Hopefully you have managed to refill your "gaming change bank" to take advantage of our next round of incredible deals.

Starting from tomorrow we'll be offering special one-day promos on some of GOG.com's "hidden" gems. These quick promos will be made in a similar way to our usual "GOG.com Gems Promo" that we've been running for some time now. Just like the Wednesday promos, we're going to highlight some of the lesser known classics in our catalogue. With this newspost we're giving you a heads-up that you should check back GOG.com every day until 25th of July. We'll be offering all of the hidden gems of this promo for sale at 60% off, so keep your eyes peeled so you don't miss out on a great deal for a game you've been waiting to buy for months. The first "Summer Hidden Gem" will be revealed tomorrow at 6:00 a.m. EDT (10:00 a.m. GMT)! Be there or be square! ;)

spindown: Baldur's Gate, really? I did not see anything that hinted at these games. Could you explain what made you think they would be on sale?

Lexor: First summer gem promo:
As our catalog gets bigger and better every week, it’s easy to lose track of some of the awesome games that we have to offer. We’ve been running one day “Gaming Gem” promos for a while now to highlight some classic titles that don’t get the love of some of our best-known blockbusters like Baldur’s Gate or Duke Nukem 3D. To celebrate summer, for the next two weeks until July 25th, we’re going to run a Gaming Gem promo every day, so you can rediscover these lesser-known classics! Grab that plastic toy shovel and dig out gem after gem over the next 18 days. We think every game we’re going to be offering on our Summer GOG.com Gem Extravaganza will be an excellent title, and we hope you give them all a try.

Lexor: For me that was a suggestion that BG will NOT appear on summer promo 100% sure.
Well that is one way of reading it, but I guess it wasn't the way I did. Considering it's rarely if never on sale I was holding out some hope that it would be offered as a Gem. I'm picking it right now anyways, but mark my words, it'll be discounted now. O_o

BG is a Gem, yes, but it is not a Hidden Gem - that promo was about hidden ones.
Lots of great titles in the promo. I bought about half of them.

I was hoping that Silent Hunter II would be included. I've been wanting to try a sub sim, but $9.99 is out of my budget for a single title. Hopefully it will pop up in a later sale.
Is this promo ended ? Will we get weekend deals again ?

Yep, it ended on the 25th. Hopefully we'll see some other goodies down the road soon!

kodeen: Unfortunately I can't play three free slots (I'm actually trying to build a backlog). Looking at what's available, I'd probably be happy with any of those games except for the Tex Murphy series.

Lexor: I bet we will see Two Worlds on sale soon. That will fulfill your needs.
Yes, it is me myself. The Great Prophet.
