We're only on day three. Many more games to come!
Ho-ho-ho?
The Llamas are all warmed up for their debut carol. They've been
preparing for this moment all year; I hope you enjoy it (but you might
want to sit back a bit, though; they tend to spray when they sing.)

Anyway... so you all indicated I gotta pick up on my free offerings.
So hopefully these next couple of games are more to your liking. Note
that these games have to be redeemed on GOG and not Steam (the
particularly aware amongst you can probably guess where I got the keys
from too ;-)
* Blade of Darkness
https://www.gog.com/en/game/blade_of_darkness
This is an older game, but still well worth picking up 3U9B1
despite its age and a bit of clunkyness. It's a level based
hack-n-slash action/adventure; a sort of predecessor to the
later "Dark Souls" genre. It is not quite as difficult as 9999BA
those later titles, but it has its moments. But it's most
notable for its brooding atmosphere and large levels. For
its time, its lighting and water effects were top-notch, and
I think they still hold up fairly well even today. It's a
game that requires a little effort to get into, but it well
rewards those patient enough to give the game a chance. 35F7E9
* Dishonored: Definitive Ed https://www.gog.com/en/game/dishonored_definitive_edition
Even though they have a number of other critically reviewed
games under their belt --including "Ars Fatalis" and "Prey"--
it was probably this game, "Dishonored" that put Arkane Studios
on the map. Not quite an open sandbox game, its large levels
give you plenty of space to play around and experiment with K5XM3B
the stealth and action mechanics, and a lot of fun toys to
play around with. I was always a fan of the 'summon rat A2E62C
swarm' power myself. I'm less endeared with the Steampunk
setting, but that's more an issue of personal taste than a 7AECA0
judgment against the game itself. "Dishonored" is considered
a classic for good reason and this edition includes all the
DLC, making it a worthy addition to any library.
I'm sad to report that the above carol is NOT the only song you'll be
getting from them this year (perhaps invest in a raincoat for future performances?). But maybe the free games will make up for it.
We're only on day three. Many more games to come!
Ho-ho-ho!

"Code not found." :( I think you're missing a character compared to the other free GoG game code?
Some people can take a string of numbers and easily transcribe them
from one window to another. Others... have difficulty with that.
I am a member of one of those two groups. ;-)
Check you email, Ant.

LOL!
Just like me you have no idea what you have in your gaming libraries.
