Get your hands dirty without leaving your couch with Humble’s Down on the Farm bundle. Through May 10 you can add eight eccentric farming sims to your Steam library for just $20 at Humble. If you’d like to try your hand at starting a homestead outside of Stardew Valley, this is a bundle you’ll want to check out.
Prices taken at time of publishing.
Humble’s Down on the Farm bundle includes the following titles:
The Witch of Fern Island
Cornucopia
Immortal Life
Cattails: Wildwood Story
Ikonei Island
Everdream Valley
Littlewood
No Place Like Home
Each of these titles offers an interesting twist on the familiar farming sim formula cleaning up your homestead, cultivate crops, and develop relationships with a variety of NPCs. No Place Like Home has you returning from Mars to clean up a polluted Earth, while the cast of Cattails: Wildwood Story is made up entirely of… you guessed it, cats.
Purchases of this Humble Bundle benefit the non-profit Kiss the Ground, a charity that promotes regenerative and sustainable agriculture. However, you can always customize how much of your purchase goes to the developers, Humble, or charity by using the “adjust donation” menu before checking out.

Developer Starward Industries has released a new update for its narrative adventure game The Invincible. The update, dubbed the Voyager update, has a new trailer that you can check out below.

It's no secret that is littered with junk for players to pick up and horde if they so desire but a new mod has now made collecting everything significantly less annoying. Bethesda's RPG has a reputation for including all kinds of miscellaneous props to make their worlds feel more alive and authentic and the developer's most recent game did this better than any of its previous titles. Given the amount of useless objects strewn about, the game's inventory system isn't helpful when it comes to organizing everything.
Apex Legends will soon offer a Solos mode for the first time since 2019, even though developer Respawn Entertainment said earlier this year it had no plans to let players run amok in the battle by themselves again. When the next season starts, Solos will replace the Duos mode for six weeks.
Amazon's Fallout adaptation has reportedly already been watched by 65 million people, making it the second most-watched season of a show on the platform behind The Rings of Power. It seems a lot of those people are flocking to the games in which the show's world takes place, whether they be returning after years away or trying them for the first time. If you need the games to play them for the first time, or you want to revisit Fallout's world but need to buy the games again, Fanatical has all seven of them for just $24.99.

Stellar Blade launched last week, yet you wouldn't believe it with all the talk surrounding the title to do with censorship and the game's jiggle physics. If you were, let's say, the developer of a cozy indie farming sim that had previously shown very little concern about how bouncy their female characters' chests are, now would be the worst time to make a comment about it.
Steam is lousy with farming sims that will absolutely destroy your productivity by ensnaring you within a compulsive loop of reaping and sowing. Rusty's Retirement explicitly promises a less engrossing experience: it's a farming sim that "sits at the bottom of your screen while you do other things."
‘Tis the season of Fallout, and to celebrate we’re seeing the return of one of our favorite bundles on Fanatical. A massive 82% discount on every PC release makes this a must-see for anyone getting into the franchise - you’re spending less on the full collection than you would a couple of these games by themselves.
If you want to play Escape from Tarkov offline with friends, it looks like it’s going to cost you.
