You like Visual Novels, Anime and Manga right? Good, as GOG just added 10 that support Linux to their store.
Here's what they've added today, which are all discounted too:
- Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch.1 Onikakushi
- Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch.2 Watanagashi
- Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch.3 Tatarigoroshi
- Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch.4 Himatsubushi
- Higurashi When They Cry Hou - Ch. 5 Meakashi
- Sunrider: Mask of Arcadius (free game)
- Sunrider Academy
- Sunrider: Liberation Day - Captain's Edition
- fault - milestone one
- fault - milestone two side:above

Really good to see GOG expand some more, especially nice to see them have Linux builds ready right away.
