Spirits keep their secrets too.

The Blackwell Bundle, a fantastic collection of four old-school point-and-click investigative adventures with a supernatural twist, is available on GOG.com 60% off until Thursday, October 11 at 10:59 GMT.

Meet Rosangela Blackwell, a New York writer/detective, as she takes on four mystery-packed cases in the company of her pale and transparent partner, Joe Mallone. "Pale and transparent? What's up with that?"--you might ask. Well, don't be alarmed, but Mr. Mallone died in 1930s. Luckily for him Mrs. Blackwell proves to be a medium and not only does she see the poor old chap, but also can easily communicate with him. Much to her own dismay--at first--as Joe turns out to be quite irritating for someone without a pulse. They, however, share one common passion: meddling in the many mysteries of the city that never sleeps.

In The Blackwell Bundle we follow the exploits of the unlikely detective duo as they investigate four cases balancing on the edge between crime and paranormal happenings. In the first chapter of our story, The Blackwell Legacy, we witness the beginning of an unwitting partnership, as Rosa Blackwell learns about her psychic heritage, meets the ghost of Joe Mallone, and stops a series of mysterious suicides. Blackwell Unbound acts as a prequel to the series and tells the story of Rosa's grandmother, Lauren Blackwell, who preceded her granddaughter as Joe's medium mystery-solving partner. Back in our times Blackwell Convergence pits Rosa and Joe against a tortured soul of a murdering lunatic, that's been haunting the Big Apple for decades. Finally, Blackwell Deception puts our detectives in harm's way as a sinister villain manipulates them for his own dark purposes. All of the stories feature top-notch writing, remarkable voice-acting, classic pixel-art graphics, and a multitude restless spirits.

Let Joe Mallone lead you and Rosa into the unknown realm of spirits roaming the ever-busy streets of New York in The Blackwell Bundle, 60% off--that's only $5.99 for the next 24 hours!

Starmaker: Do you have Emerald City Confidential? If it did went offline-activation after PlayFirst decided to wrap up PC game business, then there's a chance we'll see it.

Arrgh that's yet another creepy DRM scheme.

(Actually, I hoped to hear from someone who bought it directly from PlayFirst. But thank you for replying.)

StingingVelvet: I know I bought these but can't remember where or when. Fuck was it a bundle? Arg.

Starmaker: GOG is the only site that bundles the latest feature-length game, Deception. If you bought the bundle elsewhere and didn't get Deception standalone, you don't have it.
Interesting. Is the new one good?

Yes. I only have two complaints: Rosangela's sprite used to be cuter in Convergence, and a particularly awesome scene gets resolved too quickly (so much wasted pontential).
well i guess i will be buying this now. i have bought way too many games lately got, damn you and your sales!!
Already got this with the Indie promo a while back, totally worth it.

Get it.
I couldn't have resisted. It's on my virtual shelf right now..

Telika: Yes. Actually, I just re-bought them here for the soundtracks, after having harrassed Wadjet for them to re-realease them (they used to sell them on their site but not anymore) and waiting for other news about them (they seem to aim at some proper distribution, but, I'm not sure if the project is still going on). It's one of my very favorite videogame soundtrack. Very jazzy, and very fitting.
Huh, I was going to skip the games, but since the soundtrack is available here, I'll grab 'em.

Uh. Steam? It's as good of a DRM scheme you're going to get when it comes to this game. :p
Loved the games the first time round, still love them now. Totally worth the current price if adventure games and these kinds of art appeal. They felt a bit short to me, but I still had fun with the replays. Particularly enjoyed the second one, but that seems to be a debatable topic in the community. xD
I saw this and said to myself, "All right! A sale!"
It wasn't until I logged in that I was informed that I already own these games from GOG.
Along with about five other things I didn't know I owned from here.

I really need to pay attention to what I buy from you, GOG.
Will take a chance on this, good price. Cheers GOG!
Got the first three from an indie bundle but this is hard to pass up
Okay bought this for the 4th game, hope they're good. Gemini Rue was awesome but I know that was a different dude.

Also like Gemini Rue is it best to play these without voice acting?

Don't know what your problem was with Gemini Rue's voice acting - I've liked it in all the Wadjet titles I've played.

I thought it was fucking terrible, so I played with written dialogue instead. Maybe that was just me.
