ThuG_PoeT: Hi there. Can you please let me know where you managed to find this list of countries?
In this case, the list was at the bottom of a recent GOG newsletter:

Thanks. So if I want to get these 2 games, will it be enough to just use a VPN from a country not on this list? or I need to do something else?

I think from a country that's not on that list is enough.

Afaik, GOG keys don't have regional locks, so you could ask someone to buy the game as a gift for you too.

Interestingly, Gog has a reaction time of two weeks regarding BloodRayne, but more than 18 months for Rise of the Triad and Mortal Kombat. I wonder, what´s the reason for that.

"Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3" is still indexed.

Will automatically fall off in 2025, if Warner does not get into it and makes another try and invest money into deletion.
I do not see that happening.

Alekhine's Gun is region-locked in Germany, as it is on Steam. The reason for this is the inclusion of swastikas in one mission.

Which wouldn't be a problem anymore with the Sozialadäquanz-Klausel, introduced in 2018, but I guess for the Klausel to be applied the pre-2018 game in question would have to be submitted at the ratings board again, which unfortunately is also tied to a fee not every publisher is willing to pay.

And in Germany.

It's a running theme with these AO games. They're either blocked entirely or, if they come with Unrated-DLCs, those will be inaccessible.

This is ridiculous GoG is doing this. They themselves are not in those countries, it should be up to the individual to comply with the local laws where they are.
