A big welcome back to all Loot Happens subscribers. Loot Happens is a weekly newsletter that is emailed and posted on LootHappens.com.
It's important to note that for premium subscribers, game offerings and in-game content, every week is different. Sometimes it's in-game codes, Steam keys, and giveaways, but premium members will always get something special every mailing. We also occasionally get mind-blowing early access or premium games that pay for an entire year's subscription.
Each newsletter is generally structured as Premium Loot > Free Sub Giveaways > Game Feature > Game discounts.
Key Giveaway for Premium Subscribers: Wall World
Wall World is a chill but addictive roguelite game on Steam where you control a giant spider robot climbing an endless wall. You mine into caverns to gather resources, uncover upgrades, and fight off waves of alien creatures. The gameplay loop is simple—dig, defend, upgrade, repeat—but it becomes more rewarding as you unlock better gear and discover new biomes. With its cool pixel art, moody weather effects, and satisfying progression, it’s easy to lose hours climbing higher and building out your ultimate spider tank.
Rotwood: Key Giveaway For Free Subscribers
Rotwood is a breezy yet punchy co-op roguelike beat‑’em‑up from Klei Entertainment. You choose from a few weapon classes and team up with friends (or go solo) to brawl through corrupted monsters across handcrafted biomes, picking up gear, perks, and crafting builds. It’s a fun mix of combo-based combat and risk‑reward progression where each death sends you back stronger—like a brawling version of Hades

Another Crab's Treasure: Key Giveaway For Free Subscribers
Another Crab’s Treasure is a quirky undersea Soulslike where you play as Kril, a hermit crab who’s lost his shell and must piece it back together by scavenging ocean trash—from soda cans to Rubik’s cubes—for protection and upgrades. The game blends tight, challenging combat with clever environmental storytelling and visual gags, all wrapped in colorful, charming art. It's surprisingly approachable for a Soulsborn title thanks to adjustable difficulty options like “give Kril a gun” for easy mode, making it a hit even for newcomers

Featured Game Review: Monument Valley 3
Monument Valley 3 is like stepping into a dreamy painting where every corner hides a secret and every level feels like a little piece of art. If you’ve played the first two games, you already know to expect clever puzzles, beautiful visuals, and that signature Escher-inspired world-bending magic. This time, though, the game introduces a fresh new story and two main characters—Ro and her child—bringing a more emotional, almost meditative vibe to the journey.
Puzzle Challenges
The puzzles are just the right mix of chill and challenging. They never feel frustrating, but they’ll definitely make you pause and think. The shifting architecture and perspective tricks are as satisfying as ever, and the new mechanics (which I won’t spoil) add fun little surprises along the way. It’s the kind of game that makes you slow down, soak in the atmosphere, and appreciate the detail.
Visually Stunning
Visually, Monument Valley 3 is absolutely stunning. The colors, the ambient music, the animation—it all comes together in such a calming, polished way. It’s not a long game, but it doesn’t need to be. It’s short, sweet, and full of heart. Whether you’re a fan of the series or brand new to it, this is one of those games that makes you glad mobile games exist.
Every newsletter has a lot to look forward to, and we are in active communication with several developers and studios. More to come next week!
