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

Icewind Dale was gone pretty fast even at 400 copies...


Who does't already own Icewind Dale?
QUESTION: what happens if someone selects a game to purchase, but cancels the checking after the promo is over? Are the not-claimed games gonna be available later at some point?
Wargame...meh. Already have airland battle so the wait continues for battle realms.

jazmyselfandi: Will this last for five minutes? can I go pee?
You might have a chance with Wargame.

revanbh: Wargame? Have it.
How desirable is the game exactly?
I can't believe I missed two games while flipping between tabs.

I'm guessing the non-free games aren't subtracted until the sale completes.

Thespian*: Strange. I clicked Giana's as soon as it appeared and received the "sorry, offer expired" message each time I tried to enter from the frontpage (whilst, the game counter steadily declined).

Hilarious! :D
Here's what I did:
Ctrl+C at CC number :p
That way you don't waste much time typing.

They sold only 70 copies, this may explain.

DProject: Managed to get Tropico :D

Austrobogulator: H...how?
Don't know if I should share this, but by clicking around the general area of the "Buy now" button as soon as the picture flashed. I didn't even have enough reaction time to notice what I would be redeeming :P But that's how it seems to go, if you want a shot at that freebie...

Vitek: How many Tropicos were there?
Four I believe. We need the latest one here some day :)
