honx: i'm browsing in private mode to prevent companies from spying. so there shouldn't be any cookies nor browsing history.
That's the cause of your problem then. If you wouldn't use private mode, you wouldn't need to enter any CAPTCHAs except ones.

The workaround we've suggested previously is to login to google first.

It seems to help.

but on youtube/google i have completely different login credentials than on gog. how will this work?

//edit i just tried that "workaround" without success, it is not working in my case:
i logged in to google first, then i went to gog.com in same tab to login here. i still had to solve captcha malware.
and the same game again, first try was wrong despite the fact i clicked on every single fcking car in this puzzle.

Do you really care that they are spying on you (in this case GOG and google might if you don't use private mode for these two). Me for myself consider private mode too much of a hassle for most things, I only use it seldom.
Anyway, you can try what drmike said. If you're logged into the google account probably you won't need to enter captcha. It doesn't matter what the credentials are.

and i also tried to access gog.com in non private mode. also in this case i have captcha malware to solve...
I only rarely have to do the captcha as I get it to `remember ` once I`ve done. However, i have never spent 2 hours on one, just a minute or so. What captcha did you get, an advanced algebraic equation?

i always get puzzles, i have to select things such as cars, traffic signs, shop fronts, taxis, traffic lights, streets or fire plugs. and i have to select not just three or four pictures/tiles. no, i have to click dozens of pictures, either on different pages (button "next") or there are disappearing tiles and i have to wait for new ones to appear. which always takes ages!

so called "puzzles" designed to annoy users and to waste user's precious time also do damage.
i'm not getting paid for that time i'm wasting on this google captcha bullshit, so there is damage.
i don't get my time back and i don't earn any money for this donkeywork. so captcha = malware.

If i had a dollar for every time i've seen these complaints, i'd probably be buying more games right now.

On the flip side, i understand the privacy concerns, but i'll tell you now that the silly sneak mode is only lulling you into a false sense of security. You're gonna get tracked, you're gonna get spied on, etc. What you want to stay private, find another way to do it. Not ever facet of your life has to stay private: and it won't. You can never go completely off the grid. What you can do is be smart about what "they" know.
If the captchas are too hard for you, you're probably going to struggle with the games anyway
