Several anticipated Mac OS X games hit the Apple Mac App Store today, including Deus Ex Human Revolution (the Ultimate Edition), Bastion (pictured above), Dungeon Crawlers, Azkend 2: The World Beneath, and OOTP Baseball 13. Cut the Rope for Mac and Mahjong Elements HDX received large updates.

\nEarlier today I put together a fairly comprehensive look at Deus Ex: Human Revolution Ultimate Edition<\/a> and you can read that article for more information (plus the requirements, which are hefty!)<\/p>\n

Other “New and Noteworthy” games include:<\/p>\n

Bastion<\/strong> (Bastion – Warner Bros.<\/a> – Mac App Store – $14.99)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Where do I begin with Bastion. You can’t ignore the fact that it’s a Warner Brothers title. That’s going to attract attention right away. It is an action-RPG game with “more than 40 lush hand-painted environments<\/em>” that are focused on the “Calamity” catastrophe that changed the world. It’s a little pricey at $14.99, but I will be covering it in the near future (a review is forthcoming). Roleplaying games can be really hit-or-miss these days. The artwork interests me, that and I’ve heard it’s a fairly big-budget game. It does weigh in at around 1 GB and requires Mac OS X 10.6 or later.<\/p>\n

Dungeon Crawlers<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dungeon Crawlers is a port of the iOS Dungeon Crawlers, a 3D “tactical RPG” by Ayopa Games LLC \/ Drowning Monkeys LLC. You take a team of Dungeon Crawlers through dungeons and caves. It has a cartoon-like design, and has a lot of humor\/comedy built into it. It requires Mac OS X 10.6.6. I’ll be talking about Dungeon Crawlers more in depth in the near future.<\/p>\n

Azkend 2: The World Beneath<\/strong> (Azkend 2: The World Beneath – 10tons Ltd<\/a> – Mac App Store – $6.99)<\/p>\n
