I've bought a couple of games in the GOG sale:

The Swapper (Action-Puzzle-Platformer)
The Samaritan Paradox (Point and Click)

and I earned a free movie in the sale:

The Gamers: Director's Cut

and I earned a free game:

The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings Enhanced Edition

I already have this game so I have a free code. If anyone would like to get this game let me know and I'll send you the code and you can see if you can redeem it (I'm not sure if I'm the only one who can use the code but it's worth a try if anyone's interested as it's FREE!).

If nobody else wants Witcher I'll take it, I like RPGs, but of course I'll probably never get around to playing it. A good RPG takes weeks if not months, and I can't even get through a casual game. I've always heard of the Witcher series, though, it would be nice to try. I think I have a GOG account.
I'm not really into 1000 Doors Zoroaster. There's not really a plot, just go through the different doors and put the soul to rest. I got it because it's in parts, though, so can't complain too much. I'm half done, I could easily push it to the side for when I don't have much time or thought to put into a game. I seem to hear something else calling my name right now, just have to go figure out what it is.

I have finished Psycho Train. It was so so... The best thing was the graphics. It was very quiet, no VO and very little background sounds. The ending was very sudden, I thought .

Stuesue, I also have been GOG shopping
Mount & Blade (free)
The Witcher 2 (free)
The Bard´s Tale
Driftmoon
Wadjet Eye Bundle: Resonance
Gemini Rue
Primordia
The Shivah
Fedora Bundle: Tex Murphy: Mean Streets + Martian Memorandum
Under a Killing Moon
The Pandora Directive
Overseer
and the sale isn´t over yet...

Okay, stupid question: What is GOG?

sunshinej · November 23, 2014 12:00 pm

GOG is GOG.com It stands for Good Old Games. It has RPG & Point & Click type and other kinds that you won't find at BF.

Thank you sunshinej. My first computer had Tetris. I loved that game but haven't been able to find it.

Anki, I also got Mount & Blade and The Witcher 2 free but I already had the latter. I also already have Driftmoon. And don't you just love the way that when GOG has a bundle, if you already have any of the other games in a bundle you only have to purchase the remainder at the sale price without having to buy the whole bundle? Who else does that? So I only had to pay .99 cents for The Shivah as I already had all the other games in that bundle. However, like you, I also got The Bard's Tale.

So, the games I ended up getting in the sale are:

The Shivah
Triple Town
Inquisitor
The Bard's Tale
bad mojo redux
The Samaritan Paradox
The Swapper

And to think I paid from $1 to less than $3 for all these great (mostly) adventure games, often including the entire soundtrack, avatars, wallpapers, manual...

I can't wait to play them all but I think I'll start with Triple Town as that's a really cute ... but weird! ... M3 that's 3D and totally different to any other M3 out there. Also, I can play it in dribs and drabs while I'm still here in Sydney with my family as I never get long enough to concentrate on any longer games like all my HOPAs.
Now I'm just tossing up whether or not to get the Tex Murphy bundle... but I have over a day to decide.

I finished Riddles of Fate: Memento Mori and really enjoyed it. I definetly recommend the SE and using a pcc or sale as it is on the shortish side. I think it took me 3 1/2 to 4 hours The ending which was complete reminded me of a spiderman movie. You must keep going back to your house in the game to use your equipment to make keys etc. There was 3 locations that Death sent you to. It had a variety of HO scenes to keep things interesting and there weren't very many of them.

I played Myths of the World Stolen Spring. It took me all of about 2.5 hours and was quite easy imo. There were some lost opportunites in the game to up the difficulty level. I have Spirit Wolf and Fiends and Fairies unplayed as well but I don't think I'll be rushing to play them unless someone tells me they are more challenging.

I used the Witcher code, it worked for me; it turned out I do have an account there and I have Black Mirror 1 and 2 which I've been wanting to play, I totally forgot I bought them! I also have Ultima.
I'm almost through Psycho Train on the laptop and I started Spirits of Revenge: something about a castle, it's pretty good, had great reviews, so when I get these two finished I might immerse myself in Black Mirror. Haven't played a real adventure game in forever, do you still make your own maps?

I have finished Gizmo- Spooky Adventures. I really enjoyed it I got all the Achievements and when I looked at the Playtime it was 46:14! Talk about worth the money!!! And I´m definately going to replay it.

Stuesue, I also have Triple Town and it´s fun to play in between.

Wendy, you reminded me that I have recently bought Black Mirror 2 and 3 from Steam ( for €1.98 = $ .2.46) and totally forgot about it . I´m going to start BM 2 right now!

I tried the first Tex Murphy´s but the graphics were hard on the eyes. There I was told to write everything down!
