Absolute Tactics: Daughters of Mercy
Card Shark

Thanks!
And now let's hope for some good-old-games-focused event and sale :)

Even a reverse image search on this deals title image doesn't bring up any results about what game it's from. A single result is all you get, which happens to point to this deal on GoG, and I'm starting to get dizzy because of this...

Can anyone shed some light on the game depicted in said image, please ?.

Why not specify the number of units sold? We GOG customers would be very interested in seeing those numbers.

It's not a screenshot of any game, just regular promo graphics GOG prepares for periodic sales - this time they are computer components in spring colors.

Could you guess why nobody ever specified the "numbers of units sold" in any random sale event on any platform?

Great!, thanks for the reply and enlightening me that the imaginary game I thought looked very appealing, actually doesn't actually exist. :)

Now counting things added to wish lists and demos as wins! Well done! Just to note though, my wish list is mostly games I would have brought, but will not now…

not a fan of this "on Metacritic" repetition, I wouldn't like it to become standard
Deus Ex: GOTY Edition link is broken
NORCO's line is completely messed up

Why? Unless it's some reason that doesn't have to do with the game (political or something) Metacritic is a pretty trusted source. I'd also check user scores and read those to see what regular people thought of these games. I don't care what IGN and other mags have to say, they don't count for the majority of gamers playing a game. On Metacritic, you get a wide variety of opinions to sort through.

Again, Metacritic proves to be absolutely untrustworthy.

ELEX 2 should be way above 64., especially compared with other higher scores.

Finally, fulfilled some old wishlist items: Anodyne2, (A 2/3D genre defining action/adventure game) Ocean's heart, (The other Zelda-like) Foregone, (A great-looking metrovania, let's hope it plays like one!) and Filament a nice sci-fi puzzler, so for a little over $30, and I'd say it was a pretty good haul!

Too bad Elex2 isn't on sale, but a great sale as always!

I don't like the format. A bunch of games I know nothing of but the title and the metacritic listed in a cold way line by line? It would make more sense to implement it in the store page, but that would also include negative metacritics. If this was default for good mc values, the lack of its display would mean a bad score. Oh well, or the lack of a mc score.

Metacritic s a trusted source? On metacritic there was 100/100 best game ever made reviews of cyberpunk at release. It’s so corrupt it’s untrue. In terms of user reviews, it’s either best ever/worst ever, but is far better than industry brought and paid for reviews. Just to note, there is an open critic:
https://opencritic.com/
Couldn’t telly you how corrupt that site is, but the cyberpunk scores seem a bit more reasonable, if still pretty high.
