giom, I’ve always been intrigued by the concept of Event[0], if still available. I’d love to post about my favorite puzzle of the game! Laughing

Lady Kestrel’s recent giveaway made me remember a few physical game copies I had lying around, so if anyone wants these just yell out and I’ll mail them to you.

Spycraft
Toonstruck
Zork: Grand Inquisitor
The Longest Journey (4CD set + manual)
Riven (5CD set)

I’m interested in Toonstruck but the shipping costs would be prohibitive, unfortunately. Can you redeem it for a GOG key or something Tongue

I don’t know, can I? Tongue

It’s only in a 2CD jewel case but if I put the CDs in a paper slip case it might be cheaper. Anyone know how much it would be to ship?

I really appreciate it but please don’t bother on my behalf. The postal service in my country is terrible, there’s like a 20% chance it’ll never get here. I’m sure I’ll pick it up at some point and god knows I have a large enough backlog as-is.

In case anyone missed it, I still have the following games:

I’ve bought way too many games on sites like humble bundle and have a bunch of adventure game keys:
- Gods will be watching
- Her Story
- Puzzle Agent 2
- Murdered: Soul Suspect
- Tesla Effect
- Hatoful Boyfriend
- Lumino City
- The Novelist
- Hate Plus (but for this one, it’s better to have played Analogue a Love Story which is quite a bit better)
- Samorost 2
- Windosill
- Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP

Anyone who gets a key pledges to make a post with a screenshot about their favorite puzzle in the game or something they really liked about the game. Karlok set up a thread for that here: https://adventuregamers.com/forums/viewthread/9367/

Why does everyone who mentions this game always misspell “hateful”? It bothers me, bigtime.

That’s weird, why is spelled like that? But it looks like a japanese game so maybe the developers don’t know english very well.

Just sent. Good choice, it’s a nice game.

It’s actually a clever pun on the word Hato (pigeon) and the Japanese pronunciation of hurtful (which would be written in katakana and would be romanized using Hepburn as hatoful).

Don’t assume stupidity or incompetence without checking for things Smile

EDIT: Wrote that post a while ago but the forum would fail when I tried posting it. It now works though

As a great man once said, “assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups”. Wink

Can’t really say I get the joke. The boyfriend is a pigeon? Yeah, very clever.  Meh
