Why Indiana Jones and His Desktop Adventures Belongs on GOG
Indiana Jones and His Desktop Adventures is a charming, underrated classic from 1996. Unlike traditional Indy games, this one offered a unique, top-down action-adventure experience with randomly generated maps and quests, making every playthrough feel fresh. It captured the adventurous spirit of Indiana Jones in a compact, accessible format perfect for casual gaming.
Though it may seem simple by today’s standards, it’s a piece of gaming history—one of the early experiments with procedural generation and accessible gameplay. Sadly, it’s been lost to time, with no digital re-release available.
GOG is the perfect platform to bring this game back. Its focus on preserving retro PC titles, delivering them DRM-free and optimized for modern systems, makes it the ideal home for Indy’s forgotten desktop journey. Bringing this game to GOG would help preserve a nostalgic gem and introduce new fans to a lighter, fun side of Indiana Jones.

Most of the story and the relationship between the characters are explained through cut-scenes with a considerable length, so knowledge of the prior games is recommended to fully understand the story. The game also features a complex multiplayer mode entitled Metal Gear Online with some original missions based on the stealth aspects of the single-player games.Action Fantasy Historical Stealth Survival

Metal Gear Solid HD CollectionFrom the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise.

The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. But that is the secret behind the series' popularity-the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.The MGS series is also known for its storyline, which blends seamlessly with the gameplay. The scenarios are based on extensive research and incorporate the drama of actual developments in society. These elements have made MGS what it is today: a mature work of entertainment that transcends national borders and the confines of video games, and one of the leading products of the Japanese content business.Action Stealth
