Well, I'm happy to get my hands on the GOG DRM-Free download version, but owned this game on Steam anyway. I'm quite a fan of Ziggurat. It has procedurally generated levels, which gives it decent replayability. Lots of different monsters, which change from dungeon floor to dungeon floor (i.e. you get more advanced types on later floors). Also the end-of-floor bosses are different per game-run. Liking the weapon variety and upgrade variety too. Unlocking the extra game playable characters is an incentive to keep on coming back, too.

It is difficult, and I rarely complete a full run to the end. Normally I meet my maker on Floor 2 or 3.

They're also another round of GOG Connect games you can get if you own it on Steam (you'll have to connect your account and make your games public in the privacy settings).

I love all these free giveaways, but is there anything more frustrating than one of a game you already have?

this game is very fun, just bought in the previous discount, spent 22h so much fun!

These random giveaways are why I look through my Steam library every now and then and say, "When the hell did I get this?"

Yeah, I have no idea what 50% of my steam library even is.

I added Mafia & Mafia II because of your wrappers. I haven't tried Mafia II yet, but I put an hour of flawless gaming into Mafia this morning.

Thanks for all your hard work!
