Mentioned this in the Sinking City thread, but I think it's worth a thread of its own on GOG.
Frogwares advertises Sinking City being "DRM free" on their website. I purchased it with that understanding, only to find that it requires activation and using their app to play. Launching from any .exe in the folder with the app uninstalled returns an error message, "please launch from frogwares app" or whatever.
I immediately bought the game when I saw their legal troubles and their claim of a DRM free download. To be conned like this is very sad. I left replies on their social media, but I doubt they ever respond. I demanded a refund from the provider, but I doubt they give me one. So... this is a warning and a rant.
