I've never played any of the Tropico games - I have no idea how good it is.

Thanks! Someone recommended Tropico (3?) to me a few years ago and I never got around to trying it out. Now I can.

Just noting that it appears you have to connect your steam account to your humble account in order to get the game.

Not that this is necessarily a problem.

@mwb1100: Thanks for this. We don't know the game but my 14½ y/o daughter and 6y/o son were keen to try it out, so I have got the key and linked it HumbleBundle<-->Steam (which was a bit of a palaver).

I thought this was the case for any steam purchases from Humble for a while now?

No, I still have a redeem button for each game that gives me an activation code for steam when I click it.

That is true, but you still have to have a steam account linked IIRC.  For a while, they autoredeemed on Steam, and that's when you started having to have a steam account.  Not sure if when they removed that capability, they removed the requirement, however.
