How sad, I already have 90% of these. :P Do I spend too much time here? Guess it's time to make it 100%.

If I may offer my two cents I love Evoland. It's stupid and simple and more or less just a gimmick disguised as a game but for someone who spent countless hours playing the original NES Zelda, the game is totally priceless and a must have for any fossil like myself.

Well at least it's a nice small download, thanks for the info:)
And Driftmoon too, thanks Judas.

Just thought about picking up Omerta: CIty of Gangsters, but luckely I have read some reviews and decided to pass. Sad, to see an fascinating idea badly implemented.

Good call. Love Driftmoon. The top down angle can take a second to get used to but the game was designed for playability with regard to control scheme and length. It actually has a really easy to navigate MOD option that comes with one or two MODS to mess with and help finding or making more of your own.

Very good promo (congratulations by the way).
My first impulse was buying the missing games, only my wallet stopped me.
Well, there are those 12 games that i don't own on GOG and only 1 don't own at all
(Shattered Haven). Well lets see, maybe i am lucky and my next paycheck arrives early.

Nice offer - except that people who own several games on the list already may have difficulties to find 5 additional interesting games. How about reducing the number from 5 to a lower figure depending on the number of games owned already?
Posted September 09, 2013
I'm interested in only 1 game. I think I'll pass on this one.
Posted September 09, 2013
Is there anyway I can buy two of the same game, one being a gift?
Thanks

Which one?

I'm interested in three. Thinking about splitting the package and bill with someone.

What is the save situation like with "The Pit"? I don't mind a hard game but don't make me start over from square one every time I eat it ala Mission Impossible for the NES.

arr0whead: Primordia.
I'm mostly interested in Sword of the Stars: The Pit, Waking Mars, and Stacking. I suppose I can add Alan Wake.

However, I do not own Primordia, and I'm not interested in it.

Does anyone know how I can share a package with someone?? (if it's even possible.)

(I alraeady own Torchlight, Zafehouse: Diaries, Driftmoon, and The Cat Lady.)

Basically, there is no save function. Well, you don't have to finish it in one sitting; the game has autosave, but if you die, then game over: you can't load. That's the essence of roguelikes so you just gotta deal with it. IMO I think the game's way better that way: you can't rush head first everywhere but you gotta plan your every action. Well, unless the game decides to be an asshole and deny you all weapons and ammo, making your run impossible from the get-go. Again, that's the essence of roguelikes though.

It's a roguelike, dude. It kills your save every time you die although they modified The Pit a bit in the DLC. For example, you can bank experience and items in certain rooms that appear about evety 5th floor, IIRC. So it's kind of a hybrid of a classic roguelike save system where death means your save gets erased and check point saves, The item/experience banking rooms are optional.

Hope that helps :)
