Happens to me too now, always ... probably due to the Brave browser I use (Chrome clone).

I either fire up Opera and grab it with that browser, or I just use the following link.

https://www.gog.com/giveaway/claim

That gives me a blank browser tab or window, with [] as text at top left.
I then go to Orders & settings, to confirm I got the game, plus continue onto Subscriptions to cancel (de-select) the GOG Partners checkbox.

Give the DuckDuckGo browser/search engines a try. Better than the Brave browser, and the Google search engine is utter bollocks.

I've been using Duck Duck Go search engine instead of Google for many years.

I'm yet to try their browser though, for two reasons - They require you to download a downloader to then download it. And you need windows 11.

I use Brave primarily because I have found it to be the lightest browser when it comes to resources, and quicker to load web pages on this old PC. I also have Comodo IceDragon installed, supposedly the Firefox clone equivalent. I prefer Brave. When I need to, I get by okay with Opera, and its free VPN like aspect has been helpful many times.

My kupuna kept his Gateway 386 PC, mostly as a paper weight, but used to regale me about the joys of MS DOS, and adding a sound card or additional memory by mounting chips on the motherboard. That was after the Commodore and TRS 80 days no less! But the idea of keypunches and card readers for IBM 360 use is Stone Age! He said looking out the window of the Uni computing center as a EE student no less and seeing a T-Rex was uber droll. LOL

Like everything in life, it depends on your perspective, and how much you are willing to give up and how much you want to retain control of, and how much you buy into the bullshit of others.

And as they say, a person has gotta do what a person has gotta do.

And the world is full of a lot of smart arses that sit back and judge others.
And there are a lot of folks out there, so smart (too keen to be clever) they are actually dumb ... and alas many of those impact our lives in big ways ... that is not a judgment, so much as a reaction, to things that just shouldn't be (occur).

HuniePop [NSFW] is free on GOG for the next 23h

Note that Warsaw Rising is the new version of a previously delisted game, Warsaw

Not a game but a DLC: Dying Light - 10th Anniversary Bundle is free on GOG.

It's also free on Steam and Epic. I don't know if this also applies to GOG but the Steam page says it's only available until "February 10th (7PM CET)".

This DLC can be only received if you own base game - if you do not then you can temporary gift this DLC to yourself, to use the gift code later when you get the base game.
