GOG has announced the launch of a new feature called Dreamlist, aimed at reviving classic games that have been difficult to bring back. This tool allows users to vote for retro titles they would like to see re-released and share personal stories and memories tied to these games.

This initiative builds on GOG's ongoing commitment to game preservation, such as its Preservation Program, which ensures compatibility of older games with modern systems. Recent successes include the re-release of Dino Crisis and Dino Crisis 2.

Each game on Dreamlist has a dedicated page where fans can cast votes and contribute narratives. The data collected will be used by GOG in discussions with intellectual property holders, aiming to bring back games that might otherwise remain inaccessible due to licensing or technical challenges.

How can you participate in the Dreamlist?

There has yet to be a game in the intervening 25 years that has scratched the same itch as freelancer for me. Perfect blend of story and sandbox.
