You ever just stumble upon a deal and think, “Did I read that right?” Well, that’s what happened with this game—Children of Morta. I mean, it’s sitting there in the PS Store for a measly $4.39. Seriously. Not that I obsess over sales or anything—okay, maybe I do. Anyway, Dead Mage made it, and 11 Bit Studios shoved it into our laps during their ‘July Savings’ thing. It’s supposed to work on the PS5 too, which is cool, if you’re into that.
Oh, and let me just sidetrack here for a sec—what’s with slicing prices by 80%? It always feels like they’re doing me a favor, but really, it’s me helping them clear digital shelves. Whatever, it’s cheap fun. Speaking of, the add-ons are practically pocket change. Ancient Spirits? Try $1.74 with PS Plus, or $1.99 without. Paws and Claws drops to $0.69 if you’re in the PlayStation club. I mean, like… why even bother with decimals at this point?
The whole shindig ends July 17, I think, so don’t dawdle. The game’s about the Bergson family—seven different folks you can play as. The blurb blabs about an ‘extraordinary family of heroes’—sounds like marketing gibberish but who doesn’t love a good hero story? There’s corruption and evil and all that jazz. Get your guardian on, right?
There’s even some local co-op action. And Family Trials? Not to be confused with… I don’t know, family board game nights. More like a separate game mode with all these random game bits tossed together.
Honestly, if you’ve got $4.39 lying around, this is where to toss it. Maybe it’s the caffeine talking, but this deal feels like a no-brainer.
