GOG.com is the world's biggest DRM-Free online game store, and a part of the CD Projekt family. All of our games come without any intrusive copy-protection mechanisms, and we bundle in extra content like soundtracks, wallpapers, and other goodies with every game we sell.
We're the second biggest independent outlet for indie games and the main source for PC retro games (updated, tested, and prepared to run on modern systems).
What is GOG.com about and what are its features?
GOG.com is the new games-on-demand platform serving fantastic computer games at kick-ass prices. And no, it's not “just a store” - it's the site that's all about the greatest games ever and the people who play them. We've got critically acclaimed games for just $5.99 and $9.99, tons of free downloadable content and exclusive add-ons, no DRMs or intrusive copy protection and full compatibility with Windows XP & Vista. Most of our games are compatible with Windows 7 and 10 as well, and many work natively on Mac OS X 10.6 and above - it's all right there on every product page. And that's only the tip of the iceberg, as you may have noticed on our cool new splash screen on the main page.
Is GOG.com available in [enter-country-here]?
GOG.com available to everyone, everywhere and at any time (well “any time” minus any scheduled maintenance ).
So what's with this DRM thing?
DRM or Digital Rights Management is a kind of copy protection technology used by many companies to limit the usage of digital media. Although designed to stop pirates from creating illegal copies, in reality the only people who are hurt are the legitimate consumers, stripped of their fair use rights, such as the ability to make backup copies. We believe that a DRM-free world would be a better place and that's why you won't find any DRMs or other intrusive copy protection in games available at GOG.com.
Do I need a user account?
A lot of nice functionality is available to registered users as well as guests. Without an account you can rate games, add comments and even post on the forums. So what's the point of creating a user account? First and foremost to purchase and download games: because your purchased games are linked with your account, you can re-download them whenever and wherever you need. You'll also have more privileges on the forums (creating topics, rating posts), access to our after-sales support, the option to post your reviews on the website and much, much more (and one more “much” for the things that are yet to come ).
Do I need some launcher application to play my GOG.com games?
No. You don't need any additional apps or launchers. We wanted to keep things as simple as possible. All games downloaded from GOG.com are wrapped in a nice self-executable (.exe) setup files, some of the larger ones are accompanied by a .bin file or two. So after you've completed the download, just double-click on the .exe file to install the game on your hard drive. After the installation is complete, shortcuts will be added to your Start Menu, desktop and Games Explorer, so you can launch your game just like any other.

Can I make backups of games downloaded from GOG.com?
Yes you can, and as a matter of fact we strongly recommend you do so – backing up your stuff is a very good habit, you know? Because our games are DRM-free, as soon as you download the setup file, you can back it up on a DVD or your external hard drive without hassle. Plus, as our installers are wrapped in nice .exe files, you can save them all in one folder and create a nice local backup of your games library!And if you forgot to backup your purchased games, fear not. You can always redownload them from our website for free – see below for more info. Sure, downloading will take a little bit longer than launching an installer from your backup disc, but that's no big deal.

GOG Galaxy
Como não encontrei nenhum topico relevante a isto, decidi criar para quem ainda não esteja a par.
É uma boa oportunidade para quem ainda não jogou os Fallout antigos experimentar.
Outros que realmente gosto da lista são Giants, Sacrifice, Evolva, Gothic e Earthworm Jim
