Get captivated by the games in which the designers’ finesse mixes with extreme playability. Today we proudly say: “Merci la France!” and dedicate our Weekly Sale on GOG.COM to great DRM-free titles created or published near the river Seine. Like good wine, they get even better with age - see for yourself!

A Plague Tale: Innocence (-66%) is a stealth game where you follow young Amicia and her little brother Hugo in a heartrending journey through the darkest hours of history.

Heroes of Might and Magic 3: Complete (-75%) is the cult turn-based strategy game set in a fantasy world of Erathia. Play alone or with friends and vanquish all off your opponents!

Of Orcs And Men (-85%) is an action roleplaying game where you lead the revolution of orcs and goblins! Fight your way through a hostile world to reach your objectives.

Check out other cool discounted titles! This Weekly Sale on GOG.COM will last until 20th July, 1 PM UTC. Be aware that the titles from Focus Home Interactive will leave this sale sooner, on 17th July, 1 PM UTC.

If you're in the mood for some old-school gaming, check out Flaose's stream of Twitch channel.

Plokite_Wolf: ...many of these games were made outside France.

Heroes I-IV, Might & Magic I-IX, Shadow Watch etc. were made in the US, Far Cry 1 and the Settlers series are from Germany, Prince of Persia post after the first three was from Canada...
And Pendulo Studios is Spanish.

Thanks for the sale!

Outcast - Second Contact is a Belgium game from a Belgium studio company though. :)

Yes, but it's published by a French company, like a lot of the non-French-developed games that are part of this sale.

For those wondering, most of the games on sale are published by Focus Home Interactive or Ubisoft, both French publishers. For example, the three Runaway, Next Big Thing and Yesterday are from Spanish developer Pendulo Studios, but Focus Home Interactive holds the publishing rights.

Very strange. Little Big Adventure series not on the list.

Indeed, I was not aware Plug-in-Digital is a french publisher!

Good point, but the argument is still somewhat valid since for many older games, the rights have been bought way after the initial release.
And don't get me started about the "near the river Seine" bit.

I wasn't even aware some of these were French. In fact, I was sure Battle Isle was German. Not that it really matters. The only game I remember as distinctly French in origin was Another World, and it's not even in this sale.

French games sale but no Silmarils / Coktel Vision? I'd expect at least Ishar and Goblins to show up (not to mention that seeing Inca and Metal Mutant released here would have been great).

idbeholdME: Thinking about Greedfall. Been a while since I played a bigger RPG and I quite liked all 3 of Spiders' previous games.
Be prepared to hear a lot of things like "Things are about to get dicey!" or the good ole "A bit of poison on the blade!"

Granted, I quite enjoyed the game, and it is definitely Spiders's best game so far, but I really would have liked an option to turn off the party NPC chatter for combat because you'll be hearing those same lines over... and over... and over again.

You do have a good point as well. But honestly if Gog were to take that into account they would have to allocate someone to devote tens of hours looking into this stuff. Better just to pretend those situations don't exist and push the promo.

As for "near the Seine", first one has to define "near". How far does one dev/publisher can be? In the end things get so confusing that I give up and consider "it's in the same country" an acceptable answer.
