FAQ: Delivery

Delivery

Your purchased items will be available for download in Best Old Games or at your "My account" page, as soon as you complete the checkout process and your payment is successfully completed (except where you get free content). Of course, the preorder will be delivered after the game's full release date.

You can download the purchased content from "My account" page by downloading standalone files.

If you purchased an item as a gift you or the gift recipient have to redeem the code before downloading any gifted items.

Standalone files

You can download content as standalone files (this way you can backup them directly on your computer or external storage media). To do this, go to ("My Account" page) on the BOG website, and click the purchased item to show the download options.

Installers for Windows games

Download the .exe file, along with all the .bin files (if the game has multiple installer files) under "game installers". Once the download is complete, double-click the .exe file and follow the instructions presented by the installer. Once the installation is complete, shortcuts will be added to your Start Menu, desktop and Games Explorer, so you can launch your game.

Installers for Mac OS (where available)

Download the .pkg file under "game installers". Once the download is complete, double-click the .pkg file and follow the instructions presented by the installer. Once the installation is complete you can launch the game using .app bundle that is present in location selected during installation.

Installers for Linux (where available)

Download the .sh file under "game installers". Once the download is complete, mark the installer file as executable. Then, run it by double clicking the .sh file or using the command in terminal and follow the installer steps to complete the installation. Once the installation is complete, you can run the game using the shortcut created in your applications menu, on your desktop, or just by launching the starting script in the installation folder.

Additional content ("Goodies")

Download the .zip files and, once the downloads are complete, extract them using your system's default archive software. Once extracted, you can enjoy the bonus content within. Note that bonus content may be grouped into sections in the downloads list, if your purchased game had more goodies bundled with it (through an upgrade, or a superior edition).

Other content

If you purchase in-Game content, the content will be available for you in the game after purchase. You can redownload your items as many times as you like, but you’re not allowed to share your BOG account with other users, as only you are entitled to download items from your account.
