A first-person narrative game taking place in the mind of Thomas Eilian, an elderly writer diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease – Back Then is now available on GOG with a -10% discount!

In this story-driven title, heavily focused on interactions, puzzles and detective exploration, as a player you find yourself lost in a house, discovering more about Thomas and his family by unlocking new rooms, collectibles, objectives and puzzles. Together, both you and Thomas attempt to discover who they are, listening to the monologues of Thomas and his family, detailing their own struggles and perspectives of the situation at hand.

Traverse through the four seasons of the year, going back and forth between the House and Dreamlike Sequences as Thomas attempts to unravel what his life meant.

Get Back Then now!

Wishlist for now, looks interesting.

I have just bought the game. Sadly there are no offline installers available for download. I hope they will soon turn up, as I absolutely don't want to use Gog Galaxy.

Oh yeah, you're right.

It looks like GOG borked the offline installer generation again. I'll report it.

[EDIT01] They said they'll look into it on Monday.

[EDIT02] Offline installers are available now.

I had no idea the game was made by portuguese! I was already interested in it, but knowing that just made my go forward and buy your game. Thanks for selling it DRM-free on the GOG store.
I wish you success with this game and all your future projects.

Whenever possible, contact someone from the GOG staff and ask them to give you a "Dev" tag. Your forum texts will change color and that way everyone will recognize you as a developer here.

Normally GOG should pay us a discount for having to wait for our game to arrive ....

I'm going to guess the ending to this game isn't a happy one considering the subject matter...

How can GOG give us a discount for something we've already purchased? Also I hope said discount wouldn't come out of the developer's pocket.

I was talking theoretically here. In economics if you pay long before you get the goods you often get the goods discounted and since GOG is basically doing the same here we theoretically should get a discount or some kind of reward as well. Since the devs are innocent here I would not even want any money from them but I would love it if GOG would face some consequences so that they'd take their business more serious as they are doing it right now.
