  1. Pretty good bundle by tocsy · · Score: 5, Informative

    Worth it for Psychonauts alone, if you don't have it. I'd never heard of any of the other games but I've been told they're all pretty spectacular.

      Amnesia is amazing. I really need to go back and finish it. Sword and Sworcery is... interesting, but the soundtrack is pretty decent if you're in to that kind of thing.

    If you're into indie game bundles. There are currently several other active bundles:
    Groupees Build a Bundle

  3. Cross platform via wine by ProteusMoteus · · Score: 5, Informative

    Limbo on Linux is a wine bottle that runs with very poor performance. Trying to improve performance via the latest version of wine exposes a recent bug (shader model 3.0). Psychonauts on Linux is a real icculus port, but is just a wine bottle on Mac.

    Don't consider wine compatibility as the type of support for Mac/Linux that I expected from the Humble Indie Bundle.
