Highlights: Demon’s Tilt is 50% off until the 20th. League of Champions Soccer ($7.99/$9.99: Friday) Positive Side: Puzzles and Riddles ($7.99/$10.75: Friday)

Princess Bubble Story ($10/$12.60: Friday) With the launch of the Escape Academy via iam8bit, we also have to sound the alarm for Syrenne McNulty. The download section is led by a surprise port of the PS5 series in Solar Ash and a game we’ve seen at a few indie shows in the tricky AK-Xolotl. If you prefer games that may be endless for other reasons, there is also the release of Super Bomberman R2. Roleplaying games in the Baten Kaitos collection. (And based on last year, it’s 95% farming sim by volume.) The biggest release in dollar terms is the digital deluxe edition of Mortal Kombat 1, with the biggest release by time going to a pair of 100+ Monolith (and Monolithic). Last week the value almost doubled between the first and last day of the week and we’re starting in the high 30s outside Japan ahead of a possible Festivus that could lead to shadow drops later this week.

Things we missed last week: NBA 2K24 (now with Kobe Bryant hagiography), Zing Zing ZIp in the archives, and a game that surprisingly doesn’t involve the Colossus of Boggo Road, who famously botched a spin kick and went flat fell on his. Sounds like a big week for fans of Silent Towns and IBM.
