Up to 85% off the best schoolnight companions: Mount & Blade: Warband, Inquisitor, Hocus Pocus, Stronghold Crusader HD, and more!



You know what comes after school, right? Plenty of chilly <span class="bold">School Nights</span> full of homework, online chatting with that hot new classmate, and videogames! Some of them are here to help relieve the stress, some might let you apply all this newly acquired knowledge, and some will challenge your logical thinking and time management skills. But they are all perfectly good reasons to keep alt-tabbing away from school projects, and they are going for up to 85% off!

The Inquisitor is no knight in shining armor because their tortured, bleeding world has no room for heroics. It is a place of strife, misery, lost souls, and unforgiving yet rewarding old-school sensibilities, that will challenge both your role-playing skills and your wits.

With its massive battles punctuated by moments of brutal physicality and its addictive sandbox gameplay that lets players build their own story, Mount & Blade: Warband arguably stands among the most immersive medieval simulators to ever fight for our affections.

Passing your knowledge, your gold, and your genetic imperfections down to your platforming offspring is the best way to help them forge their own Rogue Legacy and vanquish evil, one procedurally generated dungeon at a time.



Lock the door, put your headphones on, make lame some excuse for not coming down for dinner, and fire up your favorite <span class="bold">School Nights</span> game: is it Rune Classic, Bombshell, Stronghold Crusader HD, Secret Agent, or one of the many others?
The promo will last until October 7, 9:59 AM UTC.

Cecco: A couple of Linux ready platformers that I am sure I will play, and was waiting for: Realms of chaos (missed it the last time) and Rogue Legacy! I'm curious about Rune and Inquisitor but Win only and not sure of when I would play them.

hyperagathon: Inquisitor works flawlessly in (newer versions of) WINE, if that helps.
Wine or Wine-Staging? Because the last time I tried it, it had these huge red squares on the screen and it requires a staged patchset to run it without the red squares: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32490

hyperagathon: At the time, I had to use Staging due to that bug. On Arch, though, I don't think there's a difference now (looking at the version numbers, WINE is 1.9.19, Staging 1.9.18)? I'd have to test it. In any case, Staging certainly fixes that bug, and fits under the "newer versions" disclaimer.
Arch already has Wine-Staging 1.9.19 at the moment but yeah, any recent Wine Staging version should work for Inquisitor :)

eiii: Staging is not a "newer version" of Wine, it's a different branch.

eiii: So it still does not run properly with vanilla Wine?
The patchset is still staged so probably not.

eiii: That's what I'm afraid of too as the bug still isn't marked as fixed.
As long as you can easily switch between Wine and Wine-Staging, this shouldn't be too much of a problem :)
