Just bought this on Amazon. (Would've bought it here if I had realized that it was available.)
Nice coverage, good reviews. Though it would've been useful if the developers had been listed in the main info.
If you're ever planning a third volume of this, here's some suggestions for games that I feel are worth including, for one reason or another:
80 Days, The Cat Lady, Curious Expedition, The Darkside Detective, Dominions 5, Don't Escape - 4 Days to Survive, Freedom Fall, The Hex, Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass, Legend of Grimrock 1 & 2, The Lion's Song, One Way Heroics, Open Sorcery, Pizza Express, Princess Remedy in a World of Hurt, Princess Remedy in A Heap of Trouble, Ring Runner: Flight of the Sages, The Sea Will Claim Everything, Thomas Was Alone, To the Moon, and Zniw Adventure.
