When does the playthrough start?
I won’t have time to play anything until around the middle of May, so I don’t want to vote unless the playthrough starts after that.

Both can be found at The Adventure Shop

I was hoping that wasn’t the case. Until Adventure Shop starts pricing their games in $US I likely won’t be buying from them.

Marek said he planned on adding $US to the site, but obviously hasn’t done so yet.

rtrooney, please be aware that Inzogood is talking about The Adventure Shop while you mistakenly understood for Adventure Store .

and please kindly read me opinion to   Adventure Shop Warning, here.

Steam also sells both Overclocked and Sinking Island

(There is even a bundle with Sinking Island going on until tomorrow on indiegala that activates on Steam )

Big Fish sells Sinking Island.
http://www.bigfishgames.com/games/2904/sinking-island/?pc

I bought the game from Big Fish and played it years ago.
I used Bert Jamin’s walkthrough a LOT.
So while Big Fish has “abridged” versions of some adventure games, Sinking Island seems to be complete, because everything the walkthrough mentioned was in the game.

That totally depends on the leader of each game. He/she will start the AGCP whenever feels ready. It usually takes no more than a week after the final voting results to start the appropriate thread and no more than 10 days to start.

Crabapple - Thanks. BFG also has Secrets of Da Vinci. I’ll turn in a credit and/or a coupon and I should be good to go if either one is picked.

Advie - Sorry about the confusion. Between my stance on Adventure Store and your aversion to Adventure Shop, one of the games I voted for, Overclocked. may be unavailable. (There was ONE copy left on Amazon, but it was gone before I had a chance to place an order.)

Wilco - I also don’t buy on Steam if I can possibly avoid it. If Steam and GOG have the same game, I will buy from GOG.

No, there are actually several copies available at amazon, both new and used. You can buy Overclocked virtually everywhere: ebay, gametz, steam, amazon.

Until Adventure Shop starts pricing their games in $US I likely won’t be buying from them.

Prices are shown in euros but you can also pay in dollars.

If you haven’t bought on BFG for a while, you probably should know they’ve introduced a Steam-like client for installing and playing games. I’m avoiding them, like I do with Steam.
