It might fill a small void, till Numenara comes down in price ;)

^ Strange...it's showing as free on GOG's site, but Steam is showing it as $5.99.

I played the demo to it some time ago and thought it was a very well developed little game.

Steam doesn't quite get the concept of free games, unless they're free to play microtransactions money trains with pricey booster pack bundles :)

I remember Chris Park having all sorts of trouble trying to give his aborted Raptor game free to everyone who bought it and provide them all with refunds.

I should have also linked to the news item on the site that details this freebie..

It has a Steam based caveat

^ Pretty much, which is why I love GOG so much. ;D

Also, didn't say it earlier, but thanks, spelk. I added it to my GOG portfolio as well.  O0
