The whimsical saga continues!

The Book of Unwritten Tales: The Critter Chronicles, an inevitable sequel to the comedic fantasy point-and-click blockbuster, is now available on GOG.com for only $15.99. That's 20% off, this week only!

If there's one rule that universally applies to all fantasy world, it must be the rule of sagaism. Every successful fantasy story inevitably sprouts into a full-fledged saga, continued over the course of thousands and thousands of pages, game expansion after a game expansion, and movie after movie. And that's a good thing, too! This way we get to revisit our favorite places, check up on our beloved characters, and re-live the amazement all over again. [url=http://www.gog.com/gamecard/the_book_of_unwritten_tales]The Book of Unwritten Tales made fun of everything that we know about fantasy. The sequel just had to happen, if only to make fun of sagaism as well. The creators claim that it's actually a prequel and a stand-alone expansion, but we all know what it's going on here. Sagaism!

The Book of Unwritten Tales: The Critter Chronicles could do just fine by only copying its predecessor. After all--that's what many successful sequels do. The creators, however, made damn sure to give you a plethora of fresh and funny ideas, a cast of new crazy characters, and plenty of previously unseen, beautiful and detailed locations. Point-and-click adventure fans, rejoice!

The game is available for both Windows and Mac, and as of today, the original Book of Unwritten Tales is Mac-compatible as well! You can get it 50% off, for the next 24 hours! That's not all: both games are now available in both English and German versions!

Adventurers! Fantasy fans! Troll rights activists! Grab The Book of Unwritten Tales: The Critter Chronicles now, for only $15.99 on GOG.com!

Hope you will enjoy the game & the release discounts of the whole series and that it is in your mind that finally the German version of The Book of Unwritten Tales (within the next few hours) as well as the MAC versions of both games are available too :)

Great to see those fantastic games on GOG.com.

Greetings from the Nordic Games office! Greetings from snowy Vienna.

Always nice to see a Publisher/Developer staff member post on these forums, so thanks for that

Now then, when can we expect The guild 2 + expansions and Safecracker to come here? :p

Oh just do some pressure (but in a nice and friendly way of course) on our friends from GOG.com especially about The Guild 2 titles - we would be happy to add them ;-) hehe

And thanks a lot for your work! It's a masterpiece. As I've written before: I didn't expect that I would like a recently developed game soooo much! It was pure fun

Terpor: So is this series as good as the Discworld 1 & 2? Also who owns the rights for the Discworld games
Very few games I've played will ever feel the way Discworld did for me, except maybe Blazing Dragons. Possibly because they were both British, which isn't the same as German.

Anyways, we just got the previous one, and now the follow-up is already being released? Feels a bit.. I dunno, rushed somehow. I'm not saying it is, but that's how it seems to me.

Absolutely not. The original game was released in 2009 in german. Legal mumbo-jumbo pushed back the international release waaaaay back.
In 2011 the collector's edition including the original game and the Critter Chronicles was released.

No it's not rushed. It's long overdue.
