Robin Hood: Legend of Sherwood, Syberia 1&2, MegaRace 1,2,3, and more games from Anuman 70% off!

Discovery is one of the humans' most basic needs. We eat, we drink, we sleep, we mate, and then we go someplace new. Some of us are more adventurous than others, but the need to see what lies beneath the hills is firmly rooted in the human soul. That's why we always seek out new lands. That's why we're always fascinated by legends of lost civilizations. That's why the unknown is our favorite direction. Whenever we're given the chance, we like to go on an adventure! Oh yes, this can be a long and eventful weekend if you're ready for some [url=http://www.gog.com/promo/anuman_weekend_promo_230514]Adventures with Anuman!

One of the most recognizable adventure sagas must be the story of Robin Hood and his company of benevolent rogues. It has sprouted countless books, movies, TV series, and games. One of these games--and one of the best in existence, is Robin Hood: The Legend of Sherwood, a team-based real time strategy game from the developers of Desperados. You can control up to six different characters, each with his or her own set of skills and weapons. You will have to use these abilities wisely in order to succeed. There are many ways to finish each mission, but the challenge is always to find the best one. This weekend, lead the fight for justice, for only $2.99!

The stories of the lost land of have filled our imagination with amazing visions for ages. The adventure games fueled by those vision can set the mood for further exploration of the unknown. [url=http://www.gog.com/gamecard/syberia]Syberia, although it can be seemingly easy located on a map, is no less mysterious and strange than Atlantis. At least in the phenomenal point-and-clicks by the visionary Benoît Sokal, it is. If the earthly mysteries no longer excite you, you can always set out for the ultimate frontier, and explore space in Haegemonia: Gold Edition. Don't expect your journey towards stars to be peaceful and uneventful, though!

That's but a small part of our extensive Adventures with Anuman weekend offer. Titles of varied genre, size, and age wait for you in the promo page, and they're all 70% off until Tuesday, May 27, at 3:59AM GMT. Don't miss out!

Pica-Ludica: What I liked about this game is the fact that a lot of situations can be dealt with in different ways. Very often, there won't be just one way of solving a "puzzle", and the game rewards creativity, giving you more points if you try different things and come up with interesting solutions. You will spend some time experimenting with your inventory, trying to craft new items out of things you find on the island. I call it crafting because it's not just basic item combination (i.e. click item A on item B to get item C), you have actual recipes for various things. I had a lot of fun exploring the island and experimenting with what I found, and the game encourages and rewards that.

That said, I have found myself stuck a couple of times. Never to the point where I had to check a guide to progress further, but I had a few "rub everything on everything" and "click on everything" moments.

Also, for me, a great deal of the game's appeal came from the Jules Verne lore. The game has loads of little details which fans of the book will love, and I'm honestly not sure whether the world and the story tidbits will hold up as well for someone who's not familiar with the source material. It's still a nice survival point'n'click experience, with gorgeous music and lovely hand-drawn cut-scenes, as well as an interesting crafting mechanic.

So, I'd definitely recommend it, but don't expect it to be heavily story driven. It's more about exploration and experimenting. :)
Thanks for the write-up about Return to Mysterious Island Pica-Ludica, I decided to buy the game and it is posts like this that help with making a decision. +1

Errr............ Half of it is nearly impossible wishes.

The other half is Koei games, Square games, West Wood games, Lion Head / Peter Molyneux games, Bethesda Games, Troika game, Lucas Arts games, Microsoft Games, Gas Power Games, capcom games and some old games.

Come on, there must be at least one that can fulfill my wish

Pica-Ludica: I really recommend Return to Mysterious Island. It's a very enjoyable and intelligent game, especially if you like point'n'click adventures. See above. :)
Normally, I wouldn't wait and buy it, the thing is, I already have the DVD with both parts and Voyage to it - and I've already finished the first Return. There are unfortunately no bonuses in the GOG release...

The way to improve "fulfiulled wishes" is to vote for already-fulfilled ones?

No there is no way to check. That's is one of the problems of the wishlist since its not possible to check what you have voted for without scrolling through the whole wishlist and usually fullfilled wishes are not listed there anymore.
