Apparently, there are a bunch of strategy games on sale here on GOG, for no apparent reason.

Sacrifice
Overlord
Theme Hospital
Startopia
Evil Genius
Tropico Reloaded

Most seem to be 50% off. Overlord and Evil Genius are 60% off.
No indication that it is connected to the current Irish sale. Perhaps one of the blues can enlighten us?

EDIT: Trying to check out gives you "DK special promo" as the explanation. Whatever that might be.

LOL ! Why wasn't I informed ? :/


EDIT: There's nothing about any sale on the pages of any of the games... Could it be a permanent price drop ?

It's displayed like a sale (Orange price tag, "You save" etc.) so that seems a bit unlikely.
Seems more like a sale that went up too soon or something.

Any idea what DK stands for? Because when I go to the checkout screen it mentions "DK Special Promo 17/03/14"

Dungeon Keeper is the only thing that comes to mind....

Which is not one sale... strange.

Shit, I have all of those.

Nice heads up Aemenyn. Good eyes.

Weird, wonder if they're priming another sale on the side? Looks like a good time to finally grab Overlord for myself, at least.

I'd love Overlord but I don't have the OS for it. :-(
Unless turning down all the settings won't totally ruin it. Anyone here ever play it?

EVERYONE BUY SACRIFICE !!!

There were a couple on sale last week too.
I've made a point of using the 'discounted' filter on the browse page, since no more than 20 will show on the front page :)

Of course Theme Hospital is on sale. I just bought it last week. Grumble, grumble. :)

That my friend is a physical law of the Universe! Someone with a D.A. avatar should know that! :P 90% of the games I own here I bought a few hours before they went on sale.

Oh, I know that, and I would just like to provide a relevant quote:

“One of the things Ford Prefect had always found hardest to understand about humans was their habit of continually stating and repeating the very very obvious.”
