I just tried them. They aren't games. You'd probably spend 5 minutes tops on each. The city generator does just that, generate a city which is either wireframe or solid but untextured, and you can fly over and through it. Voxel destruction lets you shoot at a building made of blocks and they blocks break off and fall.
Reading about city generator, it sounds like they had more stuff working, but I guess that's all they were willing to make a demo of.

Talisman Prologue doesn't really sound like a full game. Is it?

Somehow this bundle makes indie games look amateurish. Sure, a lot of them are, but this makes them look more than usual.
Note, that I'm not hating indie games, but honsty a lot of I've bought from these bundles really aren't worth even the bundle price.

I believe it is a full videogame, but it's a single-player only adaptation of a boardgame originally meant to play with your friends. It turns the boardgame into some kind of fantasy solitaire and I'm not sure whether that's fun. I've read some reviews that said in this state, without hotseat or multiplayer function, it's kind of pointless and boring. I'm still a little curious about it though.
It's possible the developer named it prologue because he planned to expand on it and also release a multiplayer version in the future.

The only game in this I want is Talisman.
Currently debating whether it is worth it...

So I think I've decided to pick it up, but haven't decided what I can consider a fair but safe price....

EDIT: One comment on youtube says they ran out of money and had to cancel multiplayer, so it's kind of an abandoned project, I guess.

By the looks of it (judging it by what TB had to say), it sounds like a complete waste of time. Oh well, that makes it easy for me to not buy the bundle.

The Talisman game website still shows the multiplayer "Talisman Digital Edition" for pre-order, due in the summer.

Not really interested in any of the games, but if the unlocked soundtracks are good then I might get the bundle for those.
