Game Giveaway of the day — Hermes: Rescue Mission
Hermes: Rescue Mission was available as a giveaway on December 11, 2022!
Exclusive offer from Giveaway of the Day and ToomkyGames! No third-party advertising and browser add-ons!
Unleash the power of the gods on a quest to defeat the lord of the underworld! Over time, mankind's faith in the Greek gods faded, allowing Hades to escape the kingdom of the dead and wreak havoc. As the demigod Hermes, you must slip on your winged sandals and lead a team of rescuers across a decimated land in pursuit of your enemy, saving the people you encounter and their homes as you go.
The servants of Hades will be waiting for you around every bend and turn in the road. To secure the help of Zeus, Ares, Artemis and more, you'll need to restore their demolished altars and make sacrifices in their name. Only then will you be able to use the unique skill each god grants you to defeat satyrs, a three-headed beast and more. You'll also be granted the ability to heal a poisoned land and restore the lives of the people that populate it.
Each thrilling level will challenge you to remove cleverly placed obstacles and figure out the quickest way to gather and produce the resources you need. The faster you succeed, the more stars and achievements you'll earn! For casual players who want to enjoy the captivating story, vibrant visuals and addictive gameplay, but have a relaxing experience, an untimed mode is available as well.
The electrifying power of Zeus is within your reach. Will you seize it and claim your rightful place among the legends?
Key features:
• Exciting, adventure-filled story;

FYI folks, if you use the Steam link in the blue spec box near top right of the page you'll see 8 reviews, all positive, only 1 repeated in Whiterabbit's links. 6 of those are in English, and most are fairly detailed, so you can get a more detailed idea of this game and whether it might interest you.
I won't be able to review, as I'm using my oldest computer, the only 1 working, :P and it runs Win XP. A couple of things I gleaned from reading those Steam reviews, this is, mostly, a relaxed game as you don't need to get 3 stars on the level to move on to the next, and all extra accomplishments are awarded if you complete the game. That has caused 2 of the Steam reviewers, who are very accomplishment oriented, to declare the game has no replayability. I think that's over stating it for 2 reasons: 1. any game you enjoy has some replayability if you like how it's played and often if you let it sit long enough between plays (unless you have a photographic memory). 2. You can always replay the levels where you couldn't get the 3 stars, 1 or 2 of the Steam reviewers say that some are quite difficult.
As I said above, you can get more details on these and other issues by clicking the Steam link in the blue spec box above. Happy gaming.
Thanks GGOTD, and Toomky for the game, & Whiterabbit, and Jason for the useful links, screenshots, and info.

mediaman(watcher)13, You are welcome. Unfortunately I am just not able to produce a review today because it has been a very busy day with house chores and also going to the laundry room to wash clothing. It's time for a cold beer and in a couple of hours turn in for the night and rest.

Hello! Has the GOTD team done anything to their wrapper tech thing recently?
Second time in a month trying to run their setup file, failing to connect (again), etc. Don't know what I can try, more than what I've done so far. Well, it worked for sure before...
Now preventing Kaspersky to run upon starting Windows, re-downloading the zip file anyway, extracting again and running the EXE file - still to no avail :(
Bummer. I use Windows 7 though - could this be the reason? Anybody to try on that old-fashioned OS next time please?

Okay, I'll start out with I'm on Windows 11 whatever version it is.
This is a great game! I love it.
Time Management are my all time favorite and ones like this one rate near the top of what I love.
It has everything you want in such things. Three modes of play, able to queue up tasks, plenty of powerups, lots of tasks to do, all kinds of things.
I can't comment on the music or anything as I have learned after so many games with annoying dinks, doinks, and other such noises I've learned to just keep the sound of while I play.
Each level is challenging and fun. I can usually go through the lower levels of such games with a three star, but I can't with this one. That I love! It gets boring when you can beat levels so easily.
The visuals are good. Though cartoony, like most games, they are high quality and not annoying.
Gameplay is smooth and easy, no. glitches or issues. It's also very fast, something I love. It's also easy to follow the characters you need, rather than be distracted by others around.
The storyline I won't comment on because i never really follow that, just click through.
All in all this is a great game I love! If you don't like TM games, you won't like this, but if you do, it'll be something you adore.
Huge thumbs up from me!

Thanks! My wife loves TM games, and a new one that hasn't been given away before is a bit rare.
"Unfortunately the installed games file size of of 1.32GB exceeds both limits for both Virus Total (650MB) and Internxt (1GB), so I wasn't able to do an online scan."
Uploaded & scanned a zipped copy of the game's folder at VirusTotal: virustotal.com/gui/file/0f74a3854ad7e2999034791581ea02c8e41a64868b60f0f9a5409b127176a483?nocache=1
While some of the scan engines couldn't access it, got 3 hits:
BitDefenderTheta -- Gen:NN.ZexaF.36106.rnKfaeRJK@kk
Jiangmin -- AdWare.Generic.edgu
VBA32 -- Suspected Of Trojan.Downloader.gen

Really like this one, thanks again :)

Just an update I was able to get the game to run properly. Apologies for the first message I left. All I had to do was restart my computer and things worked again smoothly although the Alawar Splash screen has a choppy transition to the main menu of the game. I will post my thoughts on this game later.

Happy Sunday everyone! Unfortunately I am unable to review today's giveaway today. While I've been able to play many games on here in the past this game just locks up my computer on multiple occasions.
It should be noted that this game uses the Unity Engine which can call up pretty high system requirements to run the game which some computers may be unable to handle.
This also requires Direct X 11 minimum, 2GB of Ram and at least Windows 7. So if you're running Windows XP or Vista you won't be able to run the game. It also has a video card requirement of 512mb of video ram. While some integrated video cards can handle it, many can't unless it's the likes of NVIDIA or AMD inside your machine.
But thank you GGOTD for your generous offers as always. Hopefully one day I will have a computer capable of playing this as it looks fun.
