In recent times, discount bundles like the Humble Bundle have been making waves for gamers on the Desktop and Android platforms and raising millions of dollars for game developers. The iOS platform, however, has been excluded from these bundles. Until now.
Today, our friends at Thumb Arcade are happy to announce the world’s first iOS discount bundle – the Thumb Arcade Indie Game Bundle for iPhone. This first offer includes ten games, multiple award winners and featured titles, at a 79% discount. The bundle, as it’s called, has a retail value of $23.90 and is on sale for just $5 (equivalent to 50 cents each).
“We were told that it can’t be done,” says Andy Rosic, founder of Selfpubd, the parent company of Thumb Arcade. “But Selfpubd’s central goal is to reimagine the seriously disjointed app discovery process, so we stayed at it until it became a reality.”
This game bundle includes award winning and Apple featured titles: Sentinel 3: Homeworld, Forever Lost: Episode 1, Circulets, Angry Robot: Wall Street Titan, Kill the Clowns, Dragon Siege, War of Words, Fruits’n Tails, IncrediBlox, Chicks Ahead, plus bonus game art and an option to support a worthy charity, One Day’s Wages. Users can buy from their iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, Mac or any other internet connected device.
iTunes, iOS, iPhone, iPod touch and iPad are registered trade and/or service marks of Apple Inc.
