This is the weekend to buy Shadowgate. Since its release, Zojoi has reworked the experience to make it even better for players, improving the UI and even offering a new "Dread Pumpkin" quest for Halloween. It's a remarkable amount of attention for a remastered title that simply could have been dumped on the world and made fans happy.

This weekend though, they've outdone themselves even further. Current and new owners of Shadowgate will not only get the beloved remake of the classic game (by the original developers!), but two extra retro titles.
You'll earn the original version of Shadowgate as well as the detective adventure game Déjà Vu: A Nightmare Comes True, the latter a game we're personally hoping gets the remake treatment sooer rather than later. These two games were part of the four original MacVenture games (it also included Uninvited and Deja Vu II: Lost in Last Vegas) that were developed for the Apple Macintosh before being ported to everything from the Amiga to the NES.
