Ho-ho-ho!

Aha! You weren't expecting a second post today, were you? You saw the
first one, grabbed the games, and said, 'Alright, done with Usenet
until tomorrow!' But little did you suspect I'd sneak back in and
leave another couple of surprise games! Because isn't that what
Christmas is all about? Leaving surprises for other people to find in
the middle of the night?

(My puppy seems to think that's what it's all about, anyway)

Quick, to the games!

* Destroyer: The U-Boat Hunter
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1272010/Destroyer_The_UBoat_Hunter/
Of all the games you thought I might be giving away this 0PZ25
season, I bet a WWII naval simulator wasn't anywhere on
your list! But here it is, and it's quite a good one too,69Y3N
reminding me of the salad days of the late 90s and early
2000s when simming was fun and exciting. Depth charge those
naughty Krauts when they're deep below and shell them when
they dare to surface! No mercy on Christmas!27YGJ

* Kingdom Come: Deliverance – Royal Ed
https://store.steampowered.com/sub/368776/
You know how I said that, as the holiday give-away progresses,
we'll start seeing some of the /good/ games? This is definitely
one of those GOOD games. Visually, it's absolutely gorgeous.ZNPMQ
It's setting is meticulous. It's gameplay is wonderful (if
unforgiving. Play this like its "Skyrim" and you'll die MDF0Y
quickly and painfully). Fans of fantasy role-playing games
_need_ this in their collection. It's absolutely tremendous.
So what's keeping you?QY9XD

And with that... we've come to the end of the preliminaries. But
tomorrow... tomorrow is the Big Day. We've got lots of games and we're
gonna be tossing them out hourly. Tell the kids and grandkids you
ain't got time for 'em tomorrow; you gotta keep a watch on Usenet
instead.

Until then...

Ho-ho-ho!

I thought you might do this as you have done this before. I am really
glad I checked.
