The Spring Site Update brought the new downloader, private messaging, various improvements to the overall GOG.com experience, and now we give all our users a free game!

[url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/dragonsphere]Dragonsphere - as that's another free game in our catalogue - is a classic point-and-click adventure game by MicroProse. Twenty years ago, your father King Of Gran Callahach, has imprisoned the evil sorcerer Sanwe in a Dragonsphere. Now the spell is waning, and you as the new king in your first and the most important quest have to stop Sanwe from taking his revenge. The story seems very typical - you as a hero have to save the world once again - but you cannot be more wrong about it as that's just the beginning. Discover what the real plot is all about traveling through beautifully drawn locations and solving challenging yet clever puzzles. Set yourself for a great journey, after all it's totally free on GOG.com!

Darling_Jimmy: I wish I could share your excitement about the new Windows only downloader but—instead—I will just quietly accept the free game as a consolation prize.
Apparently it works with a recent wine. I haven't tried yet.

That's aight. You won me back with "free game." Can I use the new PM feature?

When will GOG.com sell time? I have plenty of games to play now, and would like to purchase more, but I don't have enough time. If you could make time available in 4-24 hour chunks, that would be most helpful! I have some work to do today, but would like some more time to play classic games on my lunch break. Do you foresee this happening soon? ^_^

Also, thank you for the updates and the free game.

I don't know. Can you? Mouse over a post and click on the orange PM button.

I can receive messages but I don't see an orange PM button. I don't see any colour PM button for that matter. Screenshot, perhaps?

It's right next to the ONLINE/OFFLINE notice next to a person's Avatar.

That's exactly how I replied to his message in a PM. I've got my eye on you... ¬_¬
