Stronghold HD, Evil Genius, Sniper Elite: Berlin 1945, and 17 other great classics for as little as $1.79!

There's an old Polish proverb comparing March to a cooking pot full of boiling brew. You never know what's inside exactly and what comes up when. It relates--of course--to Central European unstable weather in the early spring, but why shouldn't we apply the same to our weekend promo? Let's mix stuff up a little with our [url=http://www.gog.com/promo/rebellion_firefly_majesco_weekend_promo_070314]March Gaming Medley. So, what's in the pot? A rich base of strategic classics, a solid serving of Sci-Fi, and some explosive action to make it irresistibly spicy. Whether you're looking for a quick snack, or a full sit-down three-course meal, we've got you covered with our 70% off discount offer. Here's what's on the menu!

Stronghold HD (only $1.79!) and Stronghold Crusader HD (only $2.99) are the High Definition editions of these two "castle sim" classics. Adjusted to modern displays they allow for much better control of the playfield and deliver awe-inspiring view of life-like medieval landscape. With great range of things the player needs to take care of--including establishing a sustainable economy, erecting a keep and defending it from enemy raids, and finally conquering neighbouring estates--both games present a worthwhile challenge to strategy fans.

For strategy fans who appreciate humor, we've got Evil Genius, a real-time mad scientist lair management sim in which you terrorize the world with your inventions. This fantastic title delivers some of the greatest comedic moments you'll ever experience in a game. The characters, the setting, and all of the facilities and gadgets make it the best Bond villain simulator in existence! This weekend, you can start expanding your empire of evil for only $2.99.

Or maybe strategy isn't your thing and you prefer to get right into the middle of action? That can be arranged. [url=]Sniper Elite: Berlin 1945[/url] will drop you off in the middle of the ruined German capital in the final days of World War II. You'll take part in some of the events that ended the greatest war in human history and strike against the remnants of the Nazi forces with surgical precision. Just remember, move slowly, calculate each step with care, and stay low, as you're not the only elite sniper left in Berlin! All that suspense and excitement for only $2.99.

All four games featured above will work both on Windows and Mac OS X PCs.That's just a small taste of what our March Gaming Medley holds in store for you. Be sure to visit March Gaming Medley to see the entire selection of games available 70% off until Tuesday, March 11, at 4:59AM GMT.

Are you following GOG.com on Tumblr, yet? Your enigmatic hint for our upcoming classic release is waiting for you there, in The Week on GOG #5. That's it from us today, have an excellent weekend :-)

Is it just me or even the sales have a sour taste in my mouth?

Meh... :/
Three more grabbed and more than that added to wishlist. That list is like a frigging hydra.

gandalf.nho: Humm, maybe will complete my Empire EArth collection. How's the difficulty of Stronghold? And what's the better: Rogue Trooper or Advent Rising (without being difficult)?
Stronghold's fighting campaign has a really smooth difficulty curve, except for a couple of crazy hard spikes. It's really weird, there are just one or two missions that are brutal, all the rest just follow sequentially and make sense. Not too hard, not too easy. Both Stronghold and Stronghold Crusader are really, really fun, I recommend them if you like a mix between something like SimCity 2000 and Age of Empires 2. Not nearly as epic as either of those two, Stronghold is much more focused on very small regions, but that is always what the gameplay reminded me of.

Well, they are however sold separately from each other. That is Stronghold and Stronghold Crusader are not sold as a single unit.

Evil Genius, good, bad, ugly?
At Last!!!

I can get Stronghold Hd and Stronghold Crusader HD. I was waiting for this opportunity.
A few years ago Ground Control was briefly released as a freebie (I forget where but it was totally legit) and while I loved it the save system killed me. I don't suppose there has been any patching for that? I'd love to play it again but another 2 hour + mission with no save is too rough on the nerves.

Melhelix: Evil Genius, good, bad, ugly?
Good. I occasionally replay it. If you appreciate old school bond-ish atmospheres, it captures it perfectly.

Only flaw is that you get a wide array of traps to build and use against the good guys, but you might end up skipping all this mecanics altogether as there are much simpler and cheaper ways to protect your base. But if you want to toy with traps and trap combinations, of course, you still can enjoy them a lot.
Finally Blood Rayne 1 and 2 on sale!!!! I am tempted for rogue trooper but i played it before so I don't know if I'll like enough to warrant a second playthrough....
Another great promo! At least one of my wishlisted games are usually in a promo. And every time there's a promo, I'll always buy non-wishlisted games too. lol Anyway, thanks, GOG!
hmmm....
Sword of the Samurai...to encourage Tommo for releasing more old Microprose & Humungous Ent. games

If you like RTS with a touch of Settlers thrown in for flavor you can go wrong my friend. I'm biased because I worship this series.
Time to purchase Rogue Trooper.
Finally, I can buy those Bloodrayne games.
