Up to 80% off hidden gems like Corpse Party, Prison Architect, Raiden Legacy, The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, and more!



Sometimes the games that stay with you the longest are not the epic, loud, or visually impressive ones, but those who happen to come along when you're looking for something surprising and unconventional. <span class="bold">Introversion + DotEmu + XSEED</span> have plenty of that on offer, so if you're in the market for underground classics or out-of-the-box experiences, that's the right place for you. Especially with that handy up to 80% discount on them!

Have you ever attended an after school Corpse Party with your friends? It's not something you would forget: there are vengeful spirits, horrible secrets, and plenty of misplaced guts involved. If you navigate the mysteries and live to tell the tale, you'll be the talk of your school for ages to come! Shame about those you had to leave behind, though...

Every now and then you just need a good first-person RPG fix. Ishar Compilation will test your combat and orientation skills, as you're leading your party of five adventurers through the unfamiliar but rewarding dungeons where evil reigns supreme.

The pop culture has trained us to think of maximum security prisons as hellish backdrops for great breakout stories. Prison Architect lets you run the place and make sure that the conditions will not make your inmates itch for an escape. Not that they could pull it off, of course.



Looking for haunting stories, some old-school RPG fun, or a proper management challenge? It's all here inside the <span class="bold">Introversion + DotEmu + XSEED</span> catalogs, going for up to 80% off. Pick between Raiden Legacy, The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky, Little King's Story, Defcon, or one of the other little-known gems.
The promo will last until November 22, 4:59 AM UTC.

mecharma: Oh boy!!!!

There are some SERIOUSLY awesome stuff on that list, you are in for a TREAT (...when you get around doing them :)

IwubCheeze: Dreamfall is definately a game I gotta pick up. I got the Dreamfall final chapters as a freebie in a previous promo. I heard they were good games but now I'm finding it kind of annoying I have the third part but not parts 1 and 2 ;)

Sacrifice is a quirky game to be sure. In this game you choose with god to serve next mission and each chose develops your main character differently. The replay combinations are staggering, you'll see when you get round to it.

Not to mention BG, IWD and FO are all games with very high replay value

Vythonaut: Even though I played them countless times (and BG, Planescape, Fallout), somehow they never got off of my backlog; they're still waiting there to be played again. Used to play them annually since their release, and although lately there were some great cRPGs that had my attention such as Divinity: Original Sin, UnderRail & the Shadowrun series, eventually I'll get back to them. I don't know why, but with the Infinity Engine games I feel right at home.

One last thing; I didn't see you mention Arcanum in your list -- if by any chance you haven't played it, then by all means add it to your backlog. ;)
It seems I'm a lucky guy. I just need MORE free time. I wonder if quiting my job will do.

IAmSinistar: I've always assumed it was strictly multiplayer, but maybe not. I can fire it up and see. I would guess even if it's single-player it's probably more for skirmishes than campaign-oriented like Darwinia.
If you've time, why not, but don't feel it obligatory ! :) Thanks for the proposition !
I just bought Darwinia to try it, thanks to the suggestions in this thread, so there's not urgency in buying Multiwinia ;)

I just installed it and launched it, it's pretty much as assumed. I does have single-player, which offers six different scenarios. Some are lifted from the Darwinia campaign, and others are basic skirmishes. It's not a bad selection if you want more Darwinia hijinks, but Darwinia itself remains the first and best choice. :)

vicklemos: For sure, man! For damn sure.
Can't say a thing about Chronicles but judging from my experience with Felghana and thus my several hours spent with it (as someone who simply isn't into these type of games) I say now to ya: go and get it.
No lies, this is a wondrous game, and not pc demanding at all!

omega64: Chronicles is nothing like the rest of the games on here.
Enlighten moi please my octopal!

Hm, I wonder why Uplink isn't on sale for this weekend, despite how the rest of Introversion Software's games are on discount?

Also, glad to see XSeed's games on sale, especially the ones made by Nihon Falcom! The Ys series is great if you love action-packed gameplay (but beware that Ys 1 + 2 don't play like Ys Origin and Oath in Felghana).
Posted November 18, 2016
The Ys games are great. Especially for the music and the action. 1 and 2 are different, because you run into enemies to attack them instead of clearly attacking with a weapon.

Origin, Oath and VI are especially impressive with 3D Vision (and it helps knowing at what depth the enemy sprites are, and it makes the games look better, of course).

And all of them have unlocked fps.

I want more Ys games on PC! :(

Chronicles doesn't have the action combat the rest has.
It has you bumping into enemies at an angle to damage them.
Just look for a video on it and you'll get it. :P
Origin is my favourite, I'd recommend you play it.
Btw Oath in Felghana is a remake of the 3rd game in the series. :P

Nothing for me in this promo. My wallet is safe. :D

There are five (six, if you count the Chinese version of Seven), that's already decent. And that's probably all you will get as they have abandoned the PC market...and it's not like their newer games are any good anyway. I used to be a huge Nihon Falcom fan (and have imported their Ys games) but that already changed many years ago.

I want Xanadu Next with 70%, please? :)

Well, maybe this time next year.

Actually seven, because there is a Chinese Ys: Memories of Celceta port too. But I want them on GOG, DRM-free :p. If XSEED could get their hands on those ports at least...

Yah, it's still pretty fresh. Fun, too, in a grind-y way. And I don't know that I've played another RPG where keys are a more precious and vital asset than potions or gold. :D

Hm, you are correct. Released pretty much one year ago. I guess that underlines my point that I'm no fan anymore *cough*
Have you played that and Seven though? I only played the latter and that pretty much **** all over the series in what it was (Origin too in a sense but that is excused because of its unique position in the timeline + not having Adol in it). And the people that agreed with me regarding Seven and have the same perspective on the series as me say that Memories of Celceta is even worse. So yeah, not touching that. The saving grace for them is that while it alienates longtime fans, newer ones probably won't care as much about that part.

Have you played Ys VIII yet? It came out in Japan for the PS Vita this past summer, and from all accounts, seems to be heavily praised for being one of the best in the entire series. I haven't played it myself since I'm still waiting for the English localization, but I'd be curious to know if you'd like the newest entry considering you think the series has lost it's way in it's past two iterations.

No matter how good a game it might be and no matter how cheap it may become I highly doubt I'll ever buy Prison Architect. Am I the only one who finds the game's concept/theme utterly unappealing?
