I’m not too sure about those Daedalic games but Shadow Tactics for $12 is a steal.

I was just about to post that

not sure if it’s any good, but it’s free!

I might actually have it for Android; I’d have to check. (I bought a couple of Humble Bundle for Android things back five years ago.)

Waking Mars was pretty neat. I also bought another one for Osmos just 'cause I wanted it on my phone too.

Huh, I must’ve missed that. Unless you mean on GOG or something?

Edit: yes, I have ~~the game~~ Dragonfall on GOG already; different name, probably essentially the same game.

I’m not too sure now… I see I have purchased some games on Steam all on the same day. And Shadowrun wouldn’t be a game I’d pay money for. So probably it was part of a bundle.  
found it! 1 Euro for Broken Sword 5 and Tesla effect bundle with these two.

Broken Sword 5 is a game I’d buy — bought — on GOG in a Broken Sword bundle. One of those where it doens’t make sense to only buy three out of five 'cause it’s the same price, so I’ve got Broken Sword 1 & 2 on GOG and Humble.

I also seem to have something called Shadowgrounds.

heh… I have the DELUXE DLC now for that shadowrun… still it’s in my “free category” = games I will play only once I finished all the others I paid for.

I have Broken Sword 1 - 3 on CD and 4/5 on Gog/Steam

I borrowed 1 & 2 from the library around '01 or '02. I seem to recall dying in #1 (luckily I’d saved just prior) but try as I might that didn’t happen in the remastered version. 😛

At first I had some graphical glitches in Windows Me but I somehow managed to get it to work anyway.

for $1 only…  
24 games including especially _Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island_, a game by Bill Tiller (the artist of Curse of Monkey Island) that does remind of another certain piratey adventure game…

… with more cleavage 😉

It got only average reviews, but for $1 you really can’t go wrong… if only to admire those beautiful backgrounds.  
And you get 23 other forgettable games too.

After reading several posts from you, I really think that you should take more of your pills. Or less if they have a blue color.
