Grab Hellpoint, a souls-like action game, for free on GOG for 24 hours
GOG is giving away the souls-like RPG Hellpoint for free over the next 24 hours. While it has mixed reviews, it's definitely worth checking out before the promotion ends.
You can now get the souls-like action RPG "Hellpoint" completely free on GOG's digital game distribution service. But hurry, the offer only lasts 24 hours!
Hellpoint is a challenging action RPG set in a grim sci-fi universe where the lines between science and occultism are blurred. Irid Novo station, once a magnificent monument to human achievement, is now abandoned. It has been overrun by savage creatures from other dimensions and malevolent cosmic gods. You embody a creation of the mysterious Author, tasked with exploring Irid Novo and uncovering the terrible events that led to a catastrophic enigma known as the 'Merge'.
On GOG itself, gamers have given the game a rather mediocre rating of just 3.8/5. Critics, however, praise its well-developed character progression, engaging bosses, and an intriguing world to explore. Among its drawbacks – which significantly contribute to the relatively low score – the specialized press points to the project's weak technical foundation (simple graphics, poor animations, and terrible physics), along with a plot that severely falters after about a quarter of the game.
So, if souls-like games aren't really your thing, Hellpoint probably won't be either. However, since the game is currently free, why not give it a shot?
