Today GOG.com (http://www.gog.com), the delicious low-fat meal replacement for fans of DRM-free PC classics, announced an agreement with Enlight Software, famed publisher and developer from Hong Kong. Today’s press release announcing said deal is conveniently accompanied by the release of a game mentioned within the much-discussed agreement: Capitalism Plus (http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/capitalism_plus) is now available at GOG.com for $5.99, while Capitalism 2 (http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/capitalism_2), Seven Kingdoms Ancient Adversaries (http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/seven_kingdoms_ancient_adversaries), Seven Kingdoms 2 The Fryhtan Wars (http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/seven_kingdoms_2) and Warlords: Battlecry 3 (http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/warlords_battlecry_3) are planned to be added to the GOG.com catalogue in the near future. All games are available DRM-free, guaranteed to work on Vista and XP and so cheap that the global economic crisis would have been averted if we’d only paid executives in Good Old Games instead of millions of dollars.
Capitalism was hailed as “the most realistic, detailed business sim on the market” by PC Gamer and is still considered one of the best economic games of all time. The player takes the role of CEO of a corporation and has to decide how to create the most powerful company around and crush the competition. If you think you could be better than your boss at managing the company, try your luck in Capitalism Plus before you go to him and tell him about it. Seven Kingdoms series takes a more big-picture-oriented approach to world domination as you choose one of seven civilizations and create the ultimate empire. In this real-time strategy game, military force just won’t cut it; you have to use your diplomacy and trade skills to conquer the six other civilizations. So whether you’re a white-collared workaholic or a much taller and handsomer Napoleon, GOG.com and Enlight have something to scratch that world-conquering itch.
“Trevor Chan is one of the greatest visionaries in the industry, and it’s very exciting to add his great classics to our catalogue,” said Adam Oldakowski, Managing Director of GOG.com. “We believe that the outstanding games from Enlight Software will find even more fans thanks to GOG.com.”
Capitalism Plus (http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/capitalism_plus) is now available at GOG.com, with more games from Enlight Software planned for release in the near future. Stay tuned for more news concerning new deals, more new releases and new service features in the upcoming weeks.
