You can download it here.

I'm not sure how long this price will be in effect, so hurry! Unfortunately only those living in the United States will be able to take advantage of this offer. wave12

I just finished the game last night. That's a great price for a lot of game.

Beerhead, it'll depend on the speed of your internet connection. I downloaded it from Steam and as I recall (it's been awhile) it took me less than an hour, but I have a cable modem, so downloading is fast.

Thanks Marian! I've been waiting for a good price for this game...this is better than I was hoping for!

I'm downloading now. I have dsl and a 1.5mbps connection speed and the download is going to take at least 8 hours. I wish I could get cable!!!


I child-proofed my home... but they're still getting in!

Marian,

Thanks for posting this link. I jumped on it because I have been hearing from the GBs who have played it that it is a great game. I am going to start downloading it shortly. Hopefully it will work. I don't seem to have much luck downloading large file games.

Hello to all and a HAPPY NEW YEAR! I downloaded Lost Horizon from Amazon and installed ot; however, it said I needed a "plug in" to unlock, even though I typed the key in. What and where is a plug in? Thanks judy

Marian, no there wasn't anything about a "plug in" when discussing activation. I want to contact Deep Silver, but couldn't find it on "Game and Developers". I also Googled and got a site who had a download possible,so that didn't help. How strange. I have neve never been asked for a plug in in order to activate the key and game. Has anyone else had this after installing the game? Thanks, Judy D

Well, after calling Deepsilver to no avail, I uninstalled the game and re installed..made sure the internet was available and was able to unlock. it all was very frustrating,but worth the effort!Of course I still don't know what a plug in means, BUT do not care at this place and time! Again HAPPY NEW YEAR to all. judy D.

@Question about Lost Horizon:
Click to reveal..

How come there are no Nazi swastikas in the game, but crosses instead? Is it illegal or something? Shame, cause it looks sort of ridiculous.

It is a really good game btw!


There's definitely definitely definitely no logic to human behaviour.

Hey, Tomer,

In a previous thread on Lost Horizon one of our members said that it is, indeed, illegal to show the swastika on anything in Germany. Personally, I thought the iron cross looked okay; at least it's in keeping with an earlier time in the country and isn't that noticeable. (On reflection, I believe the iron cross was a prestigious medal given out in some branch of the German military during WWII.)

Gil.

Thanks much for the tip, Marian. I had played the demo a while back but never bought the game, even though it was enjoyable. At this price I had to download it.


I point, therefore I click.

Thanks for the tip Marian. Even though I don't live in the states I was able to purchase this as I could put in my folks address in the US which then allowed me through the checkout process.

As Judy mentioned, the activation process was a bit odd as it required a browser plug-in to work. Fortunately once activated I was able to remove the plug-in and the game still works.

I think you're talking about the Amazon Games and Software Downloader which you need to download it from Amazon. I downloaded this afternoon - I think it took me about 2-1/2 hours, and have been playing since then. I love the game! Was just waiting for the price to come down.
