After the 3rd fix today, both countdown clocks of this promo are still wrong.

Thank you for those excellent recommendations! I got all of them except the Disciples games, Robinhood, and Banished. Maybe you can tell me more about why you like each of those?
Crack that whip! I swear to GOG, the programmer slaves are getting lazier and lazier.

Nice sale! Some good stuff there. Awesome game - played it on Linux when the developers were awesome enough to compile and release for free a Linux version because they knew they wouldn't be able to do it themselves...

... then promptly bought it when it showed up here as a thank you. Really unique, colorful fun game with a ton of interesting mechanics going on. Games like this are why I'm glad I still play on my PC.

As I said in the dedicated forum, for those interested and because there is no entry in WineHQ Database, Thea: the Awakening seems to work fine with Wine 3.5.

LOL good timing - was just gushing about this above ;)

Any opinions on Overfall?

Quite the selection this week. Might pick up the few i'm missing, but will depend on how hooked i get to Battletech.

Unfortunately Pharaonic a daily deal . :(

You're welcome! Well, [dumb mode ON]i like them because they're good games[/dumb mode OFF]. :P

Disciples: a game similar to HoMM series, but plays somewhat differently. Sure there is exploration to be made, stuff to build, folks to recruit, but combat is a lot different from HoMM series (you can't stack units, you can't move them around the battlefield, they gather experience and become stronger over time; these are the key differences). That said, i dig the graphics of DII very much, it's a very beautiful game, even if it's a little on the dark side which may not appeal to some.

Robin Hood: a great stealth tactics game similar to Commandos or Desperado. If you enjoyed these two games, i guess you also enjoy RH especially if you like the hero. If you've never played anything similar, well, in a few words: you have a bunch of folks under your control and you try to do what must be done in the most stealthy way; while you can kill enemy soldiers, it is more advisable to sneak past them. On top of the very good gameplay, the graphics are very detailed.

Banished: an excellent town building game and my second favourite, after Anno 1404. I like the fact that the whole game revolves around the survival of your people, you really have to care about your folks and be prepared for the harsh winter. If you enjoyed a city build game before, definitely try it.

24-Hour Sale on Pharaonic. There should be about 6+ hours left as of this posting, give or take.

Sorry - I thought that you stated "Dead Deal." That's what I get for having a fast reading speed and not slowing down to process the roses. :)

Hehe, I kept an eye on the game for a few months, even bought french and polish boxed copies in waiting for a sale on gog, but I failed to make it properly working on my PC with wine (tried the linux earlier build, it was very interesting indeed, but I was so sad my retail copy didn't work I completely stop trying).

The funny thing is that the solution hinted by darktjm right at the time I was going to stop tracking Thea, was in fact the good one. Thanks to him again ! :-)

Always good to see a strategy sale! Picking up some GOG like Warrior Kings and probably Knights and Merchants, which gets even better with the labor-of-love remake available online (*) to be applied over the version of GOG.

(*) Just check the mod spotlight in the game card

KaM Remake official website

Edit: Clarified and added links for the remake. The remake requires installing it over the regular version, provided by GOG.

Cool, I just bought Thea. I didn't realize it was a game with European Paganism.

I wish there was a list somewhere that listed games with European Pagan themes in them. Games full of Gods and Goddesses, creatures, lovely European Pagan-type music, and all kinds of myths. I love this stuff, but sadly I either can't find those types of games or they just don't make that many of them.

I just bought Corsairs Gold :)

Nice game, but hard as hell. For me at least ;)
