Re: FREE GAME: Hammerting

I passed since it didn't have good reviews. Even if I had it for free, I doubt I will play it!

Today on GOG we get:

* Hammerting
https://www.gog.com/en/game/hammerting
    Sort of a cross between "Dwarf Fortress",
    "Minecraft" and "SimCity", this game has you
    managing an underground dwarven settlement. It's
    not quite as deep as any of those, but makes up
    for it with a sense of humor. Unfortunately, it
    was released in an unfinished state, and much of
    its potential is unrealized, let down by poor UI
    and QOL. Had the developers stuck with it, the
    game might have been a classic; now it's just a
    bunch of interesting ideas that you wish might
    have been better implemented.

Still, it's not a TERRIBLE game, and it IS free, so that's two things
in its favor. You have GOG's usual 3-day time-limit to claim this one
before they start asking for money for it again.
