LOSE YOUR MIND. EAT YOUR CREW. DIE.

Sunless Sea, a tale of terror, loot and discovery, is available for Windows and Mac OS X, now DRM-free on GOG.com with a 10% launch discount.

In Sunless Sea, insanity ensues. Captain, you will embark on your very own steamship, collect your crew, and explore an immense sea of discovery, mystery, betrayal, loneliness, death, insanity, death, insanity. FTL hears The Call of Cthulhu - you will die gruesomely, but how you die is up to you. Your children will also die, your grandchildren will die, and their grandchildren will die too. How they live, how they die, and what stories will be told of your family legacy - that's up to you. Over 200,000 written words of plot, backstory and secrets beckon you towards the old black ocean, where immeasurable loot awaits. Dare you sail her?

Sunless Sea is getting amazing reviews already, so just try your best not to eat your crew on GOG.com! The 10% launch discount will last for one week, until 4:59 PM GMT.

Joke?

Slightly more on topic, I notice this thread has gotten rather quiet. Does no one like talk about cooking? =)

It's a good game, but bloody hard, especially with the map randomization.

Yep, been playing it all weekend and I started playing Fallen London as well for additional Sunless Sea stories :D
Just bought it. Some years ago, I all but gave up on buying games because of the likes of Steam and others with their strict `chain` DRMs. In fact, I saved quite a bit of money for a while as the drought months went by...

But then appeared GOG and I must have given them 5X anything i`ve bought from elswhere now. Keep up the good work, guys. I will always support GOG as long as it stays like this, giving people a non-chain alternative.

Discussing how to dry roast shit? Well, I thought it was funny. The fact that you took the time to insert a link about how to dry roast coffee beans only turned my slight chuckle into a rousing guffaw.

No, I take my shit-roasting very seriously.
I usually dislike adventure games but this one is something special. Permadeath in itself is not mandatory since it can be switched off in options. This game is about discovery and mostly about stories and news that you discover in your voyages. There are monsters there that hunt you and sometimes you will be killed by them especially if you have lights on in the deep dark which will attract more monsters. If you run out of supplies you can go hunt them and use the meat from them as food. The longer you are in the dark the more terrified your crew gets which makes strange things happen (shoreleave helps with that). There is so much story content in this game and its getting new story updates so that its definitely worth the price. The only catch is that if you don't like slow games then this is not for you.
I personally died three times already in this game on permadeath mode and im still getting hooked on this game. I hearthly recommend it.

“The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.”

This is exactly my case.If somebody told me around four years before that I´ll own so many games in 2015 I´d have laughed at that person...
...but I like how things are going on! The giant backlog doesn´t stun me (like what others are experiencing), it encourages me!

Good to know. Seems there are many like us! GOG has captured an area of Gaming that was sadly missing and have captured the people who are willing to give money for that freedom!
I'd really like to try this, the atmosphere is dense as a black syrup, but I have so many games "at play" right now and the reviews are really mixed, from "it is awesome" to "it is repetitive, grindy and boring"... a demo would be great (yes, I know about Fallen London but the games aren't the same, there's a reason one is free and second is sold)

*throws coins at screen!* (aka +1)
This led me to trying out Fallen London. It's fun.
