Turns out one of the teases that Night Dive has been making has come to fruition. Night Dive and Tommo are bringing 28 classic titles from Humongous Entertainment, the educational software company founded by Ron Gilbert and Shelly Day, to Steam.

On May 1st those games will be joined by Putt-Putt Goes to the Moon, Freddi Fish 2: The Case of the Haunted Schoolhouse, Pajama Sam 2: Thunder and Lightning Aren’t so Frightening, Spy Fox 2: Some Assembly Required, Putt-Putt and Pep’s Dog on a Stick, and Freddi Fish and Luther’s Water Worries.
