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

"Captain's log, Day 9: Tonight's campfire pretty much looks the same as yesterday's. Or Day 7's. Or 6's. Apart from that I am totally steamrolling this sh*t. Ez pz. Listen up, world, for I am your master, haaaaaaharhar.

Hammerwatch
Spelunky
Syberia 2

Cognition: An Erica Reed Thriller
Miasmata
Leisure Suit Larry: Reloaded
Space Colony HD

Jack Keane 2: The Fire Within ^_^ dont want to get trolled by GOG again on that title (without knowing its still lurking)
Syberia 2 isn't in the insomnia sale list me thinks. Syberia 1 is though, I think it is still to has it's 'Last chance' sale.

Edit: Ok, my lack of sleep is causing real trouble with my reading comprehension. Ignore this post and continue xD

It's 4:00 EST and I don't think that Thunderhorse (Thunderdome? Thunder Cats? Whatever.) is going to sell any time soon. That leaves all of the games I wanted not on my shelf.

I'm blaming Keane for all of this.
I'm on my way home in a minute, and won't be at a PC for about an hour and a half - don't finish Thunderscape until I'm home, damnit!! ;)

hunvagy: Huh, for a moment I thought I was hallucinating, but apparently not. Pray tell me what's the reason in bringing Super Hexxagon to GOG for 2.99 when it's 99 cents (!) on the humble store? o_O

ahab: Humble are having a opening sale and agreed with the dev on that price??????
Yeah, was checking their lineup for thursday/friday and it is just sitting there at 0.99.

TheJadedOne: Ha! Good luck is way better than "dedication". Looked at the front page for the first time in almost 4 hours and there's Thunderscape, the only game I wanted to get out of this sale. (Though, I also picked up Age of Wonder: Shadow Magic earlier as a "target of opportunity" so I no longer have to use the CD when playing.)
Im glad you got what you wanted. Regardless whether by dumb luck or not. :D

Funny. That supplemental is almost exactly what happens...

It's a limited time special on the Humble Store. It's normal price is the same as GOG, $2.99.

Briareos262: omg really. Virtually nothing went thru when I called it quits when Books of Unwritten Tales came up. So how many hours was that stuck here?
avatar
Alien8n: BG2 went? Glad I got that yesterday now :) Fell asleep about 4 hours ago and woke up again about an hour and a half ago.
Hmm wow. Thats why I like some of these break time in slow poke games with 400+ copies to sift through. It gives one a chance to sleep and recharge when the next lineup of games rolls around =)

Miasmata was featured as free before I slept... but it went so fast that I couldn't read if it was "last chance" or not.
Ok, I skimmed through the list again and now I'm waiting for Rogue Legacy, I have no mouth, Nexus and Reus. I might even get Shadowman if it comes before the others. I have fond memories of playing it and I can be a hero to the community again in the process ^_^

So you are saying that your type of sleeping is the Fallout 3 type where you slide a slider and wake up exactly x hours later? :D
