Turning stardust into wonders.

Age of Wonders: Planetfall is now available for pre-order DRM-free. Pre-order now to get the Paragon Noble Cosmetic Pack.

The Star Union didn't survive the cataclysm. Forge your own path in the ruins, deal with the other surviving factions, rebuild a collapsed empire in a deep 4X sci-fi strategy of epic scale. Master the turn-based combat or the intricacies of this emerging economy as you uncover the truth behind the fall of a great civilization.

Grab the Deluxe Edition which includes the game's OST, Artbook, an Infested Worlds scenario planet, and two cosmetic packs. Or go for the Premium Edition which also includes the game's Season Pass.
Owners of any Age of Wonders game on GOG.com get 10% off the Premium Edition during the pre-order period.

GOG.com: Age of Wonders: Planetfall
While we're speaking of Planetfall...I'd really love having all the Infocom games here on GOG.

I'm not sure what the value is of having those on gog. For one, many had physical extras that you can't get any more. The only way they'd be worth the money is if they came in one low-cost package containing all or most of the games. For now, you'll have to be happy with Zorks and Planetfall, I guess. I wish the Zork collection had come with the Enchanter series, though.

As to the physical extras: GOG could deliver those as digital goodies - as they did with their other old games.

There is such a package already: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lost_Treasures_of_Infocom

"All" that GOG would have to do (if they ever manage to obtain the distribution rights - and that's a huge "if") is to sell the same package - only in digital form.

Heck, they could even split them up in two to three packages, as they did with the goldbox games, etc.

I guess. Although "Classic Text Adventure Masterpieces of Infocom" seems more complete, but still missing a few that, like the Buck Rogers gold box games, could just be left out for now/ever. Not that wishes mean anything, but it's an old game with less than 600 wishes. Unlike the gold box games, these will likely never be transferred to gog wholesale and so Activision is probably the one to badger. Given the number of Activision titles on gog, I'm actually surprised it isn't here already.

Edit: Also, a picture of lint is also not exactly the same as a plastic bag with lint, but I guess it's not necessary to have the physical objects to play the games.

Is there any plan to add achievements to the GOG version? AoW3 was kind of a big letdown for the GOG version and I'm not sure if I could rely on them to improve.
