Re: Good Old Games deals
Have a butcher's at the reviews on GOG. Because as I recall, Trüberbrook's unfortunately a bit of a dud (which is likely at least partly why it's being offered as freebie).

Re: Good Old Games deals
I usually only listen to Adventure Gamers reviews when it comes to this genre, since this kind of game often gets panned by modern gamers in user reviews. They (Adventure Gamers) give it a 70, so yeah, not great. I will at least try it though - but 70 is definitely a bit below my threshold.Anonymous Bosch wrote: ↑Sun Oct 01, 2023 1:09 amHave a butcher's at the reviews on GOG.

Re: Good Old Games deals
It's a beautiful looking game, and I love the art-style, but the game itself is rather gloomy and dull, both in its humor and subject matter. I must be pretty far in it, and so far there's only been one part that really made me smile, which was a definite reference to 2001 via a HAL-like computer that you have to outsmart.Carpet_pissr wrote: ↑Tue Oct 03, 2023 10:55 amI usually only listen to Adventure Gamers reviews when it comes to this genre, since this kind of game often gets panned by modern gamers in user reviews.

Re: Good Old Games deals
i've grabbed all of these in the past, except the 'prologue' (read: 'demo') ones - nothing new here if you've been keeping up over the past decade.LordMortis wrote: ↑Mon Jan 15, 2024 8:45 am 50 free games... Not sure what's shovelware. I do see they've given a number away before

Re: Good Old Games deals
I'm sure I have some on orher platforms.
I'm also sure I won't ever play some if these.
That being said. If it's free, it's for me! Grabbed everything that wasn't already listed as owned.

Re: Good Old Games deals
probably my all-time overall favorite driving, racing, and crashing game, tho Wreckfest (from the same devs, also a great game) is way more technically advanced. and i actually liked FlatOut 1 more than FlatOut 2/Ultimate Carnage, but you can't go wrong with anything from Bugbear.

Re: Good Old Games deals
Agree with all of that.
I love Wreckfest…it’s hilarious and gorgeous…but Flatout 2 is just addictive and fun as hell…it has something that Wreckfest lacks…heart maybe.
Wreckfest on iPad is not great however (love it on console).

The best feature is it can adjust the difficulty and length of the game, IIRC.
