Dark, dark ages.

Inquisitor, a dark medieval story of witchcraft prosecution, inspired by the classic isometric gems of PC role-playing golden age, is available 66% off on GOG.com. That's only $4.99 for the next 24 hours.

Whispers in the dark, voices tempting the weak minds, demons creeping into the world of man--this is your reality, brother. To strike against evil is your holy duty. The edge of your sword is the way of redemption. Show no mercy, as you will find no compassion in the corrupt hearts of the enemies of faith. Remember this, brother, your work--as terrible as it may seem--is a necessity. Shall the bodies perish in fire, the souls will be saved. Do not hesitate to take the mundane lives of heretics, as their eternal lives are at stake. Do not be afraid to inflict pain, as you'll be saving them from eternal suffering and damnation. Truthfully, brother inquisitor, you'll be saving all of the world.

Inquisitor trailer

Inquisitor offers gameplay that takes you back to the classic era of isometric PC RPGs. Its dark, non-linear, and morally ambiguous story unfolds in thousands of pages worth of atmospheric dialog that paints a convincing picture of a medieval world facing a demonic threat. You play the part of the holy inquisitor in this tale, and your character's mission will force you to take drastic actions in order to stop a greater evil from taking over the realm and the souls of its inhabitants. Just like in the saying: to fight monsters, you'll need to become a monster yourself. This is one deep and satisfying classic RPG experience that won't leave you indifferent. If you long for the classic role-playing gameplay, you can't go wrong with Inquisitor!

Unleash your holy rage against the heretics in the phenomenally old-school RPG, Inquisitor, for only $4.99 on GOG.com. The promo lasts until Thursday, September 19, at 9:59AM GMT.

Huff: Hopefully they will get this game patched up soon too
Why? I've finished it twice already, didn't find any major bugs.

XYCat: ...
Can I load a previous position, grind respawning enemies (hopefully in moderate rate) and then come back later when I feel I'm ready? Are there story barriers (i.e. I leave the area to complete a quest and discover that I cannot go back)?

Yes to the first question, no to the second one.

Okay, I am getting this game. Thanks, Licurg.
It's okay game I guess. Better than Lionhart, but not overly impressive.
Loving the game, personally. I really enjoy old-school 2D graphics, the atmosphere is surprisingly engrossing and the score is beautiful. The text isn't as encyclopaedic as I was expecting (based on what I'd read of the game), and I'm really enjoying the story. The combat is a little clunky, but that's all; the rest of the game is pretty solid. Well, what I've seen of it in my 14 hours at least (I've yet to complete Act I).

If you're even remotely curious, buy the game, I'm pretty sure you won't be disappointed. It's totally worth full price and an absolute steal at this discounted one.

man, the final quarter of Lionheart was so bad! and that anticlimatic ending! ugh!

but I can't play Inquisitor anymore, it's such a massive clickfest that my arm hurts just by thinking of it (yet I don't have a problem with Diablo, so that's that)

Also, the game auto-saves every time you enter a new area or you talk to someone, so when you die you don't have to start over from scratch :)

auto-save at the beginning of a conversation is a great thing, you can always come back when you say something bad (or torture someone by accident :D
Looks like something i could enjoy, seems very much Sacred like.

It's not like Sacred... More similar to Baldur's Gate.
Ouch! this one is SOOOOO tempting but I'm not even sure it will run on my OS and I suck at hard games.

How tragic this life we live is! :P
