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 thought 'I have no mouth and I must scream' was going to take forever. Then I missed out on the free game. *Headdesk*
Is Erica Reed on sale as well? I saw it flash by as a freebie, but did not see any sale yet. Have I missed it?

Aemenyn: Has Master of Orion been featured as a freebie?
I suddenly noticed it in my catalog and I'm fairly certain not to have bought it.
I did try getting a couple of the free games though, but never managed to redeem one as far as I know.
Yes
So, that makes 9 more games in my collection (close to the 200 titles bar now). Thank you gog for this sale/marketing stunt and goodnight everyone!

Flam3crow: Yeah, it was free for 2 seconds.
Thanks.
Seems like I'm the victim of a very lucky server screwup or something.

I think that was on sale a while back
It went pretty fast if I remember
Thank you GOG.com for this crazy sales. :)

Got one game missing though even the payment went through. I did send a mail to support and hope I will see it tomorrow when I wake up! Good night everyone!
Thank you, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, for providing me with some time to catch my breath! So far, all I was able to nab was Baldur's Gate 2.
Is there any strategy for the freebies, or is it just luck?

Good night catpower1980, sweet dreams!
I think if GOG kept each game even at 200 copies each the sale would move on much faster. Then even with repeats things would be speedy.
Now we gotta wait for RCT3.

Roman5: Best sale on GOG this year so far

Can't wait to see what the christmas sale will bring
(This is something I just thought of just now)

I be surprised if I see the image of a PC game that GOG never released until now like either a LucasArts,Blizzard, or Valve game or even games like Command and Conquer and Vampires Bloodlines.

Erica Reed has been up at least once as a sale. I presume it will show up again as it seems they're keeping things going.
All right, I quit. I thought were were only doing 101. I can only guess that the rest of the deals will be the same games as before.
