Detective-mystery meets paranormal thriller!
A season pass for Cognition. An Erica Reed Thriller, an episodic point-and-click adventure story packed with challenging puzzles, branching paths, and a disquieting mood, is available on GOG.com 33% off. That's only $19.99 for the first week.
Erica Reed is an exceptional detective, but being special always comes at a price. Her extraordinary gift, allowing her a peek into the past by simply touching an object, makes her the ultimate bloodhound, and yet, causes excruciating mental pain. Her own past is marred irreparably by a personal tragedy. Can she conquer her demons by solving one morbid case after another, or will the unfading shadow of her brother's killer torment her forever? The mystery thickens, as someone starts leaving clues, that can only be uncovered with the use of Erica's unique ability. Who? Why? Can the troubled detective last long enough to find out?
So wait a minute--a season pass?
This may be something new for some of you, so we wanted to let you guys know what we mean by "Season Pass."Cognition. An Erica Reed Thriller consists of four episodes (fourth of which will be released on GOG.com, on 19 September 2013), each of them investigating a seemingly unrelated murder case. Each mystery is its own self-contained game, and when you buy a season pass you'll get all of the games in the "season". You're essentially preordering a season of episodic games. In this case, we already have Episodes 1, 2, and 3 available right now, so you're only preordering Episode 4, which is coming out in a week's time. By buying a season pass now, you're saving 33% off the price of the full season. So if this looks like your kind of thing, picking it up now saves you $9.99.
Uncover dark mysteries behind grisly killings and lead detective Erica Reed to absolution over four tension-filled episodes of Cognition. An Erica Reed Thriller, available DRM-free on GOG.com, for only $19.99. The offer lasts until Thursday, September 19, at 5:59AM GMT.

Come on, you know better than that! Of course, I tried The Cat Lady as you helped me with some of the tricky parts :P

Besides, I was having a chat with another community member here about games, I think :P

katiehal16: We're really excited to finally be on GOG, and for Episode 4's release next week! :D

stika: I think they're giving away discount codes if you own the previous episodes
avatar
katiehal16: To expand on this--the discount varies depending on how many episodes you already own. So:

- if you have 3 episodes, the Season Pass is only $9.99
- if you have 2 episodes, the Season Pass is only $15.99
- if you have one episode, the Season Pass is $22.99

I hope that helps clear it up. :)
That's interesting. I grabbed the Season Upgrade on Phoenix's website and two episodes on IGS, am I eligible for a discount?

I was just joking : ) And doing some hidden advertising for the recent GOG "pick 5 promo" :)
I always assumed you have something to do with quality controll and played Cognition before it was accepted :)

That would imply that I actually work >.>
Wow! I have been looking forward to this for a long time.
My issue is I already have parts 1&2, so I will be waiting for this to drop in price. Yet it is still a fantastic series to have here on GOG.

Hey, being paid for playing games is not work... at least not in your case : )

Think I'll wait until all "episodes" have been released and I've seen some decent reviews of it as a whole, then I'll think about buying the finished version.

I don't buy fragmented games.

And this episodic idea is something which worries me. It's been discussed before, but I don't like the possibility that a "season" of games could well be cut by a dev if they don't sell well, in pretty much the same way a TV series can be cut if there aren't the viewers, leaving gamers who have been playing right in the shit.

So no, I'll "pass" thanks.

It's not very different from TellTale games on GOG - I can't imagine what could stop Episode 4 (which is already finished) form coming out next week.
For more risky 'seasons' (Miskatonic, Pizza Morgana: dead after the first episode; just from the top of my head) - I'll worry when they come :)

Thank-you, I will go and send them a message.
What about the full season ?

If I have bought the full season from the official POS store, could I have a 100% discount here ?

It would be wonderful, but I don't have much hope for such request.
I'm curious, how does the 'coupon' work and does it stack with the current reduced price?
Looks awesome! can't really afford it right now (well i can, justify is a better word) so this goes on the top of my gog wishlist!
