Resonance, The Whispered World, Blackwell Bundle, Machinarium, and other Adventures 50% off.

[url=http://www.gog.com/en/promo/indie_adventures_weekend/ ][/url]Do you want to hear the story of the origins of our [url=http://www.gog.com/en/promo/indie_adventures_weekend/ ]Point-and-Click Mix Promo[/url], that offers you 6 great indie adventure games with a 50% discount? Well, here it is. In the beginning there were just the keyboards. But then the God of PC Gaming said: "Let there be a device on your desks that you could use to move a little cursor on the screen". And there was such a device. And the God of PC Gaming saw that it was good, and he said: "Let this device be known as MOUSE, because its cord looks like a little tail and it just cracks me up". And the device was called a "mouse" and so it shall be until the end of times. And the God of PC Gaming said: "Whoah! Looks like I'm in the zone and every idea I have today turns out to be brilliant. Say... wouldn't it be fun to use this mouse to point-and-click your way through adventure games?". And all of the Creation stopped in awe for a moment or two, such was the greatness of this idea. And the God of PC Gaming saw that Point-and-Click Adventures were good. No, not just good: simply awesomesauce! And here, at GOG.com, we sure as hell share this opinion. But enough about genesis, let's cut to the chase. Here's what we've been blessed with in the [url=http://www.gog.com/en/promo/indie_adventures_weekend/ ]Point-and-Click Mix Promo[/url]!

If you're a fan of pixel-art aesthetics and classic adventure narrative, you simply cannot afford to miss , [url=http://www.gog.com/gamecard/gemini_rue]Gemini Rue, and Blackwell Bundle! Uncover a catastrophic conspiration and solve the riddle behind the secret vault of a genius particle physicist. Then take a trip across the gritty neo-noir galaxy in the sci-fi story of shady businesses, villainy, and redemption. Finally, follow the writer/medium/detective Rosangela Blackwell and her pulse-impaired companion Joe Mallone on four of their mystery-packed cases set in 1970's New York.

If you prefer games that feel so modern and surreal that they can be used as an argument in the everlasting "games as art" debate, be sure to check out Amanita Design's and [url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/machinarium_collectors_edition]Machinarium: Collector's Edition. Both games feature unique worlds that will amaze you with their dream-like landscapes. Guide a little robot through the metal-covered, puzzle-packed city of aberrant automatons or help a group of little tree-sprites to save the last seed of their home-tree from an insect invasion. Whichever world you choose to visit first, it's sure to leave you astonished!

Or maybe you're looking for an adventure that feels like an amazing animated fairy-tale? Look no further! The Whispered World is exactly that: high-quality 2D adventure game with hand-painted backgrounds and traditional hand-drawn frame-by-frame animation. Can you get to the bottom of a mysterious prophecy, and assist Sadwick and his companion Spot on a dangerous adventure that leads them to the furthest ends of the Whispered World?

Grab your mouse and head out to the [url=http://www.gog.com/en/promo/indie_adventures_weekend/ ]Point-and-Click Mix Promo[/url] page, to check out the God's of PC Gaming gifts to humanity--now 50% off on GOG.com.
While point&click adventure games are not quite my preferred genre (anymore), I am still somewhat interested in these titles. So I got the ones I don't have already: Machinarium, Resonance, Blackwell Bundle and Botanicula.

TheJoe: Gemini Rue, Resonance and Blackwell are classics, just not in the chronological sense.
Pick them up and have the time of your life.

makr3la: Which one should I buy (and play) first? I heard many good things about Gemini Rue :)
I'd recommend the Blackwell bundle myself, followed by Resonance, then Gemini Rue.

But I've always been more of a fan of the supernatural than hardboiled sci-fi.
What an great promo. GOG has turned me into more of an adventure gamer than I choose to admit.
Awesome promo! When I get home from work, I'm going to grab Resonance, as it's the only one I do not have...bit of an adventure game enthusiast. Thanks, GOG!

tordhs: Nothing for me here. But I do know what I would have bought: The legend of Kyrandia games :D They are the best point and click games EVER (in my mind at least). But sadly, they are not on gog.com :( :(
I share your pain

SLP2000: Buy Botanicula, it's awesome game.
someday, someday

As much as I love P&C games and as much as many of these games are on my wishlist, I bought a bunch of stuff in the last promo so i'll be holding off.
Great promo!

mrking58: Resonance, Gemini Rue, and Blackwell Bundle

I those are on my list. Got to love some point and click games
You know a game is probably meant to be on your shelf when you notice all games on that "Gamers who bought it also bought..." box are things you either have or wishlisted waiting for a promo (Gabriel Knight anyone?). And such is the case for most of this promo for me.
Thank heavens I'm on vacations starting today so I won't feel bad for adding Resonance and Gemini Rue to my backlog. I might even get to finish some games!
Now let's all bow down to the God of PC Gaming, for his wisdom is beyond compare.
Here I was thinking meh...Then I took a closer look at the games and said, yay! So there you have it, a great promo with many great games. So GOG'ers don't just say meh, take a look and say yay!
These games start as a whisper then resonate deeper than a black-well. They are a worthy bundle for any collector and will shine bright as twin gemini in your botanical-mechanical games world. Get them or rue the day.
Yay! :D
I'm just about maxed out this month. And, sadly, I already own most of these elsewhere, so thanks for the offer but not today.

Hmmm... Resonance
I wish The Book of Unwritten Tales was in this promo too...
Some truly great stuff here, but a shame some of the other PnCs aren't included. A discount on Ceville would have made me dust off the digital wallet :P
Great promo. Machinarium style is fantastic..

Imago: I wish The Book of Unwritten Tales was in this promo too...
Same...I really want that one, but can't do it for $20. Ceville is another that I'm waiting for a sale one.
