There's more than just buying games incredibly cheap to our DRM-Free Time Machine Sale! We're ready to pass its steering wheel (or rather the control console) to YOU. Each game in the sale is offered for a limited time only, and how long we stay in its year is up to you! Each time you see a new game on sale you can vote to either add or subtract 1 second from the timer. Each time you buy a game, you add 3 seconds to the time of it being on sale. We begin with 1983's Zork, bundled with the rest of the Zork Anthology of 6 games in total, for only $1.79. How long will it last on the front page? You'll be the judge. What comes next, as the game of 1984? Let's find out!

Let's take a trip in GOG.com's DRM-Free Time Machine Sale! 30 great games from 1983-2013 will be available up to 90% off, and you get to decide how long each game is on sale. Ready? The technomagical gateway to 1983 opens NOW!

* "Again?", you might ask, "when did they ever do the time warp?". Well, once you embark on a journey through time, all becomes relevant and there's absolutely no guarantee that what you are doing, you are doing for the first time. In fact, that's highly improbable. After all, time isn't linear. It's more like a giant wobbly-bobbly goggy-boggy ball of gaming awesome!

gbaz69: Ok, the test failed, keeping game in cart, the price gets updated when it's timer expires :(.

I hope the .59c game is not Super Hexagon.

The_Blog: A while ago there was a gog Sale, where always 1 deal was up until the limited numbers of copies ran out. And you had to wait for the current number of copies to run out before the next sale would come. One time there was Jack Keane up and basicly NO ONE wanted to buy it so it lasted forever ^^

stg83: You should have started with "Legend has it...". :P

Let's take on our chance to forge our luck and travel back in time to change that comment and make everybody happy to avoid a giant Kraken Apocalypse :3

Not really interested in Space Quest and its ilk. "Geek funny" is one of the kinds of humour that doesn't age well. Though even worse is "geek reference humour" (or "memes"), of the kind one finds too often in indie games now. That stuff is already old before the game is released. :/

Hopefully they bundle Kracken Apocalypse 1+2+3 in a collection so we can pick them all up at a discount price!
Space Quest is THAT bad?

Malek86: I still mantain that people don't really care for EGA graphics and death-happy adventures today.The base price of $10 makes things even worse: at least Zork is world famous and had the lowest price of the bunch yet.
You think that is bad? I get a feeling that we are going to be seeing Police Quest on here too. Now that was a "fail happy" game if ever there was one! Although I don't think it is trying to be evil, like with "I Wanna Be That Guy!" but it sure does like to end the game a lot if you don't do everything exactly right.

I think King's Quest is probably the best of the three "quest" series' (not including Quest for Glory) simply because it seems a little more lenient when it comes to player death. Sure, you can screw up and die, but for the most part, it is lost points rather than lost lives when you make mistakes (once you get past the whole "run off the screen like a big sissy because there's a monster here that will kill you!" thing).
Nice. At least this time, you don't have to buy away games to make the next offer available.
This could be fun.
