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

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.
Anyway, you have three days to claim the game. Take your time... it's
not as if time is ticking down, second by second, moving you ever
close to the moment when the game is no longer available for free. No
rush.

Tic. Tic. Tic.
ugh. deck builders.
oh well, the number don't care.
