There is a good chance that the dungeon crawler could be either The Binding of Isaac, or maybe a little more likely Dungeons of Dredmore.
(I own both of those... )
The games in an Indie Royale haven't been part of any other bundle, so that rules out The Binding of Isaac (which isn't turn based, anyway) and possibly Dungeons of Dredmore.

Just in case anyone missed it: the Groupees Be Mine 2 bundle is live since yesterday. It contains The Baconing, Plain Sight, Madballs in Babo: Invasion, Beat Hazard, Sol Survivor and some non-game items. The minimum purchase amount is $4. If you pay $10 or over this unlocks Killing Floor, some music and a 'graphic novel' (= big comic book).
The first two group goals, which unlocked some more music, a comic and an indie film, have already been unlocked. The last group goal that's specified so far will include DLC for Beat Hazard, The Baconing and Madballs in Babo: Invasion, and the final group goal (as of yet unknown) has been confirmed to include another game.
Indie Royale's Spring Bundle is up
- Unstoppable Gorg
- Depths of Peril
- Tobe's Vertical Adventure
- Inferno
- Slydris
- Ballistic
Usual pricing structure applies. Pay what you want, minimum goes up and down based on what others pay. Plus, pay $5 or more and get some music as well (chiptunes, meh).
I don't think anybody checks the front page, to be honest. We tend to check the latest posts, so as long as people keep posting in the thread telling us about the latest bundles, it's all good.
EDIT: It would appear that there is only one Steam key for the first 3 games, and that despite my already having Machinarium on Steam, I don't end up with an additional copy to gift to someone else.
I caved and went for it even though I had Machinarium. Botanicula looked weird enough to make me want to, at least, try it. I guess I should redeem the past 3 bundles' keys I've purchased before I misplace them.
Pay more than 5$:
Disciples 2 Galleans Return
Altitude
-3 secret bonus games that will be unlocked bit by bit, one of them will be Wake-
I already own all of the games currently in this bundle so no deal for me!
What I really want to recommend here is Disciples 2. It's a HOMM-style turn based Strategy/RPG-Mix and really good (even though a bit old by now). I really wonder why it is in an IDIE-bundle though. The package there gets you both expansions for Disciples 2, which include the base game and stretch over 4 campaigns for the 4 races which all have a unique look at the story of this game. It is the same story but they make it quite interesting.
If you don't own it the bundle is woth it for those games alone. Trust me on that.
Alien Shooter is fun but if you already own any other game in the series you don't need it.
ARES: I got it from another bundle and never played it. so I have no idea how good it is.
Altitude: The game focusses on multiplayer. So much that you can only get achievements in multiplayer. That's a real turn-off for me. So much that I regret buying the game for 1$ in a Steam-deal.
You'll get all of the following for the minimum price of $4, unless otherwise noted:
"The Baconing", with "Roesha" DLC
"Madballs in...Babo: Invasion", with "BDI Evolution" and "Scorched Evoution" DLCs
"Beat Hazard", with "Ultra" and "iTunes" DLCs
"Plain Sight"
"Sol Survivor"
"Killing Floor" (if you pay at least $10 for the bundle)
"Scratches: Director's Cut" (Will unlock when the bundle reaches $70,000 in sales)
And some other stuff like music albums, comics, and an indie horror film.
I just spent half an hour playing Faerie Solitaire. What I don't like about these kinds of games is that they're just mindless wastes of time. When I start playing them I'm engaged enough that I don't notice that the time flies, but I always regret playing when I'm done. If the rest of the games are along the same vein I'll pass on this one.

INSTA-BUY!
INSTA-MISS!

Dredmor was in HiB, so yeah, it's out too.
There's no chance it's either of those. The dungeon crawler is debuting on Steam in this bundle, and both of those have been on Steam for months.
Didn't know that.
But I'm already sold. So.. umm.... alright.
Rather Dashing guessed it perfectly.
EDIT: In fact here are the games:
Explodemon (no steam)
Defence Grid: The Awakening (With 4 map packs as DLC)
Alien Zombie Megadeath
Hack, Slash, Loot
And the bonus game is:
Astro Tripper
Also, has everyone got their face kick keys yet? I still haven't got mine.
And yay, another bundle I can skip due to lack of interest. Woo.

Also, insta-bought, because, you know, weakness.
Botanicula
Machinarium
Samarost 2
pay more than Average:
Kooky (movie!)
Windosill
This guy sells that game all by himself.
"fruit larceny!"

I've only paid $5 for this bundle (for the soundtrack), and most of that has gone to charity.
(Since the devs already have some of my money)
EDIT: GOG version is getting soundtrack and Machinarium for free.
(Along with an art book)
So I'm happy now. Now to enjoy this lovely little game!
Also, TotalBiscuit was really funny while playing it.
Alien Shooter
A.R.E.S.

All games have separate Steam keys.
Forever is a very long time.
Well you need some games after the Zombi-Apocalypse(TM) when every game-creator is (un)-dead.
I forgot I wanted this. Thanks for reminding me!
