RupertMurdock: Short description:
A crew in a spaceship. Several days left to reach Mars. Every day one or more components of the ship malfunction and you have to send a crew member to repair the damage. Every character has a special ability which you can use by sacrifying dice. You just have a limited amount of dice per character. You might lose dice due to specific damages and I guess aditionally one dice per round. You can get some dice back, but it will require specific action or cost you don't want to pay. The goal is to reach Mars or survive a given number of days.

IronArcturus: Thanks for the info!

Also, do you know if TIS-100 is any good?
Yep it's good if you're into programming but may be a miss if not. You would be writing in assembly like language and doing simple tasks like checking sign flips on input numbers, computing totals of several numbers in inputs (has been some time since I played but iirc you would be adding numbers till you hit a zero and then find new sum for numbers until you hit zero again as input), etc. The challenge mainly comes from the limited number of instructions per node and managing data flow among nodes as well as the nature of commands provided to you.
Edit: there's a sandbox where you can write whatever code you want and another mode where you can design your own problems by defining inputs/outputs to go along with it.

I've played couple of first levels. It's fine if you know some assembly, but it felt like my work after a while, so I haven't played it much. It is also evil, sends information about your solution time and style to developer servers without your consent.

IronArcturus: How does that Layers of Fear game compare to Amnesia?
Amnesia has gameplay elements, mostly puzzles and stealth, as you know.

In Layers of Fear you just walk around and look at things, whereby the storyline slowly reveals itself to you, think Dear Esther or Gone Home. As an experience it's a freaky game, especially when it comes to the visual effects. In terms of gameplay it has more in common with Machine for Pigs , rather than Amnesia and Penumbra.

Is there a way to turn that off?

@Gog staff :

Please remove all those " record low " signs from the front page . Many of those games were already cheaper in elsewhere .

I've installed it again, and no, I can't find anything to turn it off. I guess you can always firewall it.

Mind that these are the traditional high-score-on-the-internet data, but I'm allergic when game needs to send my data to internet for any reason.

That's too bad. I really don't like it when game devs put that "feature" in their games...

Also, have you tried Cryptark at all?

Is there a way of seeing what's in the sale? The front page shows a few titles, and there are a couple of tags (less than2$ and such like) but nowhere to see a list and how much off. Nor does it show on wishlist. In fact I can't see anything sale wise other than the handful on the main page.

Theodore? And what's with the 'him' again?

Wait a second... are you telling me she is not a female named Zee O'Dour?!

Oh well, nobody's perfect.

Your BIG DEAL Sale is a BIG HASSLE. You see something you're interested in. You open its page, it's on sale. You put it in your cart, it's no longer on sale. In Canada, the legal term for that is "bait and switch" and it's illegal. Even in places where it is legal, it's unethical and crass. So make up your minds. If you don't want to put something on sale, don't, but once it's on sale, leave it there. And if you put it there by mistake, live with the consequences of your errors.

Just in the past few minutes, you yanked the "Zombie Night Terror" upgrade and the entire "Dungeons 2" series from your absurdly named "WEEKLONG DEALS". In case English isn't your native language, "weeklong" means it's supposed to last all week, not disappear on the first half of the first day.

Yes, I am pissed off and no, I don't owe a respectful answer to disrespectful treatment.

The interesting part of the site is, that since the weekly sale is gone there is an empty place -> look at the part, where it says LATEST DEAL (screenshot):
