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 just grabbed King of Dragon Pass I thought it didn't look that great at first but it looks like it could be fun and something different. I don't remember that game at all back when it came out.

saruchan: Sacred Gold we know. You fell asleep after Eador, and BG2 was two games after that, so I'm betting you missed that one too. I know you got Nexus and the Neverwinters, and I'm betting that one of those is the code you're giving out. You'd missed Thief 2 earlier, but someone traded it to you (for the Nexus code, I think.)

Based on the list, it shouldn't be HOMM5, you bought Evoland, and I'm pretty sure you were here for Tropico 3.

I'm going with Sacred and BG2 for now, but I'm still digging.

I guess I won't keep digging, then! =)

D'oh!
Who is redeeming these codes? I realize sleep has been hard to come by as of late, but I feel like I'm not even close. Missed all the freebies, but that is ok considering my location. Perhaps I should start drinking coffee....or popping Adderall. ;)

groze: I don't think so, GOG and its parent company, CD Projekt, are fine and healthy, as far as I know. They just like to spoil their community with sales like this every once in a while. I'm guessing it's probably because they wanted to have a Fall sale but with the Christmas sale approaching, they chose this flash sale format. Then again, it could be a whole number of reasons, I'm bad at that kind of thing (economics and PR and commerce, etc).

I do think, however, GOG is doing just fine. If they were in trouble of any kind I'm positive they'd let us know.

jackster79: Not to mention they just recently advertised for open positions at their site in Poland, so I cannot imagine they would be hiring if they were going under.
I want GOG to last at least as long as I do. I hope this sale did for them what the expected, I know it allowed me to get games that I would have to wait some time to collect and the forum users have been great to be with. Don't know how I could ask for more .

trustymutsi: Gah! I know! Same with me!

Now I want it again :(

Fellin: I gave in >_>
I will succumb to temptation too! =/
I missed something after Brutal Legend?
Just noticed the ZORK ANTHOLOGY on the front page. I only own Grand Inquisitor, but haven't yet played it. What do you all think of the series?

shadowbaneaxe: Things ranging from ordinary (marital disputes) to very strange (forest nymphs giving your men STDs) can happen, and you have to pick one out of (usually) 3-4 options how you will deal with the situation. The skills of your council members can help give some options a better chance of success.
Now it's clear why Licurg loves the game xD
Any Idea's what's left?
