GOG.com Tumblr hibernation

There are many places where we put our content. To make sure that all the stuff we post is top-notch and could not be better, we sadly sometimes must lessen our presence in a certain place.

Today, time has come for us to say maybe not a goodbye, but a goodnight and see you in the springtime to Tumblr as we go into hibernation in this outlet.

However, this doesn’t mean we’ll not ever talk again! You can find us in many other places on the Internet to keep up with our shenanigans.

We post daily updates on goings-on in terms of releases and promotions on our site in the news section.

You can also talk to us in social media. The major ones that you can reach out to us on are:

Twitter (@GOGcom) and Facebook, where we post regular updates on games, contests and live events,
Our Twitch channel (/GOGcom), where we stream daily,
The official GOG.com forum, where you can talk to us and other gamers and discuss your favorite titles,
Our LinkedIn page, where you can connect with us professionally.

Thanks for all the great times we’ve had here and see you all around!

You remember Leisure Suit Larry Laffer, right? The poster boy for polyester. No brave knight was as determined to slay the evil dragon, no galactic emperor was as hell-bent on conquering the Universe, no one was ever as devoted to their noble quest as Larry is devoted to his objective: getting lucky. Over the course of 7 games–scratch that, 6! Larry 4 is just a myth–the wannabe womanizer worked his disputable charm on countless women and got shot down more times than a kid spending his summer vacation playing Galaga in the arcade. Yet, he always bounced back and never lost faith in the true love that lasts for a whole night. You can follow his legend from the very beginning, to all of the brief happy endings.

This one will feel like a reunion with a dear childhood friend. Provided you were a child in the early 90s and your household was one of those blessed with the presence of SEGA’s 16-bit gaming system.Cutting to the chase:

Freedom Planet is a love letter to classic Sonic the Hedgehog games! A love letter that is 9000 pages long (in 8-sized colorful font).

A variety of quests invite players to hunt monsters, earn gold on dangerous missions, and interact with the characters they meet in a web of alliances and treachery.

The digital installment of the game (similarly titled **The Witcher Adventure Game**) is now out on GOG.com, offered with 10% discount this week (or 40% off until Dec. 27 if you were taking part in the beta-tests). But we’ve also prepared a special creative contest, in which you can score one of three physical copies of the game! How to do that? You will find all the contest details right here.

Now, we wonder if our beloved board game nerd, wilwheaton, is going to play it on TableTop :-)
