UPDATE: The Monstrous Fall Sale Finale has begun!
That means you have until Sunday 10:59 PM UTC to earn more XP and unlock the three freebies! Having a hard time deciding what to get? Can't blame you - there are tons of great deals to discover, plus some whole new ones which just got added to the pile. Yup, this is going to be a rather monstrous finale indeed!


GOG Connect is back!
It's the third edition of GOG Connect – back with 20 new games to grow your DRM-free library for free. These include favorites like Metro 2033 Redux, HuniePop, Broken Sword Director's Cut & Broken Sword 2 Remastered, Starbound, The Witcher 2 and way more.


Head to connect.gog.com, connect your Steam account, and get started!


Score Deals Up To 90% Off | Earn XP, Get Free Games

The Monstrous Fall Sale – one of the grandest sales of this year – has begun! Join us for 10 days of new deals up to 90% off, free games to unlock, and surprises yet to come!


Start by grabbing Little Big Adventure 2 totally free to kick off your own monstrous adventure – just redeem through the banner on the front page. The giveaway will last for the first 48 hours, so be fast - that's a true classic that you really shouldn't miss.

But this is only the beginning - you can score even more free games during the Monstrous Fall Sale: participate in the fun, collect badges, and keep shopping to earn XP and unlock:
—Expeditions: Conquistador,
—DEX
—Victor Vran


Every dollar spent gives you more XP (use your Wallet funds for an extra 10% boost) and you'll find great combos throughout the sale — like Divinity: Original Sin 2 or Tyranny, which unlock all 3 free games right off the bat.




Twitch Plays is coming back and the GOG.com community will once again channel its inner farmer in two special Stardew Valley events that will grant everyone additional XP, if completed successfully on twitch.tv/GOGcom




You can learn more about the Sale's mechanics and track your progress here.




The Monstrous Fall Sale starts off with a thunderous roar and hot deals – but check back every day for new offers, bundles, and announcements. The Sale will last until November 13, 10:59 PM UTC.

billybgame: Very odd....I always got emails of sales...so your post made me check...the only thing I was "subscribed" to was Wishlisted items. I hope that fixes it....the GoG support was saying it was a problem with the SBCglobal email service. And, no, it never was in SPAM.....so hopefully this was it all along. I never thought to check, as how would it get de-selected, on it's own?!? Thanks.
Glad to help. :)

Shout out to Smutny from customer support for their sorting out my mistake. Thanks mate!

Already used the refund, and a bit more, to buy some more stuff.

mecharma: WELCOME Everyone!
. . . Howdy, goblin friend. You did me no ill, so I had but to keep my promise.

I just bought eighteen games (mostly puzzle games and platformers and a mix of both <3 ) for a little over €50, propelling me to just short of 60,000 XP. And I grabbed the free Expeditions: Conquistador and Dex—thank you very much!

I could have grabbed Victor Vran but I heard that an expansion was coming; and since the developers are behind the DLC-nest Tropico series, I'll wait and see if they release a complete edition. :P

. . . Pleasure to make affairs with you, my friend. I am sure we will meet again soon, for Winter is coming.

You'll just let the game expire without redeeming it?

So, I'm a huge supporter of gog and have over 660 games in my library. However, I currently have been left with a very sour taste in my mouth due to their complete lack of help on an issue I had with not receiving one of the free game codes that I qualified for. I have in fact spent enough in this sale to qualify for all three free game codes, I received two of them but NOT the third. When I clicked on the redeem button the website glitched out on me and when it started to respond again 5 minutes later it showed the game had been redeemed but I did NOT receive the email with the code.

I have submitted two support tickets with still no resolution. I received only ONE reply to the support tickets and that was to tell me to check my junk mail folder (it's like the classic IT help desk response of "have you tried rebooting your PC"!!!). I replied twice that the email was not in my junk mail folder and have not heard back from gog on the matter since.

Extremely disappointed with the lack of further responses from gog on this matter and can't but help feeling like they are ignoring me and hoping I just go away.

They don't work on the weekend.

I can't promise it, but I'm like roughly 85% certain you'll have your game no issues on Monday, if that makes you feel a bit better.

That's what I'm hoping now that I've sent my second support request in. But my original support request was responded to last Tuesday and my follow up emails during the working week went without a reply from gog. Anyway, hoping that this will be resolved on Monday.

Oh that's a bummer - I actually had the initial impression that this was from the last day or so, not since Tuesday - I get now why you were a bit ticked off.

I think so. I'm still grateful for the opportunity they gave me, though. It's just that I wish it were a complete game. (It reminds me of what Telltale Games does on the mobile platforms: they put the first episode of their games for free, and release the next ones as DLC. I don't like this system; I would rather have a separate demo or just buy the whole thing in one go.)

There is no need to submit multiple support tickets. One ticket is enough. They will answer you.

Well, the reply to the first support ticket, the one asking me to check my junk mail, stated that the ticket was now closed and I was concerned that my reply emails were either not received or did not reopen the ticket. That's why I submitted a second support ticket.

That's standard, just reply to it and it'll be "reopened", and keeping the ticket ID in subject also ensures it'll end up with the same person and the conversation can be followed, and maybe also be put higher on the pile. A new one ends up at the end of the queue and duplicates or what seem to be duplicates may even just be dismissed.

Fair enough. Would be nice to be able to see the status of your own support tickets online though.

Hmmm I'm going to assume I'm not going to get in the top 10...

Apparently there's going to be a check-in during the last half-day of the sale starting tomorrow morning. That, or they forgot to remove the 'countdown till next check-in' on the "my promo status" page.
If there is a check-in for Sunday, that would mean that the maximum possible XP attainable without actually buying anything would be 4700, rather than 4600. ...Which makes no practical difference, of course, since I doubt there are any sale items going for $0.29 anyway. :P
