Hm, ye, I might have f*ed up the link.


But if you visit Gog, the giveaways are always on the opening page, and when not, you still get the name of the game from me.


Also, the free-period is usualy 48 hours (minus when I notice and report them), so yesterday it probably expired already. Though luck.

A second time this game is free. For 6 more hours from when I write this.


I think I won't report repeated giveaways.

What's this game about?


Well, back then there was Doom, there was Duke Nuk'em, there was Quake and there was Serious Sam!

[MrFlibble]

Except Serious Sam is over five years apart from Duke3D and almost a decade away from Doom. And, it only pretended to have "retro style gameplay of the classic titles while actually having its own way. Don't get me wrong, I like Serious Sam, if only for the Egyptian theme (I actually played more, and probably enjoyed a quite bit more, the Ancient Grome lookalike, Will Rock).

Pixelated to the point you have no idea what's happening, "classic", aka. "usless" looking interface, AND it is even rogue-like, meaning there was no level-designing due to lazyness, probably.


But hey, it IS free after all...


I'll definitely try it out. I mean what's to loose?

For 6 more hours this pixelated thing too can be yours for free.

Thank you for always posting to remind us to get the Free Goodies. Life is so busy and complicated that sometimes we forget about it without realizing it...

According to this article:
https://www.origo.hu/techbazis/20201...ition-gog.html

you have to install GoG-Galaxym go into the "recent" folder (the basic folder when GoGalaxy starts), and (if you don't own the game yet?) you'll have a banner to click on, which'll ask you to subscribe to the GoG-emails at least for the period you receive the game (then you can unsub).


Btw, GoG's newsletters are not that often, and many times ocntain additional discount options, so it's totaly fine to leave it turned on.


NOTE: I do have to game already from a previous promo, so I cann ot confirm the article, or at least can tell the banner is not there if you already have the game.

Build your own prison with this.
There is a campaign mode (always important), and a (by the sound of it) promising sandbox mode too.
