Get two Tex Murphy adventures free from GOG

Who's Tex Murphy, you might ask? No, not the guy who created Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck — that's Tex Avery. Tex Murphy is the protagonist of a series of vintage adventure games, combining post-apocalyptic sci-fi with pulp detective stories. If that sounds intriguing to you, you can get the first two games in the series, Mean Streets and Martian Memorandum, for free from GOG.com! The games may not have aged gracefully, but the price certainly has.

The site is offering the two Access Software adventures as a holiday gift, from now through December 24. Or, if you already bought those games from GOG, you can get a mysterious "alternative gift."
