Deals so good, you won't want to fall asleep.
You remember back when you used to walk into a store, browse the shelves, pick out a game, and then buy it--all in the actual real world? We don't know about you, but most of us at GOG.com have had our limbs atrophy to small vestigial nubbins since all of our shopping happens online these days. Of course, one thing that sometimes happens in real world stores with real world goods--particularly when they have a good sale--is that they run out of stock. Usually that means that the deal was so good that they couldn't keep up with demand.

Well, in the digital realm, this is usually pretty rare. How do you run out of stock on digital games, short of entropy devouring the universe? Well, we have gotten 101 games that will be on sale on the front page of GOG.com, but the discounts are so high at the moment that we can't just sell an unlimited number of copies of these games: we are only able to sell a few at these discounts--up to 80% off--and once they're gone, they're gone.

So what games will be on sale in our Insomnia promo? Bestselling classics and new games alike. There will also occasionally be some free games in super limited numbers (like, 20 or 30 copies)--if you're fast enough on the trigger finger to pick 'em up, that is. The deal will run from now until we're out of "stock" of games for the sale, and games may show up more than once. So it's time to bathe in a tub of coffee*, dip some espresso**, snort an energy drink***, or do whatever else it takes to stay up so you don't miss out on the best deals on fantastic games on GOG.com since summer.
*This is probably not a good idea
**This is definitely not a good idea
***This is totally safe, though****
****NO IT'S NOT WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU CRAZY PERSON

So if we did two rounds and half of the games were free, and we're in the supposedly final round, I wonder if some games won't end up being free or if there will be some kind of lightning freebie round.

Either way, this sale is probably going to last for at least 24 more hours.
This sale is a pain when you just want one title.

I reckon I can complete Metro:Last Light on hardest difficulty before Eador sells. Let's find out...

ZapMcRaygunn: Indeed. Judging by your response you likely got at least one freebie.

stylez82: Not sure how exactly you made the universe-sized leap of logic to that conclusion, but it's incorrect, sorry. I'm barely able to see the free game nevermind have time to click the 'Buy Now' button and get anything other than 'offer expired' or 'we're overloaded'.

Myst might as well have sold out instantly in comparison to the debacle of JK2 last night.
JK2 had 25 copies this round and sold out quick and I think it was last chance so no more worries on that one.

Uzur9: Sad thing is... I do want to read them. Heck I bought and read the 4th Mass Effect book. I did read the reviews on it so I knew what I was getting myself into.

XEternalDreamX: I bought the Dragon Age books, and they were pretty good since I felt the connection to the world of DA. Did you read them?
Haven't read any of them. Im alittle iffy on getting them since DA2 was a slap in the face.

cdnred: I hope this list is correct. I'd like a shot at Don't Starve and Startopia. This sale has been tough for me, too busy to try and grab anything.

moochorama: Don't starve wasn't up a 3rd time yet, I'm sure of that (I'm waiting for it too <.< ). Nor was Startopia.
I can confirm this. Been watching the sale since about 18:00 GMT+1. It's 02:06 now here.
Welp, Eador is gonna take 3 hours.

I might have to sleep. Goodbye Rogue Legacy.
You know what pees me off? I keep missing the Jack Keane sale. Every time I click the buy button its too late and offer is expired. I wish i wasnt so slow.

startopia was just up on its last chance thing wasn't it? I think that was the final one.
Eador is the new ROTT.

It's really just games that are over $3 that don't sell as rapidly, with few exceptions.

Xabyer_B: I'm dreaming or I'm watching spanish people posting here.
You're dreaming.
Has Miasmata been up for a third time? (non freebie)
Curse you!!

No, I think it came up right before the 3rd "last chance" round started. It should come round again.
avatar
CorranHorn: Yes SS 2 was only for free, should come back as one final offer. Not sure about Shelter but I could´ve missed that one though.

bew1977: It said last chance on it I believe, so you may be out of luck
Maybe they meant to get it for free, I don´t think it meant that they will not have one last sale of it.
