    World of goo is a great indie game :D Got 90/100 Metascore which is a pretty impressive score!

    Darwinia is also a great game, bought those two in this sale :T

    Haven't played the others...but will now!

    World of goo, originally a flash game, and Darwinia are both excellent games.

    World of Goo was being offered free by the developer not long ago (I downloaded it). Not sure if it still is, but worth checking.

    It is the same game as the humble Indie Bundle yes, its often in these deals because so many people pirated it when it was released.

    The humble Indie bundle is DRM free, but this link this requires the download of another program called Capsule (a bit like steam) which prevents you installing more than one copy. However it does let you "trade" your digital copy back so you can get the 1p refunded if you dislike the games :)

    Do they guarantee this?

    Are you kidding?! Are you that worried about 1p? Or are you asking because you'd donate a fairer amount, and thus wouldn't want to risk not getting it back if you didn't like the game?
