Just as a side note, I'm still frequently struck by how pretty this game is.

The Art department absolutely fucking smashed it out of the park on this one, eh? Look at it! Hot.
AS FAR AS I KNOW, because tbh I am not really paying attention, we are into the FINAL 24 HOURS in which you can get EMD crazy cheap instead of just normal cheap.

It would help me out SO MUCH if you could all just buy it pls.

UNDER AN HOUR LEFT TO GET 1 OR 2 AMAZING GAMES AT A SILLY PRICE! People are still telling Dan that they weren't aware of this game so I do not feel bad for spamming you about it! We are here! YOP! 80% Metacritic! Main complaints we've received are that it hates fascists & loves dick jokes! NAB IT!
Just want to make absolutely sure everyone's aware of this BONZO bargain: two excellent games, normally £27.48 total, bundled at £9.48. That's an overall 65% discount!
Put another way: you get Earth Must Die for 25% off *and* LOTCG for 49 pence!
GRAB IT NOW!

Let's put it this way, and yes it IS a kind of blackmail if you think about it: the more copies of EMD I sell, the more likely I can make a swishy Swindle sequel next.

Only a few days left to take advantage of this! Also, bear in mind the bonus comedy content of the handful of negative Steam reviews and threads with the hilariously transparent motivation of being upset that the game takes a rather negative stance on fascism.

I started playing DAYS GONE and there's a bit in the intro set during a zombie outbreak where one of the biker men says "we've been through worse shit than this before" and the other man says "yeah, we have"

WHAT. What could they possible have gone through worse than this?? Excited to find out.

If I ran a F2P game business that had "AI-enabled development, marketing, and live-ops" I would make absolutely sure my company name was not a very-close anagram of ARSE.
