Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris is an action-adventure game that is the sequel to Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light. This game takes place in the Temple of Osiris, which is deep in the deserts of Egypt. Help Lara fight her way across the sands and through ancient tombs, as she battles gods and monsters of myth and legend.

Limbo is the well-known artistic puzzle video game developed by Playdead. In Limbo, you’ll control a young boy who wakes up in the middle of a dark forest. You’re not sure of how you got there, or why you’re there in the first place. You will soon find out that it’s a pretty dangerous place, and realize you need to get out of there. While it only takes 5 to 6 hours to beat, you’ll definitely enjoy your time living on the edge of the danger zone.

Stealth Inc. 2: A Game of Clones is a 2D puzzle game developed by CurveDigital. If the name sounds familiar, that’s because it’s the sequel to the Stealth Bastard Deluxe. In Stealth Inc. 2: A Game of Clones, you’ll need to make your way through challenging puzzles while trying to take control of multiple clones.

If you can’t wait for the list of new games to arrive, be sure to check out last month’s promotion here.
