I used to play this as a kid on my dad's computer, and that's already a good reason to see it preserved forever by GOG, but that's not the only one. This game is a gem: it's not revolutionary in terms of mechanics, but the worldbuilding and the factions are really flashed out and interesting. The graphics are, to this day, lovley to look at, with lots of details and nice animations on the buildings, troops, maps and interface. It's not a revolutionary RTS like some of the big players, but it can be a surprising game if you give it some time.
Po raz pierwszy zetknąłem się z tą grą w czasach podstawówki i od tamtej chwili stała się ona dla mnie czymś wyjątkowym. Choć minęło wiele lat, nadal regularnie do niej wracam, ponieważ dostarcza mi niepowtarzalnych wrażeń i świetnej zabawy. Ma w sobie coś, co sprawia, że za każdym razem odkrywam ją na nowo, niezależnie od tego, ile razy już w nią grałem. Uwielbiam możliwość swobodnego eksplorowania i przedłużania rozgrywki według własnych zasad. Dlatego chciałbym zobaczyć ją na GOG – dla mnie to idealna platforma, ponieważ preferuję gry w wersji instalacyjnej, a nie w formie powiązanej z kontem, jak na Steam. Możliwość posiadania tej gry w kolekcji na GOG sprawiłaby, że mógłbym do niej wracać bez żadnych ograniczeń, ciesząc się nią dokładnie tak, jak lubię – bez DRM, w pełnej swobodzie, tak jak kiedyś.

Valkyria Chronicles
Valkyria ChroniclesSet in a fictitious continent reminiscent of the 1930s, Valkyria Chronicles depicts Europe divided in two and ruled by two super powers: the Empire and the Federation. The Empire has set its sights on invading a small neutral country called Gallia, situated in the middle of the two superpowers territories, in an attempt to secure invaluable natural resources. Within this struggle a hero named Welkin, and his fellow soldiers of the Federation's 7th Platoon, are fighting back against the invasion and the Empires attempts to unify the continent under its power. During the ensuing war the Federation discovers that the Empire possesses a secret weapon, known as the "Valkyria" - an ancient race with special powers thought to exist only in legends. With this new discovery the fate of the Federation's ability to turn the tide of the war, and the hope for a better future, hang in the balance. “CANVAS” graphics engine: A unique engine that produces breath taking images that look like watercolour paintings in motion. “BLiTZ” tactical battle system: Experience strategic manoeuvring of units combined with conventional RPG gameplay, all layered on top of the moment to moment action afforded by real-time controls as players command each squad member and tank in battle. Epic storyline: Players will immerse themselves in the epic struggle for freedom, as the fate of the world lies in the hands of Welkin and the members of the 7th platoon. Customisation: Over 100 customisable characters allow players to create a variety of platoons to suit each battle’s needs.

ChuChu Rocket!
ChuChu Rocket!The object of the game is to guide one or more mice ("ChuChus") around a board into one or more goals while avoiding cats ("KapuKapus") roaming the board. The mice and cats all move in predictable paths by always turning right when hitting a wall head on, by following corners or by turning around when in a dead end. ChuChu Rocket!'s multiplayer mode revolves around up to four players placing arrows on the level at once, trying to direct mice into their own rockets and cats into other players' rockets (any cat that reaches a rocket removes a percentage of the mice within). Each player can only have three arrows on-screen at a time and cannot place them on other players' arrows or their own arrows. Arrows would disappear over time, or could be removed by a player placing his fourth arrow (which would eliminate the first arrow placed, thus leaving three). Although a simple concept, this quickly becomes frenetic with the relentless speed of the mice and four players fighting over them.
