Despite already boasting the likes of Legend of Grimrock and Closure, the folks over at Humble Bundle clearly felt that their latest-offering could do with an extra helping of brilliance (it is Christmas, after all). Thus, for the next five days, you can get your hands on not only these great games, but three extra titles too. These bonus games, as mentioned in the earlier article, are locked behind the average price barrier (which just happens to be $6.52 at the time of writing), but anyone who already bought the bundle gets them absolutely free regardless of the price you paid. 

So what are you getting? Let's begin with Offspring Fling - this one-man creation perfectly emulates the look and feel of the great puzzle platformers of yesteryear. Featuring over 100 levels, an art style reminiscent of the SNES era, and some of the cutest pixelated critters you ever did see, it's already worth more than the asking-price. Next up there's Cave Story+, the critically-acclaimed 'Metroidvania' homage. A true platforming-adventure echoing the style of 8-bit classics, while injecting just the right amount of modernity, with a soundtrack that is, quite frankly, aural gold. Finally, and perhaps most interestingly, we have The Basement Collection; an assortment of Flash games created by none other than Edmund McMillen (yes, he's certainly getting a lot of coverage in this particular bundle). The collection features Meat Boy, Aether, Coil, Spewer, Triachnid, Grey-Matter and Time Fcuk, along with a whole mess of unlockable content. If you haven't heard of some of those titles then don't worry, I haven't either, but since they're from the mind of the man who gave us Super Meat Boy and The Binding of Isaac I'm eager to check them out.

So Humble Bundle 7 gets even better and frankly I can't think of a single person I couldn't recommend it too. More great games have been added to an already fantastic collection, and you've only got a few days left so please do get at it. It'll certainly be a little while before another package like this comes along so I'd encourage everyone to take advantage while you can. Expect more reviews of the Bundle games in the coming days.
