14 DAY TRIAL // This week's Humble Weekly Bundle brings a very nice treat, in the form of the greatest games of Triumph Studios and Larian Studios, the Age of Wonders and Divinity series, some of the best experiences that the PC has to offer.
The "pay what you want" level bundles together Triumph's award-winning strategy game Age of Wonders along with Age of Wonders: Shadow Magic and Larian Studios' Divine Divinity and its follow-up title, Beyond Divinity.
PC gaming enthusiasts will no doubt remember Age of Wonders to be the spiritual successor to the Master of Magic series, while the Divine Divinity series is Larian's attempt to create modern single-player role-playing games, with Divinity 2 being a truly modern title that combines solid visuals with the tenets that established the genre, and an engaging, story-driven adventure.
The second tier, for those willing to part with $6 / €4, also grants access to Age of Wonders 2: The Wizard's Throne and Divnity 2: The Developer's Cut, while the final tier, priced at $15 / €11, also throws in Divinity: Dragon Commander.
Divinity: Dragon Commander takes a step sideways from the main role-playing game series, by mixing some traditional RPG elements, such as talking to various characters and making decisions based on the conversations, that would later have a great impact on the story's development, with a strategy component that mixes turn-based with real-time gameplay.
The bundle also includes the Age of Wonders and Divinity original soundtrack and, in addition to delivering some truly great games at a very, very low price, or "a bargain of divine wonders," as the official post puts it, it also supports the Save the Children and Doctors Without Borders charities.
All the games in the bundle are available DRM-free, as well as on Steam, for Windows only. As usual, the nice fellows at Humble Bundle have also put together a system requirements page for all the games offered on sale, so, if you have an older rig, you can check whether it can run the games or not.
This would also seem like a good place to point out that Dutch developer Triumph's Age of Wonders 3, the latest iteration in the series, was recently released, at the end of March, and that Larian Studios' upcoming role-playing game Divinity: Original Sin is going to be launched on June 20 and is currently available on Steam Early Access, as a beta version.
