[FREE] System Shock 2 [ENDED] (GoG) + Summer Event + Maybe Spelunky (GoG)

Also, is that not the wrong cover for Pool of Radiance? I thought it looked like this, while the one shown here is for the sequel, Ruins of Myth Drannor

I might be able to afford one of the Gold Box packs, we'll see.

Hehe, this looks very familiar ;)

Is that this pack?

How much XP did you get for the purchase? To try and get an idea of how much you have to spend to unlock the free games. Doing all the badges and checking in the 14 days, should get you 4,500 XP so you would need 500 more to unlock Spelunky, unless they add more badges or other ways to get XP later.

This is for GOG so shouldn't matter, unless the key you get works on Steam?

GOG doesn't give steam keys so I don't see why System Shock 2 would be removed from the giveaway list.

Here's a notification :)

This shows the methods.

Basically, you can "check in" each day for 100 XP, complete a few tasks once for XP, and then purchase games for more. :)

I guess you already tried using wine or virtual box?

I have GOG galaxy on Mac and it says in fine print that a Linux version is on the way

As a dual boot Win7/Linux user it makes more sense to have a more completed client and focusing on it before porting it to other platforms. What is the point of having such an unfinished client on Linux? For me you are just being inpatient.
Just weeks ago the client couldn't even launch Witcher 3 properly so for the Universe sake, give them time.

that event was years ago :)

(and it was more like DLC than games)

GOG for me is almost always better for single-player games simply because you own the games, can keep them forever and install them on any machine you like.

I wonder how many takes that took.

I got an extra 500XP somehow. Have 3600 with 1/14 check-ins.

It's also worth noting that everyone will get some free XP if GOG's "Twitch Plays" challenges are achieved, so potentially free Spelunky for all! That's detailed in their announcement.

GOG Plays on Twitch.tv/GOGcom
Join us for the grand Twitch plays event and help achieve greatness in Stardew Valley and Grim Fandango Remastered. For every challenge we complete everyone will get an extra XP boost. The first, Stardew Valley, event begins Thursday, June 9, at 4:00 PM UTC – where you will be tasked with the greatest feat of all: to plant a Parsnip. It's going to be all kinds of ridiculous.

Not at the moment. GOG Connect only applies to certain games for a limited window of time. For the next few days those titles are: Defender's Quest: Valley of the Forgotten, Door Kickers and Kona.

"I can't handle that much quality in my game distribution!"

GOG deals in DRM free games, not Steam games. You get an installer and you can use it on any computer as many times as you want.

For every challenge we complete everyone will get 300 XP, regardless of whether they participated or not. An 100 XP boost will be handed out as consolation prize should we fail our objective. But that's not gonna happen. Right?

I already own all four promo games... ;'p

This certainly brings back the "wonderful" memories of Twitch playing DS...
