargain.

Yep, I'm going to make the purchase.

Me too...I'm seeing this basically as $10 off Darwinia (which I meant to get ages ago but never got around to it), but I'd at least play around with some of the others as a bonus. As long as anyone's at the Ambrosia site, pick up Aquaria if you haven't already...good stuff....

I bought the bundle just for Darwinia but the one game I thought I would never touch, the Aki Mahjong, is addicting. Must... match... tiles... Most of theses games look really old, but are actually pretty enjoyable - I wasn't expecting that.

Just played Darwinia over the weekend...actually that was cooler than I thought it was from the demo. Now I kinda regret not buying it long ago, but on the other hand, if I'd done that, I wouldn't have had fun playing it over the weekend just now. :) The main drawback being that it's too short--there's such a thing as "always leave 'em wanting more", but in this case, I thought there were too many missed opportunities for some more interesting levels, even granted that there's a very limited selection of different units. Fortunately there are a bunch of mods that add new campaigns, so that pretty much solves that problem. (I started Insurrection, which seems pretty well done and quite different from the official campaign so far.) So if anyone missed the sale but still doesn't have Darwinia, I'd say it's worth getting on its own.

Speaking of having a craving for more, Multiwinia is just around the corner. ;)
