The color of darkness.


<span class="bold">Scanner Sombre</span>, a claustrophobic experience set inside a network of tunnels devoid of light, is now available for pre-order, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 20% discount and the studio's previous games included as bonuses: Darwinia, Uplink, Multiwinia, and DEFCON.

You wake up in a cave that echoes with the danger of the unknown. Confused and helpless, your only hope is to use your scanning device to explore the surrounding darkness and find an exit. With each beam, the caverns turn into a tapestry woven by colored dots. With each beam, the horrible truth comes alive.

The offers will last until May 3, 2:00 PM UTC.
If you already own any of these bonus games on GOG.com, please <span class="bold">contact our support team</span> to request a giftable game code.

Glad to see another not-prison-architect game from Introversion. As with their earlier games, the visual style looks the business!

Needs a Linux version, of course.

Looks weird, are the caves randomly generated or something?

Anyone have any info on the lack of Linux is it a never happening or a delay?

This game looks very interesting. Unfortunately it's not so much of a good deal when you already own all the bonus games, especially with the lack of Linux support.

So, the offer lasts until May 3rd, but the game releases tomorrow?
That would actually be pretty sweet, since then it wouldn't be so much a pre-order as an early (somewhat informed) purchase. I'm not sure it works like that, but if it does, I approve :)

From the looks of it, it does. That's why I'm liking these promos much more than regular pre-orders since there's enough time after release to make an informed decision if you were planning to get the game early anyway, plus getting additional good games is a much better deal than what pre-order bonuses typically offer.

Yes, it is a good offer as well.
They should probably put a bit more emphasis on this (since it puzzled me, at least) - and having a pre-order bonus available for a few days after release seems way more convenient for the customer.
I suppose early purchases are almost as "valuable" as pre-orders nowadays, since massive price-drops within a fairly short period of time are to be expected. Once you decide to wait a bit, you might as well wait for a seventy percent discount ;) If the game is actually any good, it shouldn't be that necessary to urge customers to buy games on good faith alone.

The game looks awesome, and I like Introversion, but the lack of Linux support is concerning.

If it comes to Linux, I'll definitely add it to my Introversion collection (which includes all of their previous games).
