To embark on an exciting journey into the unknown, to meet magical characters and explore fantasy lands, to experience worlds filled with incredible adventures. Hard not to agree that all of these are one of the essential gaming goals that allow us to take - sometimes much needed - break from reality.

And in order to do so we’ve launched a Midweek Sale focusing on just that! Check out dozens of Classic Adventures titles with deals as high as -90% available until November 13th, 11 PM UTC. Among many, this is what we have in store:

Legend of Grimrock (-80%)
Dungeon crawling role playing game with an old school heart mated with modern execution. As a group of prisoners you are sentenced to certain death by exile to the secluded Mount Grimrock for vile crimes you may or may not have committed. Unbeknownst to the captives, the mountain is riddled with ancient tunnels, dungeons and tombs built by crumbled civilizations of days long past. If you ever wish to see daylight again and reclaim freedom, your ragtag group of prisoners must form a team and descend through the mountain, level by level.

Dragon's Lair Trilogy (-60%)
Putting “classic” into the Classic Adventures. This bundle offers 3 incredible adventures in the form of fantasy action adventure titles famous for their Western animation-style graphics and interactive movie-like gameplay.

In Dragon's Lair, you play the heroic Dirk the Daring, a valiant knight on a quest to rescue the fair princess from the clutches of an evil dragon!

Space Ace will have you take control of Ace - Defender of justice, truth, and the planet Earth who is being attacked by the evil Commander Borf.

And in Dragon’s Lair II: Time Warp you will be once again leading Dirk on a perilous quest, this time to save Princess Daphne from being forced to marry wicked, evil wizard Mordroc.

No One Lives in Heaven (-75%)
Have you ever wondered what happens to the inhabitants of a game world when you have finished it? Well, you can now check it out in this action, role-playing exploration game. In No One Lives in Heaven, the NPCs have been left alone for years and you are the first person to meet them again. With a lot of humor and a pinch of philosophy, you'll explore how the characters of old games would fare today if they were abandoned. All your decisions have consequences and influence the course of history.

Demon's Winter (-75%)
And if turn-based fantasy title from 1986 sound more like your type then jump into Demon’s Winter, where you must search the lands and seas for spells to trap the demon-god Malifon and undo his mystical curse. Entertaining and very well-written, if not revolutionary.

Wizards & Warriors (-50%)
An RPG as vast as legend itself and available only on GOG. In this fantasy adventure, in an enchanted medieval realm known as the Gael Serran, an evil Pharaoh has overcome a curse and returned to wreak havoc. Only the legendary Mavin Sword - a blade forged of twin metals, one cursed by evil, the other blessed by the divine - has the strength to bring his defeat.

All of those and many more adventures can be found in our Classic Adventures sale. Sharpen your blade, gather your potions and embark on magical journeys!
A sale still with the old format style... but sadly with the same little discounts on Activision and Interplay games. These companies don´t want my wallet.
As an adventure fan I was excited to see the title, only to find out that this sale has very little to do with adventures, even less classic adventures.

Most of the games are not adventure games, and the hyped Dragon's Lair is indeed a famous release, but even in its own time many argued that it's not an adventure game.
Was a human responsible for this selection, or was it an AD (Artifical Dumbness), adding games based on tags: Classic and Adventure? If it was a human, I would kindly like to ask what your definition of Adventure is, GOG. ;-)
I'll pay a higher price for Dragon's Lair Trilogy, if they give me the option to turn off the control shuriken at the bottom center of the screen.

GOG.com: Midweek Sale: Classic Adventures up to 90% off
I don't know, if I would count a game from 2020 (Xuan-Yuan Sword VII) as classic...
But maybe the "classic" refers to the classic GOG move, to put a DLC (Xuan-Yuan Sword VII Art Collection) on sale, but not the base game (https://www.gog.com/en/game/xuanyuan_sword_vii).

No One Lives...
HUH?!
...in Heaven
oh...
That's a pretty random selection for a sale titled Classic Adventures. There's RPGs and all sorts in there. In fact the RPGs outnumber the adventure games, of which I count 5 (counting Zork Anthology as one product).

Nope. It's the new one. I've noticed that sometimes an old layout is loaded in a few minutes after sale's launch, but after a while it's replaced with the new one.

Perhaps GOG uses old format to make a final check if the list of games and prices are fine – and only then they launch a new page, which is impossible to read also for them :D

It's certainly something that also happened to the same game in another recent sale.
*looks at list in post #11*

*sigh*

The protagonist(s) going on an adventure isn't what makes a game's genre an "adventure", let alone a "classic adventure"...
