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

mrking58: Popoulus for free! I think some people are cheating with scripts

Cocoal: I think that too. Its imposible be so fast
Ah, all this reminds me of the "rare-grabbing thieves" of Ultima Online back in the days...
Ugh, just came home. How many great games have I already missed?
Sales been too fast, wasn't able to get thief.
Well I'm waiting for a deal to pick all of the Thief at once.....so...I shouldn't feel so bad for letting this pass...
Even at this price not buying sword and stars just on principal
Heavens above, Thief Gold was gone faster than free drinks on Annual AA Metting!

And GOG, play fair - I click like one second after Populous for free appear, only to be greeted with "this offer already expired...".

Maybe,
I didn't even have a chance to see any of the free games!

It seems fairly possible, there are probably hundreds of people sitting and waiting for new games to pop up.

Cavalary: You go take a leak and miss seeing two games :))
Bring a bottle. These free games are going way too fast. Hand - eye coordination necessary for it is not possible.
Just watching this sale is...kinda fun.

Not sure what that says about me.

sunshinecorp: They managed to give away copies of Omerta? Wow. :D

MobiusArcher: You would be surprised what people will take if you put a "free" sign on it.
GOG should put this to the Test. Masters of Orion 3 for free.

If your telling me to do that so I don't end up buying something you want, it won't work. Next time leave out the part where I miss seeing two games. Its a big giveaway.
