It includes a description and activity information, and options to install the game if it is not installed already. A click on any game opens the details view in the client. Search and other filters are provided to find games quickly. You can browse your existing library with a click on the library menu item in the interface, and filter games by platform as well if you want to. The Galaxy client comes with a built-in store and library management among other features. If you don't want a particular game to update automatically or push saves to the cloud, you can disable those options in the game configuration menu. Some of the features can be turned off for individual games as well.

You get to control global features such as the default installation language and folders, the game overlay, bandwidth restrictions, cloud saves, achievements, or auto updates there. You may want to check the settings on first start to make sure all are set to your liking. If you have GOG games on the computer already, you may want to use the 'scan and import folders' feature to add games to the Galaxy client so that they don't need to be downloaded and installed again. Windows users can install the client and sign in to the GOG account to start using it. GOG Galaxy is available for Windows and Mac OS X currently. The process changed with the release of the gaming client as it centralized management of all GOG games and features nice-to-have features such as storing savegames in the cloud, bandwidth limits, auto-update options, rollback support, and community and friends features.Ĭustomers can ignore the client and run games individually instead if they prefer that. I downloaded GOG games manually to my systems and played them as if they were independent games before the initial release of GOG Galaxy. GOG offers mostly classic computer games and independent games on its store. The main reason for that is that its catalog is tiny in comparison to that of Steam.

While I love GOG, it is not the Store that I use the most. If I had to pick a games store on the Internet, I'd select GOG over any other store out there because of its stance on DRM, and Dollar to Euro handling of game prices.
