Help shape a fascinating tale of danger, intrigue, and stubborn bubbles.

Previously on Adventure on Mystery Island
After an unfortunate plane crash and a rather fortunate encounter with the enigmatic Monolith of Multitude, you end up with sand in your shoes, a precious code for Rebel Galaxy in your pocket, and a healthy dose of curiosity in your gut.
The path towards the second Monolith goes through the foreboding Sidequest Castle, which turned out to be the home of a slightly unhinged but rather jolly dragon who loooooves role-playing. You unwittingly become her knight is shining prose and after your reluctant participation in a humiliating play, you escape towards the Bridge of DOOM. Naturally, your attempt to pole-vault over it goes awfully wrong but thanks to the miraculous intervention of a giant bird, you somehow end up on the other side of the bridge, right outside the Brainstorm Basin. Here, you were tasked with solving a devious riddle involving unburstable bubbles, which you did with surprising aplomb. Certain that nothing can interrupt your quest anymore, you enter a giant monkey head and find yourself inside The Cave of Countless Chats. It's a maze and in order to get out, you agree to help a Harmless Old Lady find her granddaughter's dollie. She, of course, turns out to be a voodoo priestess and after getting painfully zapped around the place, you finally exit the Cave and find yourself standing in front of The Second Monolith. Your reward? A shiny copy of Fantasy General and the promise of more adventures, lying beyond the Purple Portal that just opened up off shore...

Catch up on <span class="bold">Chapter 1</span>, <span class="bold">Chapter 2</span>, <span class="bold">Chapter 3</span>, <span class="bold">Chapter 4</span>, <span class="bold">Chapter 5</span>, and <span class="bold">Chapter 6</span> of the story.

CHAPTER 7: The Purple Portal

You spend a couple of days building a sturdy raft and then training wild sea turtles to haul it. The project is a resounding success and you finally throw your raft in the water, ready to sail towards greatness.
You put on your paper crafted hat, strike a magisterial pose and bellow a command in a language that sounds like mating seagulls. Nothing happens. You try again, with more vibrato this time. The raft stands still. Unfazed by this temporary setback, you scream the ungodly command for the third time. At last, your sea turtles rush forward!

But "forward" is not the right word.

Panicked and confused, the poor sea creatures opt for a different route, sailing instead around the island. Your pleas and feeble threats go unnoticed.
After two full circles, you miraculously end up on the patch of land that the Purple Portal occupies. Good job, Cap'n.

It is quite the sight. The portal swirls and flickers with mystical energy, dangerous but terribly inviting. What other mysteries and magical lands could be lying ahead, you wonder. You hesitate. Turning your head around, you gaze at the island one last time, reminiscing about the fascinating adventures and spectacular humiliations it gave you.

Suddenly, before you get a chance to change your mind, someone or something reaches out and drags you inside!

Well, that was unexpected.

To be continued...

Marioface5: It's a purple portal, and Galaxy is purple. I'd like for this to be something big, but I'm expecting it to be some sort of Galaxy push.
I hope, that it will be portal to some unknown alien galaxy...

Question is whether some orc from beyond the dark portal arive or maybe it would be portal to Mars where is still doom...

What conundrum!?!

Khorne wouldn't be bad too - but well, it was a pink Warp Gate after all. No one else should be expected at this point:)
How about Day of the Tentacle Remastered, there's some purple in that. And the tentacle could have reached out through the portal…

Though it seems a little late for any more deals with only a few hours left.
Hate to break it to you, but there won't be new deals. That was just cheesy ending of our adventure in hopes of us to buy the sequel, should it come out :P
Well, that was a bummer... I was expecting a new release relate to that portal: Half Life (LMAO! I know that's almost impossible but one can dream), Warcraft 2, Diablo 1 or in worst case scenario a really, truly amazing new feature for GOG Galaxy... For the ones expecting a new free game that was very unlikely... I wonder when this "tale" will continue.

And one more thing, could be possible if you GOG team share with us your summer sale wallpaper? Thanks in advance :D
Most probably somewhere around autumn sale. :)

Have you zoomed it to 100% ? It's a 2560x1200 image.
I don't think GoG posted the wallpapers on imgur this time, so I guess you're stuck with this one. :)
