In the 1920s, on the East Coast of the United States, the half-submerged city of Oakmont is gripped by supernatural forces. You're a private investigator, uncovering the truth of what has possessed the city and corrupted the minds of its inhabitants... and yours.

The Sinking City – an adventure and investigation game developed and published by Frogwares, and set in an open world inspired by the universe of H.P. Lovecraft, the master of Horror, is now available on GOG with a -70% discount that lasts until January 23rd!

Moreover, you also grab the game’s DLCs: Chicago Organ, Experience Boost, Investigator Pack, Merciful Madness, Worshippers of the Necronomicon, and its Deluxe Edition – all with -70% discounts.



With their legacy of immersive, story-driven Sherlock Holmes games, Frogwares are masters of detective thrillers that transcend boundaries of virtual entertainment.

With their The Sinking City you can expect an oppressive atmosphere and story inspired by the universe of H.P. Lovecraft, a vast open world that can be explored on foot, by boat, or even in a diving suit, high replay value thanks to an open investigation system (each case can be solved in a number of ways, with different possible endings depending on your actions), an arsenal of weapons from the 1920s with which to take on nightmarish creatures, and the system of managing your mental health to untangle the truth behind the madness.

The Sinking City awaits – do you dare to enter?

Nice to finally see this on gog. Took Frogwares very long to get their game back from Nacon.

Also watch out! The Deluxe version includes all the DLCs.
Yay!
What better to overcome winter blues and forget blue monday than some cosmic horrors on your doorstep?
Trailer produces certain BioShock electricity... Perhaps Devs inspired by the same?

Isn't that a positive thing? Or should one avoid the Deluxe version because of that?
Very nice catch, instabuy :)
Nice to see this game finally ong GOG and freed from Nacon!

Though I won't rebuy it soon, since I already have the DRM-free Gamesplanet version for a long time! :)

Instant purchase. It's unbelievable to finally see it here.

Hopefully Frogwares will release the Arbook and OST here too.

And with strange aeons even Distributions Right from Nacon may die!
Congratulations Frogware and GOG for this definitive version!
Not many people know, the game is located in Brazil*. Tho I hadn't heard that they had to deal with supernatural forces on top of the sinking ground too.

(Just a joke with the fact that there's a state capital here in Brazil that is facing a disaster due to greedy mining.)

Back on topic: the game looks pretty decent. I can see why so many were hoping to see it here.

It's not my regular cup of tea (I get bored with most horror-themed stuff) and even then I'm interested in picking it up and playing it.

not really sure what to make of this game...

I like Lovecraft (love Dark Corners of the Earth but hated the gunplay there)

I've never played any Frogware games before

I enjoy a very good story / atmospheric games and reasonable puzzles

is this for me?

checked some sites for reviews and I see a full spectrum from 3/10 to 9/10 :/

Of course its positive. Gog just didn't write in the release notes that the Deluxe version includes DLC.
Zero hand-holding, no straightforward tasks and no objectives to follow. Sounds like the only thing that's sinking in this game is your time. The journal better be well written, or this can very quickly become an exercise in frustration.

And 0,90€ (will ignore the fact, that the full price is 2,99€) for a skillpoint! Surely they can't be serious?

Is it ?

Some of those DLC's seem like cheats and i'm not keen on a first run with XP boosts, extra healing and items that would otherwise require progression.

In terms of Deluxe Edition, are the dlc separate installers or are they baked in the main installer ?

Each DLC comes as a separate installer, so you can install only the ones you want
