Food for thought up to 80% off - and more to come!


Welcome to the fourth <span class="bold">Weekly Sale</span> of the year! It's got business moguls, ruthless warlords, and unassuming spies. Let's go meet some of them.

There's no greater war than the one governed by the laws of the market. Whether you're just trying to establish your humble Restaurant Empire in the cutthroat world of eateries, or to reach the top in the rich man's world of Capitalism Plus, it's all about the money. Invest smartly, adhere to the market's needs, outmanoeuvre your competitors, and use all the tools of your trade. After all, watching the world from the top is as demanding as it is intoxicating.

Switching to the far less prestigious but arguably more friendly streets of 1880's colonial India, we follow street urchin-turned-spy Kim, as he tries to survive with stealth and smart dialogue choices. Rudyard Kipling's words are as beautiful as ever, but it's up to you how to use them.

Things are far less humane in the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. zone, a bleak place where dignity goes to die. Recently things got even more interesting there, too, as <span class="bold">Call of Chernobyl</span>, an award-winning sandbox mod by TeamEPIC, was released, overhauling many of the game's subsystems in 32 fully explorable maps.


As always, there's more – including Warlords Battlecry 3, Cossacks 2 Anthology, and Seven Kingdoms up to 80% off. Plus, stay tuned for new games and deals this Friday!

The <span class="bold">Weekly Sale</span> will last until January 30, 5:00 PM GMT.

Maybe will get STALKER games. I already own Clear Sky, so only two of them left. Sad that there is nothing more than rumors about STALKER 2. :(

I'm interested in the Kim game, it looks very unique and interesting.

Other interesting titles except Stalker games that you might know less and are worth getting:


Codename: Outbreak is basically videogame version of The Puppet Masters (1994). Squad based FPP tactical shooter.

FireStarter is like eXistenZ meets Videodrome. Graphics and music are more akin to Quake III but gameplay is like UT in permanent waves/invasion/horde mode. Since game tries simulate you as a player being in sync with corrupted virtual world there are artefacts that you need to grab, they are simply quick-loads, lives or checkpoints. Other part of "virtual 48 hours" thing not just artefacts, if you enabled timer every map has certain time that go down and you need survive until it reaches zero, be it all enemies killed, artefacts reached etc. To some degree every character has unique skils you get by levelling up. What this game lacks for better closure with all that virtual reality premise is good outro since there's nice intro. Something like: you survive and leave the game but do you really? is that dude shooting with pistol and monsters coming after him? I'm almost sure there supposed to be something like that but neither versions of the game ends that way.

A few posts above yours, someone mentioned waiting for the games added Friday, so I believe this may have been a misquote.

To answer his question though, GOG's weekly sales now start and end on Monday (new and old sale will overlap for a few hours) but additional games are added on Friday. It was announced here.

Fesin: Buy S.T.A.L.K.E.R.!
Which one?

I got Clear Sky as a bonus from a promo and have started to play it a few times, but never could get into the game. I like the atmosphere and the music. The graphics also isn't bad. But for me the game play is slow, tedious and rather boring. Most of the missions are travel from here to there, get something from that place or bring something to another place. More like an adventure game than a shooter. :P
And even after several hours you still do not have the equipment to go on fight on your own.

Are there any essential differences between the 3 games or can I assume when I do not enjoy Clear Sky that I also will not enjoy the two other games?
