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

saberwolfxm: It's 2:30 am here, hoping I can still work with 3 hours sleep :-D
Sleep?

I'm on in six hours, not off for 21, probably something I should be doing now.

Gabriel Knight*?

*Haven't had a chance to play it yet. Picked it up on the sale last week.
Me too, I need at least 3 hours of sleep or I'll pass out tomorrow.

Frostyfirefly: Maybe because he saw you clicking to get a free Jack Keane game?
May be he saw me looking at the Jack Keane page for five hours

Melhelix: Geneforge Saga was up for free earlier, sorry.

Don't Starve is currently chained up in a closet never to see the light of day again. :(

Devoidless: If it's in a closet does it get a bonus mini-game called 'Don't Scarves', where you resist the urge to wear a stylish but nonfunctional scarf?
Scarves are extremely functional.

For example, you can use them to strangle people who make terrible, horrible puns.

Now why would you pun-ish them like that? Harharhar--*gak*

Valve would somehow get involved. It'd be the new TF2 accessory of choice. :P

I'd argue with that. He called the police!
Good morning. How long did it take for Jack Keane 2 to go away?
avatar
Melhelix: Well that's because Brütal Legend also had Tim Curry. And Rob Halford. And Ozzy Osbourne. And actually pretty much everyone ever and was a completely awesome game made of metal, noise, blood, and FIRE! \m/
Awh hell, now I need to play it again.

BananaJane: Tim Curry's in it?
I guess I HAVE to play now.
Tim was the single greatest reason to play Sacrifice.

*facepalm*
How many games are left to go through?

Sigh. I think this promotion is going to end up working on me by reverse psychology.
If I was a Jack Keane developer and visited this topic... oh God, I don't want to think about it :)
