StingingVelvet: How does "monsters afraid of you" represent the word Witcher? It represents the content in that clue, not the title of the game. Unless I am mistaking your meaning.
I believe he was saying that the titles of the games are reflected in the clues themselves. For example, the word "Dark" appears in the clue for Alone in the Dark, and a Witcher hunts "monsters" which are mentioned in its clue.

Following that method, we can guess that certain words (or their near equivalents) are included in the titles of their respective games.


What game made you dream of the stars? (look for star/stars/space/galaxy)
What game made you ride with the outlaws? (look for outlaw/outlaws/desperado/desperados)
What game made you fear your past? (look for fear/afraid/past/history)
What game made you go to the underground? (look for underground/underworld/subway)
What game made you feel like a hero? (look for hero/heroes)
What game made monsters afraid of you? (The Witcher)
What game made you afraid of dark? (Alone in the Dark)

For myself, I have doubts that the monsters reference refers to the Witcher.
EDIT: Just reviewed the press release, so there's no doubt about it.

Imperium Galactica

What game made you ride with the outlaws?
Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive

What game made you fear your past?
Indigo Prophecy

What game made you go to the underground?
Dungeons & Dragons: Dragonshard

What game made you feel like a hero?
Forgotten Realms: Demon Stone

StingingVelvet: Sounds like a winner.

If Indigo Prophecy is the European version I will buy it. I'll probably get Dragonshard.
Yeah, I would probably buy Indigo Prophecy/Fahrenheit to. And, I figured Dragonshard and Demon Stone would round out GOG's collection having everything that was on the Ultimate Dungeons & Dragons compilation.

It was outright stated in the live stream that the monsters one is The Witcher 1.

GhostQlyph: It was outright stated in the live stream that the monsters one is The Witcher 1.
Yes, it was, and I missed that 15 seconds of the video due to real-life distractions. I've since gone back and re-watched it all, but I caught it too late to correct before you pointed it out.

Dream of the stars? Given that we now know that Atari will release the games, I'm thinking UFO: Enemy Defense (the original X-COM game)
If they get Indigo Prophecy I'd buy that in a heartbeat.

Even better if it was un-censored.
Any clues for Rollercoaster Tycoon?

- What game made you ride with the outlaws?
Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, Wild West theme? lol

Already got my digital backup of RCT3 from GG, just need digital backups of RCT 1&2.
What game made you go to the underground? Dragonshard?
What game made you feel like a hero? Neverwinter Nights 2?

Those are the only ones I could think of. The first Neverwinter Nights is already on here, and Steam also has the second one so I'm guessing it's on it's way to gog as well.

This.

Dragonshard and Demonstone would be great titles as well. Cant wait to see what the rest of these titles are.

StingingVelvet: Good one.

Here is youtube gameplay: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tiiJKtm0zM
He gets stopped by a locked wood door... I really don't know what to say to that.

Aatami: The outlaws one might not be Desperados; http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/dead-mans-hand
avatar
Lenriak: I think it is Desperados, the colours used in the outlaws clue image match those used in the Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive boxart. I'm looking at my box right now :)
It's not only colours - you can also see Kate and Cooper from that image http://wallpapersgallery.net/d/1540522-2/Desperados-Wanted-Dead-Or-Alive-634-8.jpg

Fragile Allegiance

(although I'm not sure if that still counts as an Atari game... it seems one of the founders of Gremlin (the original publisher) may now own the rights?)

Although looking at the blurry background, perhaps Star Control 2 fits?

Maybe it is just wishfull thinking on my part, but those hints sound like they are about "famous" games.

Some of the games mantioned here are just a little bit to obscure to warrant such a big announcment (IG or Hero - X, e.g.). So maybe we are lucky and get Homeworld and the like.

But GOG beeing GOG, they might just exaggerated a bit with the hints ...

Not sure they will sell NWN2 for $10 yet though, it's $20 on Steam. I guess they could do just the main game and the expansions in a separate pack, but I doubt it.

Wow, I was trying to compare the blurry image to the boxart, saw the colours were the same but couldn't quite pick out what part of the cover it was from. But you can definitely see Cooper and Kate from your pic in that blur :)
