A number of Scottish developers and publishers have joined forces to launch a charity sale on Steam.
The Scottish Games Sale runs until September 14 and includes more than 50 games, all of which have been discounted to raise funds for Glasgow Children’s Hospital Charity.
The money will go to the charity’s Games for the Weans campaign (‘weans’ is Scottish slang for ‘kids’), which will enable the hospital to buy adapted gaming equipment, consoles and video games for patients, and support the hospital’s Play Team, meaning the children always have someone to play with.

The game, which was created by Scottish developer Sad Owl Studios, currently has a Metacritic score of 84 and while in developmentwon Europlay 2021, the “Eurovision of video games”.
