Uhm, why not, i'm in for any of these

Ys Origin
Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim

(btw it's gog keys right?)

Thanks.

Anyway i upvoted it since the devs honored their agreement of a steam key from a bundle, in March of 2014 i asked them for a key (since they were saying to contact them for a steam key) and March of this year i finally got a response:

"Sorry for the delay on this reply! One year, oh man, we're really sorry for not responding.The keys we sent to the BaB4 were leaked to a warez forum so we had to shut them down (if not they would probably already be claimed anyway). With good faith, though, we will be sending you a Steam key.

XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX

You can activate this key on Steam. You will be able to play the pre-release version of the International Edition right away (just don't mind the bugs if you do!).

Regards."

So they (or he, don't know how many devs are involved) are cool in my book.

I'm in, thanks!
Prince of Persia 1 should really be here! (well, also the second)
I down't own any of the Ys games. I'd choose I & II first.
(GOG keys, right?)

Ummm, what game are you talking about? Are you, perhaps, talking about Qasir al-Wasat? That's a different beast from Al-Qadim.

I am in thank you for the giveaway.
I would love Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim, it's the only one I haven't played. The series is amazing and of course I shall give Al-Qadim a bit of a boost.

*Uhm er uh er uhhhhh... Dammit, how do i get out of this one...*

Oh Grargar, you're so silly, i knew that, what you don't know is that the Qasir al Wasat developer is also a time traveller and he went back in time to help in the Al Qadim development.

*nailed it*

NOT IN!

Amazing and generous giveaway, mchack! +1 to you and to the Al-Qadim wishlist!
While I'm not in for a prize, I would love to share my #1 nostalgia-fueled wishlist entry:

Companions of Xanth

It might not be the longest or the prettiest game, and the licensing rights might have long since expired, but I was a huge fan of the Xanth novel series growing up and this game is just chock-full of fan-service point 'n click goodness.

mchack: Hi everyone :) Love you guys, I do spend way to much time here in the forums and now I thought it's time for my first real own giveaway :D

What you can get:

Ys I & II Chronicles+
Ys Origin
Ys the Oath in Felghana
Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim


Giveaway context:
Please, I'd love to see a boost on a wishlist I'm eyeing regularly: Al-Qadim: The Genie's Curse
I played the hell out of that one when I was a kid, and I'd love to see it on gog (and play through again) It's an old arpg a little like zelda (though I liked al-Qadim way better having played both) but it's probably just nostalgia speaking :) But then again, isn't nostalgia why we are on gog in the first place? [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Qadim:_The_Genie%27s_Curse]Wikipedia info[/url]

So the rules:
-Give the al-Qadim wish a boost (if you want ;) )
-Tell me you're in and maybe post a game you are very fond of that's old and not on gog yet (post the wishlist link, too)
-Have a good standing in the forums (rep +50, not a scammer, Joindate before May 2015...)
-Post which game(s) you are in for (only enter for yourself if you already own one of the games don't list them as in for)
-Giveaway will last for 1 week, winner(s) will be chosen via random.org on the 15th of july - if the first draw isn't in for all of them there will be a second draw for what's left and so on till all games are gone :)

Hope, we'll have fun (and I hope I'm doing the GA right ;) looking forward to reading your posts ;D

Hey there. Thanks for being generous.
I had never heard of Al-Qadim. That is an unusual setting. Voded just for this reason.
I would love to see Cryptic Comet's games on GOG, like Solium Infernum (http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/solium_infernum)
I am curious about the Ys games. However, even when discounted I find them a bit expensive. I do like JRPGs, and people rave about the series, but I hesitate in taking the jump. If you are willing to roll the die my way, would gladly accept and play any of them, so I'm in.
Posted July 07, 2015
Great giveaway. +1.

In for Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim.

I remember Al-Qadim from back in the day. I preferred the SSI turn-based Gold Box games, but that one was nice too. Voted for it.

Thanks for all of these great suggestions, I'm busy upvoting all of them ;) and reading up on some of them as time permits (work right now)
Just to clarify Yes all the Ys codes are for gog.com of course. Carry on, this is just great :D
Posted July 07, 2015
Oh, and since I mentioned one Monolith-developed game, why not another? <span class="bold">Captain Claw</span>, a great but hard platformer.
Posted July 07, 2015
Thanks for the giveaway McHack! +1 and voted for Al-Qadim: The Genie's Curse.

Please count me in for Ys Origin only since this is the first in the story and I haven't played anything form the Ys universe, but I want to for some time (It's on my *steam*, ops, wishlist for quite a while) :)
