The most dangerous game?

Sir, You are Being Hunted, a procedurally-generated British horror game in which tweed-wearing robots hunt you for sport, is now on GOG.com for $16.99 (15% off the full price) until 9:59 AM GMT on 08 May 2014.

The door opens. A gentleman of the robotic persuasion stands before, puffing gently on an anachronistic pipe. In its hands, a tray: on the tray, a card with subtle off-white coloring. It's tastefully thick--it even has a watermark! On it, the simple, dreaded salutation: Sir, you are being hunted. And with that, the horror unfolds...

In Sir, You are Being Hunted, you visit a procedurally-generated world where robots in tweed hunt you whilst guzzling tea and gobbling crumpets. You, in turn, must run, must hide, and must gather together the supplies to fight back. Even once you're armed, it's hardly a sure thing that you will manage to resist the uncaring hordes of upper-crust automata and survive the deadly hunt, as the brutal AI learns from you and gets tougher as you play.

With a variety of biomes, a smattering of foes, a dash of weapons, and a soupçon of bizarre gadgetry, Sir, You are Being Hunted is, without a doubt, the oddest entry to the survival horror genre in quite some time, but the fine team at the appropriately-named Big Robot, Ltd have brought it all together to make a fantastic experience. Jolly good rummy rot!

Pick up Sir You are Being Hunted for $16.99 (which is 15% off the full price) before 9:59 AM GMT on 08 May 2014. As always, it's 100% DRM-free.

What's the deal with the lack of XP/vista support?

I've noticed a few new games here on GOG that don't list vista in the minimum requirements. I can understand XP support being dropped because of its age, but for this game the specs don't seem to give any indication of why.

Its not a dx10 problem since it needs Dx9 minimum
Its not a 4gb/32bit problem since it needs 2gb min

Have GOG forgot to add vista/XP to the gamecard or is it a case of those systems running the game but not officially supported by the devs?

A very apt , GOG, though I still have to accept that [url=http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=1488#comic]this is the most dangerous game...

How positively sporting of Big Robot, to extend the introductory discount incentive for a week, allowing us to scrape the linings of our pockets for the extra coin we might need to buy the game...

This looks like an awesome game but i will have to check the system req first.
My laptop is ancient T_T.

Impressive that this title made it here! Unfortunately due to alpha stage and performance issues I'll wait until full release but great to have it here nonetheless. :)

It's not in alpha stage.

Oh, I've been wanting to buy this once it's "finished" and want to support their decision to come to GOG. Can't get it today though, spent my "allowance" for this week on some blu rays. Will get it next week.

Fine. Non-full release then.

It is the full release. It's the 1.0 version. When was the last time GOG has released a beta, or title with a different early access scheme? Sir, You Are Being Hunted had a release scheduled for 1st of May.

This looks like a cool game concept, but I'm not convinced the price tag is justified. Just how much content and lasting appeal does the game have? I'd also like to see some more info on the game page, such as available game modes and goals etc.

As of now, I'm vaguely interested, but I think I'll wait for a heavier discount.

Been following this game for two or three years when it was just a blog post and some screen-shots. It's come a LOONG way, and it really is a great game once you get into it. Just know that it is DIFFICULT and requires stealth.

But it is totally worth the price tag. Heck--it was worth this price tag months ago.

Really cool game!
Not so ultra-much varity of features yet, but what is in there is actually quite nice executed!
Like that ame!

I get the impression that this is in the "'Complete' game that's going to be being patched for months to come" category, even if it's no longer technically in early access; I've been interested in it for a long time now, but I think I'll put off buying until I'm confident that it's as good as it's going to get.
