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

Briareos262: I kinda forgot the exact title. I think some Age of Wonders game and something else that I don't have yet in my library.

Anyways that's a good list to stay up for, those were really good deals ^_^
It'll save me roughly 37 dollars, so definitely.

That was my first RPG and haunted my dreams of a good game ever since.

Exactly. People aren't sitting up all night because they've got shitloads of disposable income. If they did, they wouldn't give a crap about the sale. They'd rest and buy it at regular price.

I wish I could claim I was getting that much benefit. I'm only waiting for two games, but I think I've reached obsession point.

Expeditions: Conquistador and I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream for me. But I did get several off my wish list in the earlier rounds, so the lack of sleep has been worth it.

Just added it all up, between what I want and what I have, I'll have saved 123 dollars by the time it's all done.

RCR has blown past the 4 hour mark and shows no sign of slowing down with glorious 213 copies still remaining.

And here I thought a mere 2hr nap might cause me to miss out on the next game. Silly me.

First there was the Shadowman.
Then there was the Quanox 2 Freebie.
And now. Now there is RETRO CITY RAMPAAAAAGE!

good games. I have them both. The sale price is totally worth the wait for them. Although on the bright side they might be on sale again in the holiday sale however not as deeply discounted.
