Gaming Deal of the Day – 1C Wonderful Classics 50% off this weekend only

RPGs, space management, sci-fi RTSes, fantasy TBS, and (literally) chilling horror–pick your weapon and slay boredom with nine wonderful classics from 1C Publishing.

King’s Bounty: The Legend is a treat for all HoMM lovers–you may say its a reimagination of the Heroes series, but it’s one that’s brimming with its own style, ideas, and small details. The game blends strategy and RPG with real time map exploration and turn-based combat in a fantasy world of kings, knights, and mages. Fantasy Wars is a game in a similar genre but a completely different one; it’s a turn-based strategy game played on a hex-based map. You will have to put your tactical thinking to the test against Orcs, Goblins, Elves, and Dwarves. The victory not always lays with the strongest army, so use the landscape and organize cooperation between different units to maximize your chances for victory. Both Fantasy Wars and King’s Bounty: The Legend are available 50% for only $4.99 this weekend on GOG.com.

Space Rangers and Space Rangers 2: Dominators are both games like you’ve never seen before. An eclectic mix of turn-based combat strategy, 4X game, third-person shooter, trade simulation, and arcade shooter, this mashup should probably explode right in the devs faces, but instead these games pop with charm, playability, and fast pacing. Although the series is not widely known, you cannot afford to miss such unique, complex and fun series, and it’s only $4.99 for each of the games now on GOG.com.

If you miss the X-Com series, you’re probably feel right at home when playing UFO: Aftermath. And if you liked it, you’re going to love UFO: Aftershock. Once you’re done with the second invasion, you can complete the trilogy with UFO: Afterlight. UFO is a series of sci-fi tactical strategy games with nice engine, good game mechanics, and hundreds of aliens to blast.

This promo ends next Monday, May 15 11:59 PM EDT, but until then you can pick up the wonderful classics aboce as well as getting the excellent tactical/rpg space game Star Wolves and Cryostasis: The Sleep of Reason, a cold and dark horror set in the Arctic Circle. Both of these games are $4.99 this weekend only.

You can pick up these titles separately for $4.99 or as a bundle here for only $42.91
