PC Games from Japan on Steam

Kairosoft, ArcSys and Yuri Bundles!

Hey there, been a bit! I wanted to make sure you didn't miss any of these currently running deals on fine JP games here this summer. We have three different humble bundles down below, as well as a really good deal on Kairosoft games I think are worth checking out.

I just wanna start off with a reminder that any bundle you get on Humble can have its payment sliders adjusted! Don't like IGN, a specific publisher or charity? Don't be shy about adjusting the sliders as you see fit. Its your dosh!

First up is a set of 8 diffrent Kairosoft bundles right here on Steam:

All 8 Kairosoft Bundles

Kairosoft is a small team that specializes in sim management games with an immediately recognizable pixel style thats become something of their own signature genre. Like several of you, I first discovered Kairosoft with Game Dev Story on Android, but they've been around since around 1995 and have grown here on Steam and mobile with success branching into anime tie-ins.

At around ~$7.50 for 4 titles each, I think its a great time to either try out or collect Kairosoft. Its also a pretty unprecedented discount for them, so I definitely think its worth getting some.

• Kindred Spirits on the Roof
  
• Lilycle Rainbow Stage!!!
  
• Letters From a Rainy Day -Oceans and Lace-
  
• OshiRabu: Waifus Over Husbandos
  
• Please Be Happy
  
• SeaBed
  
• Fatal Twelve
  
• Blackberry Honey
  
• Night Cascades
  
• Highway Blossoms
  
• Highway Blossoms: Next Exit DLC

I haven't read a lot of yuri, either in manga or VN form (any recommendations?). I can recommend SeaBed though, and the quality of the titles makes it looks like Fruitbat Factory, MangaGamer, Sekai Project and others pooled together a great selection of reads. And for only $12? Anyone even remotely interested in yuri should get it, right?

Its only live for another FIVE DAYS, so be warned.

• Guilty Gear -STRIVE-
  
• Blazblue CentralFiction
  
• Under Night In-Birth II Sys:Celes
  
• Blazblue Cross Tag Battle Special Edition
  
• GUILTY GEAR Xrd REV 2 Deluxe Edition
  
• Arcana Heart 3 LOVEMAX SIXSTARS!!!!!! XTEND
  
• Melty Blood Actress Again Current Code
  
• KILL la KILL - IF
  
• CHAOS CODE -New Sign of Catastrophe-
  
• Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R
  
• GUILTY GEAR

For $20 you get Strive (love it or hate it), UNIEL II (latest version) and even Blazblue CF (getting a new character?). Plus there's a handful of titles no fighting gamer should be without, like GGXXAC+R and Melty Blood. They even tossed in the original Guilty Gear! I first experienced Guilty Gear on PSX by chance as a kid, and I'd be glad for others to get to experience it too, and see where the series came from. GG has slowly walked away from its heavy metal influences over the years, but on the playstation we had rough guitar performances like Holy Orders, and Sol was from the start the most badass fighting game character I'd yet seen. And if you play well, you might get to see Baiken before her boob job!

Overall, I'd say its a fantastic fighting bundle, likely to tempt you into getting newer Strive and UNIEL dlc, but also doesn't skimp at all on value. I'd defintiely consider it.

And the Steam sale is on for another week (til July 9)! I'm thinking of posting some steep deals from the Steam sale to highlight, but been a bit busy lately, plus I always get overwhelmed with the Steamsale and usually do all my shopping in the final hours of the sale.

Hope its a pleasant summer for you over there, and hope I bump into you in one of these ArcSys games someday!
