I snagged Figment 2 for €1.22 (half of the Figment Bundle ).

There's more on the wishlist but I'll wait for the Autumn and Winter sales.

I highly recommend Carrion for the entertainment value, but I wish I had a minimap because I'm constantly getting lost

Everyone should own Sonic Mania – probably the best game of the franchise.

Here's a complete set of interactive maps to give you an idea of what I'm talking about

It does look non-intuitive if it isn't played in a single sitting.
