Up to 90% off Blackguards 2, Deponia, Blackwell Bundle, Technobabylon, Anna's Quest, and more!



While researching how The Big Adventure Game Drought Οf Τhe Εarly 00's came to its end, scientists recently came across a mysterious puzzle box they dubbed <span class="bold">The Story Inventory</span>. Opening it was no easy task but once someone pointed out that you had to lead the curious Wadjet Eye symbol to the top right corner of the Daedalic maze engraved on the lid, something clicked. This historical unboxing revealed that the games held inside were not just adventure games but did have one thing in common: a thick layer of delicious storytelling. Now it's finally time to share the contents with the rest of the world in a Weekend Promo that's not only rich in story but also heavy on discounts!


If you are among Aventuria's most vile mercenaries, taking up the occasional jailbreak job, engaging into shady politics, and killing for money should be your bread and butter. But Blackguards 2 is also about making your own (im)moral choices as you guide your companions on turn-based battlefields, customize their gear, and even use the environment to your advantage.

It's 2087 and this brave new world is irreversibly addicted to Trance, a virtual reality world which overshadows the mundane "meatspace" that we know. But when three broken people stumble upon a layered conspiracy that eats on the foundations of this Technobabylon, they will need to confront their demons and tackle challenging puzzles in order to reach the truth or a personal closure.



There are dozens of amazing stories waiting to be unleashed from <span class="bold">The Story Inventory</span>, going for up to 90% off. The engraved symbols of storytelling masters Daedalic and Wadjet Eye Games on its lid guarantee their quality and games like the Deponia series, Dead Synchronicity, the Blackwell saga, Anna's Quest, and Primordia, stand as the best scientific proof! The promo will last until February 16, 4:59 AM GMT.

Vythonaut: You may want to visit Technocrat's website too, as there is a free game to download and play. ;)

IAmSinistar: Huh, I didn't know they also made The Perfidious Petrol Station. Had that for ages but never fired it up, maybe I should.
It leaves me wondering why it isn't on GOG already. Here is a GOG wishlist entry for it, although it seems that currently there isn't too much interest: http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/nancy_the_happy_whore_and_the_perfidious_petrol_station

HypersomniacLive: [...] trust me people, Vythonaut never was nor is a p&c fan.
That's a true fact! :P

Having not played it yet, I can't confirm if the game quality is up to snuff or not. It's also been bundled a few times if I recall, so there may not be much financial motivation for GOG to add it. They seem to only go for previously bundled games if there is demand or prestige involved.

Ah OK, I didn't know it was previously bundled - I'm not very informed about the various bundle anyway as I don't keep an eye on them. :)

I don't follow bundles anymore either. But I have the game on both ShinyLoot and Desura, so I'm guessing at least one of those came from a bundle. :)

catpower1980: Looks like St-Valentine is coming earlier on GOG......
Never heard of it ;)


Any opinions on Dead Synchronicity and Valhall hills? (seems to be the odd one out genre wise).

It's an FPS where you play a fat flying baby who uses archery skills to craft different relationship types. ;D

If you are into some thought-provoking, post-apocalyptic despair, Dead Synchronicity will be right up your alley. Very well-made adventure all-around with just one catch: it needs a sequel (or two) very badly. Apparently, the devs think so too - fingers crossed it will come sooner rather than later.

tokisto: Buy Primordia fellow GOG'ers. Better, buy all the W. Eyes games, no remorse.
I'm waiting for Technobabylon Linux version come to buy it.

muntdefems: I second your advice. :)

As for Technobabylon and Linux, it being an AGS game should make it easy to be played with the native AGS engine (provided you can extract the contents of the installer, that is: innoextract usually works).
Thanks for the advice, I don't know this trick. W. Eye announced that the Linux version would come, but not when...
Nice promo! I decided to grab technobabylon and resonance. I wonder, when i have time to play those games.

Many people says. that technobabylon is good cyberpunk game!

Technobabylon will play just fine under Wine without having to extract files and all that :) Speaking from experience, no tricks required to get AGS games running :)
Memoria, Chains of Satinav and Whispered World are temping, but the native linux versions are missing and more important with Daedalic insisting on regional pricing for those (0,20€), I'll just get some other games here :)

And all of them gay! ;-)

But the truly important questions are: Does it support the XBox 360 controller? And can it be played in a window? =P
