Sites like Humble Bundle


Humble Bundle is an online retailer of video games founded by Jeff Rosen and John Graham in 2010. It was acquired by IGN Entertainment in 2017 but still operates as a separate subsidiary. Humble Bundle offers game bundles at very low prices and buyers can even set the price for the bundles they wish to purchase. The company supports different charities and sales profits are shared by the developers, with a portion given to charity. As the company became more popular and grew bigger, they offered bundles more and more frequently and expanded their offerings to, not just independent game developers, more established companies. They have since offered video games, ebooks, software, and digital content. They have also grown into a game publisher and still consistently support charities.
