The basic premise is that this is an American-made Ecchi Visual Novel about a school for those with disabilities. The Main Character, who you play as, has a heart condition,specifically 'cardiac arrhythmia and congenital heart muscle deficiency,' and qualifies him for the school. The game takes place over a full year, and you're given the chance woo one of 5 girls with various disabilities. If that description sounds like the should be a disgusting mess of a representation about the disabled... You'd actually be wrong. This game has a very strange history which honestly makes it even more surprising in some ways that it's not exploitative. The game was brainstormed on the infamous message board / forum 4-Chan, at first as a concept and various character designs to my understanding. But then the game designers and artists and everyone else who gathered together (I'm quoting from memory after a brief wiki glance for the heart info,) sat down and made a relatively serious game that doesn't gloss over any of the issues involved. As an added bonus, the creators of the included the ability to turn off the more adult (as in sexual,) content, so that would make it easier to adapt to GOG. I definitely reccomend this game.

One of my top favorite free games ever! Not quite as worried about this game since it is already widely available in many ways, but still a great idea to preserve this game for the future and hopefully still for free. The games concept seems really weird, but it is actually an excellent visual novel with great characters and story with so much heart to it. Even if this does not get picked, I highly recommend downloading and playing this game and keeping it safe.

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

TOCA 2: Touring Car Challenge
TOCA 2: Touring Car ChallengeTouring Car Challenge: TOCA 2 is the sequel to TOCA Championship Racing. Rather than focusing on traditional racing elements, Codemasters has taken the mechanics and structure of British Touring Car Championship and slapped it into a PlayStation CD. Because of this, the TOCA series is considered a niche racing game; something on the outskirts of the mainstream.
