Birthday fun and gifts (for you!)
GOG.com 5th birthday celebration continues, and we came up with some fun activities essential to every nerd party in the universe. Namely, we want to play some trivia with you! There will be prizes, of course, because there have to be gifts in a birthday celebration. Since it is our party, you get to keep the gifts! We wouldn't have it any other way. But, just to make it more fun, you'll have to put some effort into getting them. For the next couple of days (let's say: until Sunday), we'll post a daily activity for you. A quiz, a puzzle, some trivia--you know: fun stuff. Each day you'll get a chance to prove your gaming knowledge and familiarity with GOG.com for a chance to get some free games. Our activity of choice today: word search!

UPDATE:
We got word from our support, that some users aren't sure where they should send the answers. Let's pretend that finding the e-mail address on the picture below is a little warm-up exercise before the actual word search. If you can't handle that task, there's probably not much point in wasting your time looking for the 40 titles. And one more thing: we didn't notice it ourselves, but there's actually 41 hidden titles in the picture (apart from the highlighted "FEZ"). That's because one of the longer ones contains another one, shorter. Still--we don't expect more than 40, and that gives you a bit of an advantage.

The torta is a lie?
Found 30. I'm happy with that.
I give up. I'm stuck at 39 + 1 (FEZ) for hours now.
I give. 38 not including Fez. This was a tough S.o.B. Really a lot of fun, but I feel bad that I couldn't get the last two. Will someone that got 40 please PM me the correct answers so that I can sleep tonight. I have already sent in my results (mods take note, I will not cheat).

Should we count one of the pigs as a War-sow? ;)
aha

found it

found the first two three letter ones but was stuck on the abbreviation -- it slipped my mind that that it usually goes by that abbreviation because it wasn't listed on the GOG as that lol

sent

probably too late though :(

Found SESOW though :/
I have no idea why I've just spent an hour on this... fml
C'mon people, use some logic. If you have to FIND 40, and they show you an EXAMPLE, there is no FINDING the EXAMPLE, so obviously it doesn't count.

There are some names in there like rob and mal, maybe we can make up a story with those two doing questionable things with the animals in there... on another thought, let's leave it at that...
I think I might have to join the 39+Fez club ;__;
