And it was bundled before, too.

Knights of Honor is 1.5€ on Steam, is it worth it? I've never played one of those grand management games since they demand too much dedication and are way too much complicated for my simpleton mind, this one however looks neat and simple since it looks more of a normal rts game (but i can be wrong).

Edit: Nevermind, was trying to buy but i already have it on my library from india gala x.

madth3: Sky Taxi: Top Secret is the Game Giveaway of the day. 15 hours left to get to it and install it.
Different from the last title, this one is truly completely DRM and Installation free - The setup open a Winrar extractor where you place a folder and the game extracts into it. That's it.

The previous one did exactly the same, it just came with a fancy wrapper that also created a desktop shortcut - if you paid attention during "installation" you'd noticed that all the installer did was extract the files into the folder you had specified ;-).

Well it placed itself in my start menu with an uninstall link as well, seems legit (and not like the main comment said).
This one was just as advertised :P

Well as mentioned before, it's only to make it daily so the devs won't lose too much, the same as amazon free app of the day or others on iphone/android, it is for marketing purposes (and not very different then a sale on desura or a freebie on gog).
What I'm unsure of (and I asked for your opinion), is weather repacking the installer/installation and offering it after the giveaway is over for a select few (aka not on FS platforms) is legit or not for such "free for a limited time" titles (not for gog)?

They may as well offer it as a time limited demo, as its pretty much what it is - much like those apps which which you get from similar giveaways (or even worse the ones where you pay for 6 month or 12 month license )

Looks like GOG's got a new special promo coming soon:
"GOG.com launch “Mutator Promo”, allow gamers to spin the wheel on up to 3 mystery “mutator” games with each highly-discounted 3-game purchase.

Their Mutator Promo allows gamers to take their chances and pick up three mystery “mutators”, each one for $2. To take part in the sale gamers need to pick 3 games from the promo lineup discounted up to 85% including Theme Hospital for $1.49, Cannon Fodder for $1.19, Leisure Suit Larry: Love for Sail! for $1.49, Outlast for $4.99, Broken Age for $12.49, Long Live the Queen for $1.99. This, in turn, gives them access to 3 “mutator” games – mystery titles that will be revealed after checkout. The $2 mutator could be anything from a $5 game to a $45 one!

The lineup of both regular games and mutators will change completely after the first 48 hours. The Mutator Promo will last for the next 6 days with an entirely new lineup of both regular games and mutators introduced after the first 48 hours."

While I did love the Insomnia sale, that Lucky sale was what finally made me join GOG after years of lurking. I thought it was neat.
