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

Fezred: I know it isn't in this sale or on the site yet, but I'd love to see the original Legacy of Kain on here. It's tied up in some legal nightmare, I suspect.

BananaJane: Blood Omen? It's on PSN though.
It is? I'm not though. Damn, hope it comes out here then. I really loved that game back in the day. :(

I'm a 99% PC gamer really, so I miss out on these console exclusives.

undeadcow: Magrunner has already gone twice, fwiw.
Damn :-(

+1 man, it would be great to have it drm-free and revisit occasionally. That was a true gem.
To any GOG Staff watching the thread, Good Morning, sale is great so far... bar the Jack Keane 2 thing :D...

Ghorpm: Blacksmith's equipment has the same price all the time. Getting two or three blood items is a very good idea - true, it'll decrease your health but it also adds vampirism so you'll be able to heal yourself. Try to use it with barbarian - you should be able to survive long enough to make some decent profit
Yeah, love vampirism. Most of the time I end up with 90%+ health, but it doesn't take more than one or two rooms to deplete my health.

I don't know. Maybe my play style is defective.
Again another game I can't buy cause I can only make 20 purchases, if anyone wants to trade with me that be cool.
I can buy the more expensive games on this promo and trade them for several of the cheaper games.
example: I can buy a single 9.99 game, and you buy 5 x 1.99 games, and we trade those :P. O well.
Hey guys any chances of Thief 3 or 1 showing up ?

Frostyfirefly: It was here a while ago, it went away faster than when Nupraptor kicked the bucket.
avatar
Kunovski: are you sure? I'm pretty certain it never was here (I'd buy it if it were)
My mistake, I thought Soul Reaver. I failed :(
Well I've picked up several gift games - and anted Rogue Legacy for $4.99 - so if anyone has a Rogue Legacy to trade, post what you want and maybe we can trade. That includes buying another $4.99 that comes up.

npalsensei: There was a free Jack while I was asleep? Damn, I missed all the fun. Went to sleep when Jack was on sale some hours ago.
avatar
Artificer: About two games after Jack was on sale, they put up 15 free copies, presumably to taunt us.
Would have tried to snatch a copy. xP Not paying for Jack at that price but free Jack is ok xP
has Assassin's Creed come around more than once yet? I missed the first time it was on sale cause I was eating dinner and I would like to grab it if possible :)

For a while, I was kicking my own ass by equipping too much Blood gear.

Turns out you do actually need a health pool, particularly for those special little moments like accidentally skipping your butt across a spike room.
