 Well, I was wondering when GOG was going to get back into the act.
Their spring sale has been going strong for a week, but its only now
that they're offering the give-away that usually accompanies their
sale. Well, better Nate than lever...
  * Book of Demons
https://www.gog.com/en/game/book_of_demons
    A Diablo-esque hack-n-slasher, except instead of weapons
    you fight with a deck of cards. I don't think I need to
    express to you how much a deck-building mechanic turns me
    off at this point. I mean, I'm sure it's a fine mechanic,
    but it's just not anything that appeals to me. It's got
    a certain lack of polish too, that might make you rethink
    getting it too; reviews indicate a balancing issues and
    a certain grindy  repetitiveness of gameplay. It's
    conceptually a good game, it seems, and if you grit your
    teeth and bear with some of its jankiness, you'll
    probably have fun... but it may require more effort
    than you think it is worth to get there.
 

Wasn't this given away by Epic at some point?  Maybe it's just similar as simliar games are being given away like political flyers.
Oh well, it's Gog, so I picked it up.  I suppose there's a remote chance I'll like it.
