WARSAW, Poland (5 April 2012) -- GOG.com, the digital distributor of DRM-free games, brought out buckets of big news today, announcing preorders for indie adventure game Botanicula by the award-winning developers of Machiarium. The PC games store is also adding a line of “GOG.com Premium Edition” newer games, starting with Assassin’s Creed: Director’s Cut and Heroes of Might & Magic V--available together for just $19.99 until 12 April--and last (but most certainly not least!) they are giving away the original Fallout absolutely free for 48 hours.

Botanicula, available now on GOG.com for a special preorder price of $8.99, is a gorgeous adventure game from the makers of Machinarium. This charming point & click game stars five friends on a perilous journey to save the last seed of their home tree from an infestation of parasites. With lush visuals and a soundtrack composed by Czech alternative band DVA, this game is sure to wow all of the fans of Machinarium and adventure games in general.
