Fight heresy the old-school way.

Inquisitor is a game that will take you on a thrilling journey through a dark medieval low-fantasy world and satisfy your hunger for old-school RPG, and it's available for digital pre-order on GOG.com for only $11.99--that’s 20% off the full price, only during preorders!

Dark times have fallen onto the once-peaceful land of Ultherst. As the prophet Ezekiel foretold: Famine, Plague, and Death came to harvest the souls of the sinners and the innocent alike. In this time of hardship more and more people started to succumb to the Devil's whispers. Heresy and worship of dark powers grow stronger and more blatant with every new follower of the demonic path. This evil must be rooted-out and purged with fire. And you--out of all of the people faithful to the true religion--have been selected to restore God's holy law and order as the Inquisitor.

Inquisitor is a truly old-school cRPG with open-ended gameplay, a large world to roam freely, a plethora of items and spells at your disposal, a deep and absorbing story, and hundreds of lines of dialogs. Get Inquisitor now with 20% pre-order discount and gain immediate access to the chest of goodies that contains treasure such as a full game soundtrack, a collection of 68 artworks, the ominous Revelation of Ezekiel, and a full-fledged Inquisitor novel! The pre-order period will last until Wednesday, September 5 at 10:59 AM GMT.

If you're not yet busy rushing to pre-order this item of old-school excellence, take a moment and listen what Martin Kovar of CINEMAX--the studio that put more than 10 years into developing Inquisitor--has to say about his game.

Thanks :) But I know it so well! I have seen the whole series on DVD so many times!
See, I REALLY should have guessed.
I'll watch this one again now anyway :)))
Looks like a solid release. I'm interested!
FINALLY!!!
Not a fan of torture in general, so... :-P
I love this kind of game and will totally buy it in the future (when I finish the Baldur's Gate series and have money). Thanks a lot GOG!
Question, how many new publishers has GOG.com signed up this year? I think it's a dozen or so, but I've already lost count...

deadfolk: Hundreds, you say? As many as that?
Well, Martin (one of the developers) said game contains 1.5 million of words. It´s at least as thick as a good novel. I also heard (about the original Czech version, which was released back in 2009) that story is incredibly good and on par with Baldur´s Gate when it comes to complexity. Also, very long (+ 100 h).

Leroux: Interesting! Is this comparable to Divine Divinity, in the way it blends action RPG mechanics with story and dialogues? Does it maybe even have more depth in that regard? Or is it rather on the side of Diablo 2, that is more focused on hack and slash and looting than story and choices?
I'd like to know these things too, particularly if there's a playable demo.

Leroux: Regarding this week's releases and announcements I guess noone has any reason for complaints. :)
Agreed, at least for people into nerdy dark fantasy.

hahaha :)

From the gameplay videos it looks like the walking around and the exploring is very Falloutish, or rather Diablo-like if you count the monsters moving and chasing you when they see you.

Graphics are Falloutish/Diabloish too, which is good in my book, although animations could see some improvement (not a problem IF combat plays right, fluidly).

You know you don't have to insult Inquisitor.

Had already read your review, which was helpful, part of the reason I still want a playable demo: I'm interested, but can't be convinced so easily.

How´s that an insult? (Hope that was an irony on your part) Anyway, you played it, right? So tell us something more about it yourself. I´ve only read the novel, which was really well written.

I was just trolling. My point is: BG's story is actually quite poor and overrated. It's told fairly well, but that is just about it's only strong point. Inquisitor's story is objectively far better.
Cool musics. Note that there are 38 tracks in the soundtrack.

1.5 million words is almost as think as the total of the A Song of Ice and Fire series released so far - 1.77 million words for the 5 books which average over 1000 pages each.
