Livelock (Action / Adventure / Indie / Top-Down Shooter)

Play alone or with up to two helpers to break the cycle of endless battle between machines in this co-operative top-down shooter. As one of the surviving Capital Intellects, make sure to unlock Eden and revive civilisation.

Candle (Adventure / Fantasy / Hand-drawn Indie / Puzzle)

Normally priced at US$14.99 (AU$ 20.39), “Candle” is an adventure game that includes challenging puzzles. Get to play a young neophyte named Teku and go on a perilous journey to save his tribe’s shaman from the wicked tribe of the Wakcha. Be alert as the way is full of sinister traps and problematic hurdles. Eagle eyes and a great feel for the surroundings are essential in order to master the challenges as one wrong step could lead to doom.

Guardians of Ember: Basic Edition + Wings In-Game Content Voucher (Action / Early Access / Hack and Slash / Massively Multiplayer / RPG)

Following years of war after war, the realm of Olyndale has fallen into disarray. To be a Guardian of Ember is to realise that the brotherhood is the last line of defence against the evil threat. Menacing forces endanger the land and they can only be defeated by the ancient Ember. Retrieve the magic stone, bring back peace to Olyndale and secure the future of the entire land.

“Guardians of Ember: Basic Edition” normally carries a US$9.99 (AU$ 13.59) price tag. The Wings In-Game Content is redeemed in-game and is not a Steam key. Also, the content is only usable for 30 days after activation.
