With 700+ games discounted up to 90% off, daily special Bundle Deals, a constant stream of exciting Flash Sales, and some fantastic surprise giveaways, we launch into the season of gaming joy!

The biggest celebration of DRM-Free gaming this season is right now, right here on GOG.com! It's warm and nice outside, the summer draws ever closer, so let's make sure it's full of fantastic games. There's no one good way to spend your summer, but we know well that gaming can make every single one of them better. So, whether you plan to stay inside, hike into the wilderness, or take a boat into the calm sea, we'll make sure your laptop is filled with great DRM-Free games you can enjoy anytime, anywhere. To that end, we're holding our [url=http://www.gog.com]2014 DRM-Free Summer Sale!

Each day we'll present you with at least two special Bundle Deals with a selection of of great classics and indies available up to 90% off! As usual, you'll be able to buy just selected titles out of the bundle with a slightly lower discount, or complete your collection with just the ones you're missing, retaining the higher discount rate. Let's take a look at our offers for today, shall we?

Today, we seriously mix things up to bring you both lighthearted comedy as well as dark and morbid horror. The Legacy of Kain Saga is the Full House of gaming with its family themes and colorful presentation. Across four episodes ironically titled Soul Reaver, Soul Reaver 2, Blood Omen 2, and Defiance the series explores the relation between Kain, a authoritative father with obvious god complex, and Raziel, his rebellious son with questionable fashion sense. The story also includes many of their relatives from extended family, that cannot help but to make a mess in their imaginary homeland called Nosgoth. Hilarity ensues! All this cheerful moments for only $5.96 (that's 75% off!). The other of our offers today, is bound to chill the blood in your veins with its terrifying setting alone. The Deponia Complete Trilogy takes place on a distant planet. A planet, that long ago must have been not so different from our own Earth. Yet now, it is a grim and dark place that suffered a tragic environmental disaster. The surface of the planet is now completely covered with waste. Toxic rain flushes the pollution deep into the ground, poisoning it and making the land barren. Way above, there's the remaining enclave of civilization, housing the remnant of the human race. Now imagine one of them, a defenseless girl, falls down to the toxic junkyard below. Even though she doesn't die instantly poisoned with every imaginable toxin, her future looks grim. The wasteland is filled with danger, and soon she'll find out that she is not alone among the towering piles of garbage. What strange mutated monsters could have survived in such conditions? And what do they eat? The horror! All the thrills for just $11.97 (that's 80% off!). There you have it, a mix of laughter and cries of despair to fill your weekend with gripping gaming. Or did we overdo the mixing?

On top of that, almost all of our catalog has been discounted by up to 50%. On top of that, our front page is overflowing with excellent Flash Sales on single games. You can grab them up to 90% as well, but don't take to long, as they come and go pretty fast! Why don't you head out to GOG.com front page, and see what's happening right NOW!

The_Blog: Just completed my Thief collection for 1,99$ :O
Already owned the first and the third. But not the second ^^

I'm kinda tempted to buy the Tex Murphy Adventures...hmmm
I recommend the tex games if you love badly acted FMVs and a good mystery

undeadcow: Too bad Tex Murphy 1-2 and Overseer are apparently not Windows 8 compatible.

skeletonbow: Tex rules, I think it's better to look at it more like Windows 8 is not Tex Murphy compatible. hehehe.
Still kinda sad. I think I pick Under a killing moon though. That one should be compatible.

undeadcow: Too bad Tex Murphy 1-2 and Overseer are apparently not Windows 8 compatible.
I'm fairly certain 1-2 are at least compatible in practice - they're DOSBox games.

I'm not sure about Overseer; haven't played or installed it yet.

I think I'll do some research. Because DosBox games are definitly compatible with Windows 8.
I very much agree with SkeletonBow, the Tex Murphy series is excellent & (at this price, especially) should absolutely not be missed.

Personally, I already own everything within the Tex Murphy bundle on GOG and own all of the Thief bundle games on Steam. At the current price, I decided to repurchase the Thief games for GOG as well (something I've been doing a lot of with this sale).
I'm very anxious for GOG Galaxy to launch, and I want to fill it with an impressive selection of adventure games and classics.
Happy that I waited on purchasing the Tex Murphy games, almost pulled the trigger last night. Guess I'll wait it off and see what the daily deals for the next few weeks turnout to be before anymore major purchases. Can still pickup the 50% deals in the last few days of the summer sale if necessary.

The day of freebies should be interesting, even the flash freebies would be good to see.

What exactly do you mean with "day of freebies"?

The_Blog: Not? :(
1 & 2 are DOSBox games, they are compatible to anything, including your toaster. Sometimes the GOG staff simply hasn't yet come around to testing the compatibility.

Yeah was my thought too. DosBox should basicly run everywhere.

undeadcow: Too bad Tex Murphy 1-2 and Overseer are apparently not Windows 8 compatible.
The GOG Tex Murphy Series forums seem to have a number of posts on how to make these games run under Windows 7 and newer, so even though the GOG game cards do not specify Windows 7 or 8 support for Overseer it looks like it can be made to work. I own the game and am using Windows 7 so I can test it out sometime in the future but it probably wont be for a while. For $2 though I'd buy now and worry about compatibility later, where there's a will there's a way. :)

The original post was overwritten yesterday, but I did find it again as a reply. The last paragraph is what you will be looking for.

The GOG news article about the summer sale which is the top link in the news section of the homepage states that there will be one game given as an all day freebie near the end of the sale promotion (which is June 30th although that isn't stated in the article but in the forums by GOG employees), and that there will be other freebies that show up periodically as flash sale freebies.

Oh that sounds interesting :O
This seemed to be the moset useful thread about Tex Murphy: Overseer compatibility, fwiw:

Thank you to those who replied.
Can someone tell me if the STALKER series will be in this promo too?
