I liked Kingdom of Loathing and I am certain that this game is awesome, but the devs have abandoned the GOG version (Reckonin' at Gun Manor DLC specifically). What's more, they have lied on the GOG forums and elsewhere, repeatedly promising to release it "next week" over the course of 1 (ONE) year and making ridiculous excuses like "programmer on vacation" and "doing one last batch of tests now! Thank you for your patience!" which seem like open mockery to me. Don't buy.
Hmm, I cannot find my review that I made a year ago, so here it is again. Your success depends not on skill, but on pure random chance. This "game" is little more than a lottery of random events. You travel the galaxy from point to point. At each point something random happens (half the time it's an enemy ship attacking you). If you get mostly beneficial random events, if the game decides to give you resources you need to upgrade your ship, than you win. If not, than you lose. And you have little say in how to upgrade your ship. Want to launch drones? Well, have to randomly wander the map, with random events that will randomly (the same event can have completely opposite outcomes each time you get) give you resources or destroy your ship. Usually they destroy your ship. A "game" — it's not actually a game — for masochists with a lot of free time. Gets two stars for the art.
