GOG’s got Simon!
December 9, 2008
I mentioned before about a fairly new site called GOG.com (Good Old Games dot com), who release classic PC games, DRM-free and guaranteed to work on Windows Vista and XP, for a cheap price. I bought Fallout and Fallout 2 the day they were available on GOG.com.
Today, the folks at GOG.com announced the addition of a new publisher to the service: Adventure Soft! Woot! Classic point-and-click gaming goodness. The first game available is Simon the Sorcerer. According to the site:
Sit back, take a few deep breaths and prepare your diaphragm for Simon the Sorcerer, the first part of the classic point-and-click adventure game series by Adventure Soft. The game offers truckloads of parody and cliché humor and doesn’t mind breaking the old “fourth wall”. After all, what better way to prove someone is, say, a wizard, than to tell them “It says so when I move my mouse pointer over you”? To put a long story short, it’s hours of laughs for only $5.99.
Instant purchase! According to the site, they will be adding Simon The Sorcerer 2, The Feeble Files, and Waxworks in the future. Hopefully this will be the first of many adventure game releases to come.
