Today we welcome yet another batch of cool oldies in our store. Here are three classic titles brought back to you thanks to Ziggurat Interactive’s effort:

Bop'N Wrestle (-33%) is a sports game where you get to join the mayhem of professional wrestling and climb into the ring to fight 10 meanest, toughest opponents.

Cyclemania (-33%) is a racing game where you drive one of six available motorbikes along five challenging mountain roads at speeds of over 150 miles per hour.

Deadly Dozen Pacific Theater (-33%) is a squad-based FPS set in an unforgiving theater of WW2. Here only stealth, a cool head, and your M1 may buy you one more day.

Enjoy your time with these awesome classics. Until 11th December 2020, 2 PM UTC, all three above games are available on GOG.COM with 33% discounts.
I've never heard of any of these games, but I'm glad that there are devs like Ziggurat bringing them back.
Edit: Sorry, never mind. Was testing those GOG tags.

Thanks, GOG, for Ziggurat classics! In this case I'll definitely wait a while for a better price.

Isn't it funny how spoiled we've become by all the permanent sales?
Back in the beginning of GOG, when there were only two price points for games ($9,99 and $5,99), today's offers would have been instabuys for most of us (any interest in the offered games assuming, of course).
Great stuff ... though I will wait for a better price for Deadly Dozen ... two dollars less and it would have been an instant buy. It's a fine line between pleasure and pain.

DreamedArtist: I have a feeling we will get WW2 G.I here in the next batch of games from Ziggurat. Maybe don't want to saturate there releases with too much shooters and spread them out.
One can but wait in hope.

I guess the market changed a bit. With cheap bundles, giveaways, growing users' libraries and backlogs, with agressive discounts in other stores...

With such a price points I'd never be interested in these 3 games, I guess. I don't know, perhaps it's a problem for devs and publishers, but quite a big part of my library are titles I'd never purchase for $5.99 or $9.99, because of a few reasons. With deep discount I'm convinced to buy just to try the game, to play it some day later, to own a DRM Free copy (owned on Steam or CD/DVD), to support a company (last purchase from Daedalic).

I suppose without discount I'd spend the same or even lower amount here – purchasing only games I'm sure I'm going to play right now and to play from the beginning to the end.

Out of curiosity I just checked my orders history: after the initial adding of free games to my newly created GOG account, my first two real purchases were two $9,99 games at 50% off (putting them at $4,99), followed by two $5,99 games at 30% off (putting them at $4,19).
So - back in 2010 - the "33% off" would have been a tempting offer (for me at least) to buy the one game among these three, in which I'm slightly interested.
But yeah - with a huge backlog to defeat...and no plans to play the game immediately... :)

Out of curiosity I just checked my orders history, which started much later, in 2016, and the only games I've paid $7+ seem to be full-scale classic RPGs (BG+ID+P:T, VtM:B, Age of Decadence etc.). The rest are deep discounts, with some quite big bundles/packs taken from time to time because of good price per game (mostly crpg and adventure series, but also various genres from Interplay portfolio etc.). With backlog and lack of time, low price is my main trigger right now. And I suppose I'm not alone with such approach.

There are still games on my wishlist, which are probably worth paying $10+, but with no hurry to play them, I'm waiting... I guess I'm far from being a good client for GOG :/ The only one I've paid a bit more this year is Pillars of Eternity: Definitive Edition (25 PLN, which is ~$7). The only one I'm ready to pay more in near future (even without being able to play right away) is Hollow Knight: Silksong.

Very happy to see these games here, although for two of them it would be nice to get native linux installers.

Wait, are you Swissykin on the GOG subreddit? If so are you annoyed that I occasionally just let people know about the wishlist's existence? :P Some people get oddly bitter when I post.
Nice to see Deadly Dozen Pacific Theater finally added
Weird how they changed Rock'n Wrestle to Bop'n Wrestle.

indeed a weird selection, and not only PC

Bop'N Wrestle also on:

Commodore 64
Amstrad CPC
Atari 8-bit
and more ...
.
.
.
.
played the c64 version

Also played Bop N Rumble..... (c64) one enemy is an old guy and the wrestler turns the old mans ears until he's knock out ....
weird games they made

Operation Wolf , OP Thunderbolt also great classics ...

the AMIGA version had better graphics then the old PC version , PC had pixel graphics , while AMIGA graphics were smoother.

Anyway there are still many games , that may or never may arrive : diablo 2 will probably never arrive cause they still sell keys online :D
