You apparently don't even need to sign up for an account to buy or download (though I did, just so it'd show in some account, in case I should ever need to re-download it and can't remember where I got it from).

Download always stops before its finished :-/

Yes, you can add this game to your itch.io account :)
On download page, click Claim button :)

Yes, you can add Gone Home to your account. However, not all games which have 100 percent discount can be claimed on itch.io. Some work, some do not.

Too bad, I don't care about itch.io or should I? Anything superior to GOG there?

More DRM-free games.
Typically indie ones, but DRM-free. It's like any other store, there's plenty of good games and plenty of lousy ones as well. Less of a matter of what's "superior" and more what particular games you're looking for.

There's pt-br too, excellent! Thanks Max! =)

But you don't need to register in itch.io to download the installer.
So if you want to play that game, there's nothing stopping you. =)
Just keep the files, for the case you need to reinstall it, in future.

Thanks for the information. Doesn't sound too bad. I might risk a closer look then :)

Gone Home is a walking simulator anyway.

Not that interesting.

Do I need an account for this?

Not usually my genre, but for free I wouldn't mind dipping my toe in with one of the better ones out there.

No, there's a simple download link, no registering required.

Thanks; I welcome it to my itch.io; even if it is in my Steam backlog for a long time too...
