    Took the Mystery game plunge and got crusader kings complete , which i didn't really want / know of, However it was more than the money i paid. Will Probably buy a few games and mystery games again soon!

    Thanks OP!

    • If it was a steam key and hence giftable I would be happy to have it. Was always curious about that game given what people say about CK II but was never curious enough to buy it on Steam.

    • I'm interested in crusaders kings too. If its a redeemable coupon would you like to swap for Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena, also on GOG?

      Lysander - It won't be on steam, GOG doesn't have any steam stuff.

    • Just contact GOG support, they will probably transfer the game to a gift - they did that for me when I purchased one of their "pinyata" mystery deals a few months back. And, frankly, I would buy that CK collection off you if you have not already taken one of the other offers - it is a really good deal.

      • I later Purchased a Mystery game myself, and, what are the odds - got Crusader Kings Complete. Happy ;-)

    I'm seeing the mystery games priced at AU $4.19 - so maybe specify that it's US dollars in your title? Thanks OP.

      Sorry about that, posted early hours in the morning, thank you for letting me know.

    Keen to know the general OzBargain opinion on whether mystery box deals are considered bargains.

    • +3

      They State the item you will be receiving is over $10 AUD, However i wouldn't class this as an actual good bargain unless you get something you wanted. I think they are just giving away keys from games that are unpopular? Or games that have been marked up to the "$10" minimum

    • +3

      If you really value DRM free games, and you sort of like to make the purchase itself a bit of a game, then these mystery bundles are probably good value.

      However, GOG prices are set at a little bit of a premium - I buy from them, because I really appreciate that the products are DRM Free, and that GOG try really hard to keep prices to Aussies reasonable. GOG have a stated commitment to keeping prices level to all markets, while other sellers are gradually using geolocation to bring in the "Australia Tax".

      In the spirit of OzBargain, I would have to say you can probably get these games cheaper in bundles or sales if you are willing to wait, but they would likely be steam versions.

      • +3

        Yes, I agree. There are fewer 75% off sale items on GoG than there are on Steam, and often to get 75% off you have to purchase a bundle with games you are not interested in. However, DRMfree are keepers. I recently had a scare when my Steam account was hacked. Unlike physical items, you can never own DRM-protected digital purchases, and it is very easy for a dedicated hacker to steal your digital library. Even if Gog went bankrupt or your account was usurped, you could still play everything you had downloaded from them.

    I got crappy mystery games.
    - Triple Town
    - Shantae: Risky's Revenge Directors Cut

    Considering how much I have bought on GOG was hoping for something better :(

    Note that the mystery games will have a retail value of between $9.99 and $34.99.

      Both of those may not be expensive games but they are great!

    Just bought another mystery game, SUPREME LEAGUE OF PATRIOTS: SEASON PASS.

    Honestly it is probably not worth getting the Mystery games. i could of gotten something nice for the 8.20 i spent…

  • +1

    I have an overwhelming urge to buy TIE Fighter Special Editíon.

  • +2

    Thread on GOG forums with mystery games received so far. Seems like GOG support might send you a new mystery game if you have a duplicate and you can buy it as a gift key so it's swappable.

      To save people a jump (or in my case work prox block). I would be pretty mad to get Jade Empire considering its free on Origin at the moment.
