Weekend PC Game Deals is where the hottest gaming deals from all over the internet are gathered into one place, every week, for your consumption. So kick back, relax, and hold on to your wallets.

Epic Games Store brought forth yet another double giveaway this week, this time offering copies of Alba - A Wildlife Adventure and Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, two quite different experiences.

Ustwo Games" Alba comes in as a casual adventure game where you rescue and catalog the endangered local wildlife on a fictional island. Meanwhile, Mimimi Games" Shadow Tactics offers a real-time tactics experience, where you take control of five characters with unique abilities to complete various challenging missions.

You can claim the two titles from the Epic Games Store until November 17, which is when Dark Deity and Evil Dead: The Game giveaways will take their place.

As usual for the Humble Store, it introduced a brand-new bundle yesterday, and it"s a collection for digital boardgame fans.

The new Twin Sails Collection starts with base games on the $6 tier, which contains Ticket to Ride, Carcassonne, Mysterium, Splendor, Small World, and Blood Rage. If you want their DLC, then paying $12 for the second tier gets you 28 pieces of addon content. The third and final tier costs $15, bringing with it A Game of Thrones Board Game plus its two expansions.

If you"re up for even more bundles, Fanatical"s new Platinum Collection is worth looking at too. It lets you choose from a slate of games that include Wolfenstein New Order, its standalone prequel Old Blood, Hypnospace Outlaw, and others starting at $9.99 for three titles.
