Up to 90% off Blackwell, Gemini Rue, Deponia, Blackguards 2, The Raven and more!

It's Gamescom week! All eyes are turned towards the big guys and the smaller players for a sneak peek at the next year in gaming. We too are watching with anticipation to see what new gaming adventures, trials, and exciting tribulations await us in the not so distant future. While we watch and listen, these four days are all about some of the awesomest adventures you have to catch up on - it's our sorta-extended <span class="bold">Gamescom Adventure</span> with deals up to 90% off!





It's a weekend filled with adventure from some of the best in the biz! Two titans - Deadelic and Wadjet Eye Games - come together each with their own unique flavor of classic point and click adventure. From Wadjet Eye's classically pixelated tales are gems like the famous, supernatural Blackwell series, or the dystopian cyberpunk story of Gemini Rue (will you see the twist coming?). For an even more twisted story of a post-apocalyptic humanity, check out Dead Synchronicity, a game that has at one point been described as "Guybrush meets Mad Max meets 12 Monkeys".

Then, there are the Daedalic adventures - games from a team that has nearly perfected the modern point and click. You can't not try the Deponia trilogy, featuring beautiful cartoony graphics and heaps of brilliant humor, all set on a garbage filled planet known as Deponia - full of gadgets, gizmos, and the weirdest most likeable gang of characters you'll meet. Though it's not quite your standard adventure game - there's plenty of pointing, clicking, and adventure to be had in the critically acclaimed Blackguards 2, a completely hexy, turn based, tactical RPG which will either break you or excite you with its plethora of fresh tactical options.

Joining the adventure is also The Raven - Legacy of a Master Thief with a special Linux premiere! This point-and-click adventure from the creators of The Book of Unwritten Tales embodies everything that made crime mystery novels so popular.





Ready for the show - it's our extended <span class="bold">Gamescom Adventure</span> - with 25+ tales and trials on sale at up to 90% off. The promo will last until Tuesday, August 11, 3:59 AM GMT.
Ain't it a bit early for a Weekend Promo?
Wait, what?
Wait a minute...

... don't tell me you are posting a weekend promo prematurely to avoid releasing a new game today. That's unacceptable.

you guys are confused. It's thursday, not Friday. Happens to me too all the time.

Today is the day that you release: Indiana Jones and the infernal machine, Soldier of Fortune, ST Elite Force II or Klingon honor guard. The wheel of time is okay too. ;)

I wish it was Friday.
Well, crap. Can now add Blackguards 2 and Dead Synchronicity to the pile of possible near-future purchases.
*confused* And I thought today was Thursday ;-)
The gog bears stole Dr Who Tardis and jumped forward a day.
Can't have an adventure weekend without Gabriel Knight......
And not one but two games I don't own. There truly is something wrong with the force today.
lol gog!
You almost scared me that I missed a day when I was supposed to be at work :D
So what's with the weekend promo on thursday? :D
Well, since the sale is here, what are the standouts among the discounted games? None of these are on my wishlist, but perhaps there's a gem or two worth playing, something I missed or overlooked. I'm no stranger to adventure games; I own Another World, Grim Fandango, I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream, The Last Express, Sanitarium, Realms of the Haunting, and the Sam & Max series here on GOG (as well as all the freebies). I also have at least a few more on my Xbox 360.

So, any recommendations?
Starting the day off confused (more than normal I mean...)
No, no, no - promo ahead of time is good but a release is a must on Thursday.
