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

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

zlep: It's a limited time special on the Humble Store. It's normal price is the same as GOG, $2.99.
Wait, how did I miss that? Its REGULAR price is 2.99?
...
GOG
GOOOOOOOOOOG

Where's my Transarctica?

YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE NOW
What did you get already in the promo and what are you looking for, guys?

Briareos262: 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 =)

mantarrochen: 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

hunvagy: Ah, okay then. Move along, nothing to see here just a very tired person on a friday xD
I guess that GOG already included the usual 60-80% discount into it and therefore had to put the price at $3 in order to sell it during sales at around $1.

And I hope you can recover from your tirement, after all weekend is coming. Playtime. :)

ErekoseDM: i already got Syberia 1, was hoping any from my top batch might have gotten added.
im sure id miss everything trying to comb through the 150+ pages since ive been at work

Stooner: 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.
yea the 'free' ones are impossible (should just label all those 'no chance')
and you cant blink or you might miss the name of it at least.
Oh I know. Ill lie down again and watch another episode of "The Good Wife", Season 4. Yeah. By then the countdown will be at 200. :P
Should I buy Thunderscape? I don't know

Yes exactly. If I recall the earlier Fallouts had that too with my many extensive numerous playthrus ^_^

I don't think free games count as last chance either way. So if it hasn't been on sale the third time around, it will appear eventually.

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.

Same here, had one yesterday that allowed me to cook a meal for 4. I did have some help though, I had my daughter on clicking duty. Still didn't get any freebies though, just errors and out of lucks :/

So far I've managed to bag:
BG 1
BG 2
Icewind Dale
Evoland (for my daughter)
Startopia
Theme Hospital
Master of Orion 1 & 2
The Blackwell Bundle (for the other half, she loves detective mystery games)
Wing Commander IV
Alpha Centauri
Thief 2

Now waiting for Planetscape Torment and NWN 1 & 2
