GOG.com, the DRM-free classic games retailer, has had the idea that by selling certain games at a reduced price, more people will buy them, thus actually creating more money for itself and partners.
So, during the experiment, a selection of games usually priced $5.99 will be dropped to only $3.99, and a choice collection of $9.99 titles have been reduced down to $6.99.
$5.99 to $3.99:
Alien Shooter, Celtic Kings, Commandos Ammo Pack, Constructor, Empire Earth, Knights and Merchants, Litil Divil, Lords of Magic, Lords of the Realm, Mobile Forces, Myst: Masterpiece Edition, Outcast, Personal Nightmare, Realms of Haunting, Rollercoaster Tycoon, Simon the Sorcerer, Waxworks.
$9.99 to $6.99:
Broken Sword 4: The Angel of Death, Ceville, Evil Genius, Haegemonia Gold Edition, King’s Bounty, Moto Racer 3, Red Baron Pack, Shadowgrounds, Sherlock Holmes, The Incredible Machines, Warlords Battlecry 3
Now it’s up to the gamers to take part in the experiment.
“We’d like to offer you the best games in history on PC & Mac for the most affordable prices, but we need to fund testing, coding, bundling, and securing rights to even more classics. So we want to see if this brings us and our partners more money overall, even though there’s less per individual sale,” explained GOG.
“That’s the argument we’d like to make, but we’ll see what the results from you guys actually are as we try out our new price points.”
