The Humble Spring Mega Sale has a ton of games under $10
The annual spring promotion is live, bringing heavy discounts to major indies and classic RPGs. Here are a few standout deals under the five and ten dollar marks.
Humble Bundle has launched its annual Spring Mega Sale. The promotion discounts thousands of PC games across the storefront. Spring has sprung, and the digital retailer is currently flooded with heavy price cuts on everything from massive publisher catalogs to small indie releases. Sifting through a massive database of deals can be overwhelming.
Good luck with your backlog
The five dollar tier is packed with older titles that still hold up perfectly today. Extremely OK Games released Celeste back in 2018, and it remains one of the tightest precision platformers ever made. You guide Madeline up a mountain using a simple set of mechanics: jump, dash, and climb. The difficulty ramps up fast, but the generous checkpoint system keeps it from feeling punishing. It frequently drops below $5 during these seasonal events.

Obsidian Entertainment's take on the post-apocalyptic wasteland is also sitting in the bargain bin. Fallout: New Vegas launched in 2010 with a notorious number of bugs. The modding community has spent the last 16 years patching it into a remarkably stable state. If you want a sprawling RPG with actual narrative consequences, it is hard to beat the price of a cup of coffee.
If you need something faster, id Software's 2016 reboot of Doom is heavily discounted. It stripped away the slow cover mechanics of early 2000s shooters and forced players to stay aggressive to survive. Glory kills grant health. This means the only way to recover is to run directly into combat. The id Tech 6 engine is highly optimized, so it runs well on almost any modern hardware.
The ten dollar tier
Moving up a price bracket opens up some massive time sinks. ZA/UM's isometric RPG Disco Elysium strips out traditional combat entirely. It replaces sword swings with internal dialogue checks. This turns your character's fractured psyche into the primary gameplay mechanic. The Final Cut edition adds full voice acting to the massive script. It is a dense, political, and frequently hilarious detective story that usually hovers around the $10 mark during major sales.
Mega Crit Games essentially created the modern roguelike deckbuilder when Slay the Spire left Early Access in 2019. You draft cards, build synergies, and try to survive three acts of escalating monster encounters. The loop is incredibly easy to lose a weekend to. It is the kind of game that lives permanently on a hard drive.
Team Cherry released Hollow Knight in 2017, and it quickly became the gold standard for modern Metroidvanias. You explore the ruined insect kingdom of Hallownest. The progression relies on unlocking new traversal abilities and fighting punishing bosses. The map is massive, and the hand-drawn art style still looks fantastic. It is an easy recommendation anytime it drops below $10.
A portion goes to charity
Purchases made through the Humble Store still allocate a percentage of the sale to charitable organizations. Buyers can adjust the sliders at checkout to direct more funds to the developers, the storefront, or the featured charity of the month.
The store provides Steam keys for most purchases, though a few titles offer DRM-free direct downloads.
