The titles to be offered will include an exclusive, specially remastered adventure game compilation debut (Steam for PC, Desura for PC, DRM-free PC download), an unlikely-themed multiplayer FPS (Steam for PC), a cult puzzle action game (Steam for PC and Mac, Desura for PC, DRM-free PC download), and an overlooked sim-action title (Desura for PC, DRM-free PC download).

Those who optionally pre-order now will get game access as soon as the bundle launches, lock in their price, and receive as a bonus Rush Coil's festive chiptune album '8-Bit Christmas', as featured on Adult Swim (this bonus is also available to those who pay enough to drop the price during the bundle.)

I havent figured any of the clues out. Bummer.

Im debating on a preorder this time, though that chiptune christmas album would be nice. Thing holding me back is one game is Steam only. Maybe I'll just pay a little less than usual to make up for that.

They mentioned on Twitter that none of the games have been in previous Humble or Royale bundles.

Unlikely themed multiplayer FPS that uses Steam?
Hmmm...

Some guesses of mine...

Payday: The Heist -> 4 player MP-based co-op game where you rob banks, perform heists, and wear cool freakin' masks. (http://store.steampowered.com/app/24240/?snr=1_4_4__13)
EYE: Divine Cybermancy -> Cyberpunk FPS/RPG/Action game like Deus Ex, but TONS more INSANE -  built for SP or MP Co-Op. (http://store.steampowered.com/app/91700/?snr=1_5_9__13)

Well EYE has SP and the hint specifies a MP shooter so its probably not that. And bank heist isnt that unlikely a theme. My money is on Dino D-Day.

Sounds more likely than my pick.
Sounds WAY more "unlikely".

Dino D-day is something I really have to look up game play videos for.  I heard about The Oil Blue a while ago and have heard nothing but praise since.  I'm kind of tempted.

Unfortunately the word on Dino DDay is it kinda sucks. But as part of a bundle with other cool games...whatever.

Soundtracks for The Blackwell Trilogy and the game GreenTech+, which was a previous game made by the guy that made The Oil Blue, are now on your download page.

They added the game ShellBlast (http://www.vertigogaming.net/game/shellblast) to the download page, and tweeted they have another surprise in store.

Elfsquad7 is cute, but it really needs other players to be fun I think. Theres no online play so that makes it a bit trickier on PC. And it only supports one screen resolution.

It's limited but it may have potential to be fun. Hmm, gotta find some people to play with. Someone will probably enable online multiplayer for it in some way.
