Hi everyone. Well, summer is here, and we've got our BBQs out. But, instead of burning some meat before the rain sets in, we've been busy cooking up some stunning deals as part of the Steam Summer Sale! (Can you tell that I still have a few culinary puns left over from our recent Steam release of Sorcery Saga?)
Since I know you’ll have a burning desire to get to the Steam Store and take advantage of the amazing offers available, I’ll try to run through them all as briefly as possible.
As usual, all discounts apply not only to the base game, but to all its associated DLC too, unless otherwise noted:
Lost Dimension (regular price $24.99) has a 60% discount (DLC discounted by 50%)
Omega Quintet (regular price $29.99) has a 60% discount (DLC discounted by 50%)
Mugen Souls (regular price $19.99) has a 75% discount (DLC discounted by 50%)
Mugen Souls Z (regular price $19.99) has a 70% discount (DLC discounted by 50%)
Flame Over (regular price $11.99) has an 80% discount
Cubixx HD (regular price $8.99) has an 80% discount
I’m sure you’ll agree that these are some hot deals, so make sure you pick up these brilliant games before the sale ends on the 5th July.
While it's still too early for everyone's favourite curry-flavoured JRPG dungeon crawler, Sorcery Saga, to take its place among these mouth-watering deals, I'd still suggest you check this one out. It really is a fantastic game and if you're still on the fence, why not check out Al's 5 favourite things about the game?
That’s all for now. I’ll be back soon with more news from Ghostlight, but until then why not follow us on our Twitter, Instagram and Facebook pages, our Youtube Channel and our Google + account, where we’ll be posting all the latest news from Ghostlight. You can also follow me on Twitter for a more personal take on all things Ghostlight.

Hi everyone. Summer is here, but rather than go to the beach wouldn't you rather relax with your favourite DRM free Ghostlight games? Whether you want to explore a nice cool dungeon in Elminage, save the world in Agarest or just explore the streets of Japan as a samurai we have the games for you this summer.
Since I know you’ll have a burning desire to get to the GOG Store and take advantage of the amazing offers available, I’ll try to run through them all as briefly as possible.
I’m sure you’ll agree that these are some hot deals, so make sure you pick up these brilliant games before the sale ends on the 18th June.

***SPOILER ALERT!!*** Note that this blog contains some tips on the game which can be considered spoilers if you want to learn as you go. You’ve been warned! ***SPOILER ALERT!!***
Hi everyone, as promised I'm back again with more hints to help you out in our spicy roguelike Sorcery Saga. Before reading this one, make sure you check out part one to see all the tricks I shared earlier.
Level up your equipment!
This spear is started to look pretty nice. ^^
This is probably the most important step I can recommend because your attack/defence/resistance-based stats will only increase based on your weapon and shield, not on Pupuru’s level (which only affects your max health.) You want to level up your weapons to increase their abilities but also to increase the number of slots they have. Slots lead on to the next tip…
Craft carefully!
Here's an example of a BAD craft. Going ahead would waste the scroll's 'Abilities +8' slot. :(
Be sure that when you’re blending weapons together using the crafting menu that you have enough slots to maximise the abilities available to the weapon that’s produced during crafting. It’s no use crafting 2 abilities together if the subject of your crafting only supports one slot, so level the weapon/shield you want to enhance adequately before you craft. Also, try crafting with ‘Secret Scroll’ when you find it. :)
Make money while you Shop!
The blade to the shop keeper's right (above Kuu) is the money-making 'Decadent Dirk'. Swaaag!
Every 10 levels or so you’ll encounter a shop-keep or merchant during your dungeoneering. You can buy some cool stuff here but if you’re holding the decadent Dirk weapon you can also make a lot of money. By dropping the item then talking to the shopkeeper you can sell it for way more than it costs to buy back. Buy it back by picking it up but be sure to talk to the shopkeeper before you leave to complete the transaction. Like many roguelike’s, there’s not much future in angering the merchants! :-\
Be careful with unknown items:
If I equip this 'King's Sword?' I'll find out about it, BUT I may not be able to equip my spear after. :-\
This is a very important tip later in the game, when you may have very powerful equipment in hand. Equipping something you haven’t identified can sometimes leave you with a cursed item you can’t unequip and later in the game enemies often screw around with the stuff in your inventory that ISN’T equipped, which can lead to your many hours of crafting going up in smoke. Use Kuu’s Eye of God skill or the Assay Scroll to appraise anything you’re not sure of if you’ve got a good weapon1/shield in hand.
Some valuable items:
Slowly amassing a good stash of gear back home in my Item Box. Secret Scrolls are great!
One final tip! Here are some cool items that it’s good to collect during a playthrough of Sorcery Saga:
Secret Scroll: This is great to craft into weapons, provided there’s an empty slot.
Green Orb: Another one that’s a great health boon to crafting weapons, slot permitting.
Decadent Dirk: Make a fortune selling and buying this back. You can max out your cash if you have the patience…
Transport Book: Lets you return to Dish Town without losing your items.
Magic Compact: Use this on other junk items to have a high chance of creating new Tomes. Read the Tomes to learn new spells or level up existing ones.
That’s all for now. If you have any tips of your own you’d like to share, please let us know in the comments below. We’d love to learn from you! ^_^
