Startrail: The Ziggrat giveaway seems to have regional differences. From what I heard, Austria/Germany had Corridor 7 given free regardless of number of games owned.

RACosteau: Makes GOG-sense. 6 games* weren't available in Germany and counted as "owned/in cart". Corridor as the 7th game was free.
Then 3 additional games including Deadly Dozen made that one free too.

*BloodRayne: Terminal Cut, BloodRayne 2: Terminal Cut, BloodRayne: Terminal Cut Bundle, BloodRayne Absolute Bundle, Killing Time, Requiem: Avenging Angel
That's interesting. I didn't know the reason for that. Very insightful!
First of all: thank you for your great work here!

I was comparing my order history with your list and i noticed some things

-I seem to have not seen SOMA as giveaway on 28/12/18

About Permanently Free Games I can say

-AKALABETH : WORLD OF DOOM is in mine account since 24/12/2014
-Dragonsphere was free until 31/12/2015. I redeemed it on 03/03/13. I have no idea how long it was free

Are you also taking into account the movies given away?
27/08/14
TPB AFK: The Pirate Bay Away from Keybord and The Art of Playing

22/11/14
The Gamers: Director's Cut

Last thing, I have Spelunky added on mine acount on 18/06/16 but I've no idea where it come from!
Thank you for the posts

Hiya! :) A quick google search will turn out references for the SOMA give away
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/gog-is-giving-away-for-free-soma-for-a-limited-time/

Thanks for the new start dates for Akalabeth :) I'll update that.

I actually took Dragonsphere out when it became not free, since it's technically not permanently free anymore. But maybe for accuracy, I should leave it there and update the description accordingly.

Nope movies are not covered. There were too brief, so I decided to eschew them.

Spelunky was given if 5000xp (approximately 5 USD) was spent during 2016 summer sale :) See this post

Thank you for Spelunky!

About SOMA I was meaning I can not find it in the List of Temporary Free Games - Giveaways Part 1 and 2 (sorry I'm using google translator)

About Dragonsphere I saw Warsow still on the list so i thought that Dragonshper should be too.

Thank again for the great work.

Looks like the game is back. Perhaps there was an error in database or something?

By all accounts it is not really a DLC, as it is listed as a separate game in your GOG library, plus it is reportedly standalone to play, though it seems you must have Gothic 2 Gold Edition to purchase ... but not sure, as I already had that ... it certainly lists it as required.

Tried purchasing the Archolos extra without having Gothic 2, and GOG wouldn't let me buy it.

I do not have Gothic 2 and the page failed to let me buy it for inclusion in my gog account, but allowed me to buy it as a gift code.
