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

I think my favorite part of the earlier games (M & M 1 - 5) was hand-drawing the maps.

Made me think I really was on an adventure in a way an auto-map could never replicate.

PincushionMan: If you haven't played this before, no. The graphics were dated in the late 80s and early 90s when these games came out. Sound (for MM2 and MM3) is PC speaker, so will be listening to simple beeps and boops. It may be riggable for Tandy sound, but I doubt it ships that way.

MGShogun: Well, I'm only getting it for MM6 so I think I should be okay.
Do it for MM6, and then work your way backwards. They're all fun, and kind of addicting.
Its got a case of the Eadors....

I always thought 4 & 5 were better than 6. Also, I don't recall 3 being PC speaker at all. It's essentially the same engine as 4 & 5.

Wolferatus: I`m watching now since its start and I see all the same sales, I was waiting for Dungeon keeper 1+2 at 80% to buy but it seems it will not be on sale?
Here are all the games that are part of the current promo. Right now we're in the third and final round of repeats.

MM4+5 is another true classic.
IMO, 4+5 is the best in the older MM and 6 is the best in the "newer" MM

gbaz69: Crap, I didn't know this was last chance.
Only a dozen titles in or so for Last Round. Posted a list a page or two back of what (should be) left.

Buying old games blind on barely paragraph long recommendations is the only way to buy games.
Well, this has been on my wish list for long long long time, lol.

You can tell the sale is wearing thin when this is having a hard time selling.

If you got $2.50 to spare for sure and have been waiting on it, I'd say go for it.

Its not like thats a huge investment or something.

Any tip for how to connect 4 and 5 together?
Damn I miss New World Computing / 3DO

When you install them both they are automatically together.

I think in GOG version you just install them as a whole - "world of xeen"
