Playdead's classic minimalist platformers Limbo and Inside are being pulled from GOG next week, so grab 'em while you can (www.pcgamer.com)

If you haven't played them yet, I highly recommend them. I personally finished "Inside" in one sitting without planning to.

At least with GOG, you can keep the offline installers somewhere safe so you'll always have a DRM-less copy of the games.

Phrasing...

Inside is currently 90% off, so good time to buy it anyway. Limbo is full price, but it is a great game and well worth it in my opinion.

Good games on super deep discount—$2 or less—because their replayability is nonexistent. Like, you can replay them to re-experience the atmosphere, but you have no in-game incentive to do so.

Even the secrets are easy to find, and at most will net you a second playthrough.

Yeah, that's the only way to "grab 'em". 😶🤦🏼‍♂️

This the reason we need "Stop Killing Games" to succeed.

This has nothing to do with SKG.

The games aren’t being disabled, they’re being pulled from sale due to a legal/rights dispute. That’s not what SKG is about.
