      has already been redeemed

    • +2

      All these codes are redeemed already. Funny how no-one who took any of the codes (except for futaris I assume) said so and thanked Infinite Monkee. Thanking somebody for a freebie is not so hard and difficult, is it? What has this community come to I wonder sometimes?

      • +1

        Those people who took the codes aren't even members of this site…

        • +3

          Well, maybe then something should be done with an option to make those comments only visible to members of the site.

        • @Lysander: bummer sorry they went so quick :s

  • +1

    where is the link to the game ? I can't seem to find this free game.
    It says in the front page but I don't see it.

    • +1

      near the bottom

      • +3

        thats what she said

      • Thanks a lot. I found it. I must be blind not seeing it couple of times I go through the page.

        • I checked it last night and assumed they had run out since I couldn't see it anywhere, i'll have to grab it when I get home.

  • +5

    Another freebie from GOG… I think all my GOG catalogue are freebies. I should play some of them - lol

    • +2

      Or show your appreciation and purchase a game through them :)

      • +1

        That'll only add to the pile of shame.

  • Is this game like Heroes of Might and Magic?

  • On an unrelated note, Blackguard special edition is $10.29 AUD

  • The Stalker and Witcher bundles on the main page are good value. I picked up Aartklash Legacy, Beyond Good & Evil, and Arcanum for a pittance from GOG's 5 hour long Flash sales too. Check back regularly.

  • 72,000 left :)

    I What is the best screen setting for 24inch monitor?

  • Thnx

  • only around 68K left at this posting

  • 64K left. Should pick up soon once americans wake up

  • 62.5k now

  • Age of wonders was a nice game.. good music..

  • 58.8k now.

  • 55,000 left right now.

  • 2 and a half hours ago I signed up and it said it will email me a link to the game or something along those words.

    I just got a sign up email straight away and nothing since.

    • GOG usually take longer than that to actually add the game to your library during these freebie promos (could be a day or two). You'll be emailed when it's in there.

      • -3

        Took about 3 hours.

        Downloaded and installed the game, played for about 3 minutes and closed then uninstalled it.

        • This cool story, brought to you by… Bro Incorporated.

        • Let me guess, the graphics from this 1999 game didn't impress you?

        • +1

          Kids of today ….

        • @lostn: the graphics didn't bother me (I play a text based RPG), the game play sucked.

          One of my favorite games (Age of empires II) is from 1999.

        • @Ebany: I'm 34.

        • @ezarc: ;D

        • +1

          @ezarc: If you were expecting it to be one of those games because it has "Age of" in the title, you didn't do your research.

        • @lostn:
          I wasn't expecting anything and it was still disappointing, I did read a few reviews of it that were mostly high scoring.

          I'm not sure why you care so much for my opinion of a game I didn't like and are trying take shots at me for not liking it.

          If people get all nostalgic for a old game they used to play thats great, to me it wasn't worth the wait even at zero cost.

  • Got the game added to my account within 15 minutes.

  • Thanks OP. Just under 17,000 left now

  • Thanks OP!

  • about 9k left. Hurry if you want it

  • You can now buy Age of Wonders 3 for $5.99 USD. More details at:
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/173484

  • Bloody constantly crashes on Windows 64 bit even when set in desktop screen mode..basic grahics

    • These old PC games are mostly designed to run on old 16-bit Windows like Windows 98. The last Windows version that can run them without too much modifications or work arounds is Windows XP.

      Try this:
      Right click on the ".exe" file and select "Properties". Select the "Compatibility" tab and check the checkbox "Run this program in compatibility mode for:".
      Try Windows XP then Windows 98 if problems persist.

    • win8.x?

  • Thanks for the classic

  • I take it this has expired?

    • All keys are gone now but think I already owned a copy which would mean my key is "gift-able", I assume you missed out?

      [Edit]: Just checked, I do already own a copy on 2 of my accounts so I have a copy I can gift you, let me know.

      p.s. If I don't respond right away it just means I died from sleep exhaustion and will respond 2morrow.
