They are genuine, though the game quality has declined over time. I wouldn’t suggest the subscription option, but I do advise purchasing a bundle occasionally if it appeals to you.
I searched for the game and found it listed at half the price on Steam via Humble. I wanted to double-check before trying it, since there are many suspicious sites and a discount feels too good to be true.
My friend played the simple sub, and even though the quality of the games dropped over time, he still kept around three picks from each weekly bundle for more than a year. I received plenty of free games from him. That's really genuine.
Half price aligns with typical sale rates. Humble Store offers similar pricing to larger retailers in terms of cost and stock. Their main advantage over competitors like Steam, Epic, Origin, UPlay, Amazon, and even some gray markets (G2A, GMG) lies in their bundles. These bundles are directly from developers or publishers, with the portion of the payment directed to charity of your choice. Essentially, you receive only a portion of the bundle if you pay at an average rate; paying above average unlocks the full package. Because average prices remain lower elsewhere (such as Steam), waiting longer increases the cost needed to obtain everything. I’ve purchased comics via Humble Bundle and bought retail copies later for my collection. The only game I’ve bought through them was Cities Skylines, at roughly a third of its retail price.
The enjoyable part comes when you start discovering hidden gems in your saved collection over time. It’s hard to keep track of how many times a YouTuber mentioned or played a game that looked interesting, and I’ve already acquired it myself. I’m not sure if it’s more cost-effective than buying those specific titles, but the sheer amount of games you get is impressive. There aren’t usually terrible ones there; the overall quality is pretty solid.
