Legend of Grimrock, Tiny and Big, Spacechem, and other indie titles 50% off
After a good share of classics, and an AAA title already released the week, [url=http://www.gog.com/en/promo/indie_weekend_mix/]Indies Invade! this weekend on GOG.com, with a special 50% discount for maximum impact! Their plan is to confuse you with their puzzling space-chemistry, reforge your genes, send hordes of stick-figure people to colonize your home, slice you to pieces with a laser, and--if you somehow manage to survive all this--entrap you in a moldy, old-school dungeon. No, make that two dungeons. A preemptive strike might still save us, so here's some intelligence on the invaders:
Let's start with the one that is most likely to keep you up long in the night. Legend of Grimrock reaches to the roots of the dungeon crawler genre to deliver an experience that you longed for all these years after finishing Eye of The Beholder and Dungeon Master games. Create a party of unfortunate souls tossed into the grim depths of the Grimrock dungeon, and find out just how much truth is there in the legends saying that one simply cannot escape from it. In this classic, first person perspective RPG, drawing a well-documented map on a pad of paper is just as essential for your survival as swords, sorcery, and a keen eye to spot secret buttons.
Tiny and Big: Grandpa's Leftovers is--by any definition--a different game. A physics based puzzler with comic-book aesthetics, monolithic otherworldly landscape, and odd sense of humor, it really stands out from the invading squadron of indies. As Tiny, the protagonist of the game, you will use advanced rocket science, precise laser surgery, and--the all time favorite--a grappling hook, all to get you through the puzzle-packed wasteland. At the end of this (literal and metaphoric) sandbox awaits your arch-enemy, the notorious bully Big, whom Tiny must defeat to reclaim what's rightfully his. Wouldn't you go through all that trouble to reclaim a pair of heirloom undies? Sure you would.
Torchlight is distilled clicky-clicky looty-looty goodness, wrapped up in an awesome package of great graphics and charming visuals that make this one of the best action RPGs to grace the GOG catalog. If murdering an entire dungeon of monsters and looting their cooling corpses for the best weapons you can find is wrong, well, we don’t want to be right, because this is a huge pile of fun for a very small stack of cash. With Torchight 2 due to come out soon, this is one of your last chances to pick the original smash hit up before the sequel sucks you and hijacks your brain and clicking fingers!
All these as well as Darwinia, Spacechem, and Geneforge 1 - 5 are in our Indies Invade! promo this weekend, and don’t forget that you can also pick up all of the Ultima games from GOG.com at 50% off this weekend as well.
