In Snuggle Truck, you must overcome treacherous terrain get your cargo of precious stuffed animals safely to the zoo.
As a bonus-to-the-bonus, Android users can also download the uncensored original: Smuggle Truck, the same game framed as an immigration satire, which was reportedly too spicy for some game marketplaces.

I just noticed that the exact wording on the site is to donate to the secular charity of your choice. I've fixed my last post.

I just bought the Humble Bundle Android II and Indie Gala 3 bundles. Think this makes 6 bundles I've bought since I gave up gaming for Lent.

That infinity bundle is kind of intriguing. What kind of games do they make? Adventure? Puzzle? From the titles they make me think of a Big Fish Games style game.

Re: Ultimate Indie Bundle Thread - Humble, Royale, Gala, etc.
Faerie Solitaire is a solitaire game with some fantasy adventure elements. Faerie Alchemy is a match 3 puzzle game, with a "fantasy adventure" mode on the way.
FaeSaga looks like it's to be a 2D adventure game in the vein of Secret of Mana, down to the 16-bit inspired art.
Secret Game #1 is described as "A card game that will give you nightmares..." and Secret Game #2 is "a puzzle game with a high fantasy story."

Defense Grid was another I had been meaning to get on XBLA, but I wasn't sold on a tower game without a mouse, so the Royale bundle was pretty easy to grab.

^ ~30 games in the last few weeks isn't enough, so I'm in. Wish more (some?) went to charity, but even if only one game gives me an afternoon of entertainment it's worth a ten spot.

The developer appears to be trying to inspire consumer loyalty through generosity. For example, everyone who previously bought Faery Solitaire, even those that paid $1 from a Steam sale, got an infinity key for free. I guess they're hoping that those that download and play Faerie Alchemy for free will, if they like it, support them by buying the bundle.

You also get instant access to Faerie Alchemy and Fae Saga. Both are "in dev," but Faerie Alchemy is on the iTunes App Store, so it's certainly playable. Although, you can play Faerie Alchemy for free on Newgrounds or Kongregate.

Faerie Solitaire is fairly fun so far, but $27 seems like a lot to risk over what may end up being only a game or two.
And with my indie games currently averaging less than a buck a piece thanks to all these bundles, $27 just seems high.
If they had the bundle at minimum $5 for the next 2-3 games they design I'd be all in; or if I had a crystal ball and knew they'd be designing games I'd want to play for the next 12 years.....
