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

TurnipSlayerr: You guys are lucky the higher ups didn't go for my idea of blocking all sales on the site until 10000 copies of Jack Keane 2 were sold. ;)
ahh, I would of payed you guys to do that.

Meriande: Well I'm sure my dreams are ruined for now....
Waves bye bye to NWN2 and Theme Hospital
Will be going to bed soon

Miraculous: Given that Magrunner and NWN2 are in the same block, the chances of the next game being NWN2 is very good. I hope.
No, chances aren't good, It's totally random now, the old blocks mean nothing, if it was following the blocks I'd have Ultima now.

Bovrillor: OMG I've been waiting 31 hours for Don't Starve now, and all we get is the unobtainable 'freebie'.

Please God let it cycle in already.

Briareos262: I'm still in that same boat and I think a few others too if there around.....

no no no ,.. there are no game with that titel ..and it will not be free! Go take some sleep.... no hurry^^ sweet dreams^^
If NWN2 isnt after magrunner then I will miss it this time around. Really need to get sleep.

Why oh why didn't I buy it when I first saw it? Oh, right, got it on steam. But having a DRM free backup is too good to resist.
I wonder who the 85 people who will pick up Keanerunner
I've been posting list updates, but I need to leave for awhile. If you guys are finding them helpful and anyone wants to take over, please feel free.

Austrobogulator: Another freebie missed.

BTW, Magrunner's prettty good.
avatar
GhostwriterDoF: I only click on a freebie if it is a game I want but lose out because I take the time to see what the game is... heh
Same here - every time a freebie comes up I make the "mistake" of actually reading the name of the game (!) - and (on top of that) take a few more milliseconds to mentally compute whether I already own the game, and whether it's a game that someone else might get more enjoyment from than I would - by which time, of course, it's gone ... and the whole thing's a bit moot really XD

I hope too. To don't be tempted to buy another offer that might appears before NWN2. My banker would be grateful.

Piranjade: Wrong impression, it's a simulation, you ahve to manage a space station with different goal in each mission or you just play the sandbox mode. It IS a great game, I own it since 2011 and still play it occasionally.
avatar
itchy01ca01: You convinced me. I had to be one of the last people to buy, because as soon as my order went through, i was at the next game sale.
You will not regret it, it is a wonderful game. :-D
And I made a typo, I meant 2002. That's when I got Startopia.

#Edit: And if you have trouble on mission 7, don't hesitate to read a guide. That one can be hard.
