• FREE GAME: "Alchemy Garden"

    From Spalls Hurgenson@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jun 15 10:15:47 2023
    A freebie from Fanatical.com.

    They want you to link your Fanatical account to your Steam account,
    and - frankly - the game on offer isn't worth that to me.* But decide
    for yourself.



    - Alchemy Garden
    https://www.fanatical.com/en/game/alchemy-garden
    Create potions and sell them in your own alchemy shop. Sort of a cross
    between a tycoon game and something like Animal Crossing. Too cutesy
    for my taste.




    I think the offer is only good for 24 hours, and there are only
    'limited keys available', so if you're interested, grab it now rather
    than later.




    --------------
    * Especially since, it turns out, I already own the game. It was
    probably bundled with some better game; it's nothing I'd actually pay
    for.

    Ah, you beat me. :P I just saw its e-mail and claimed the game even though I might not play it at all.

    I got the email for this one as well. So this is the rare game that I
    did not need you, Spalls or Zag to tell me about it first.

    But thank you Spalls anyway for keeping on top of this.
