Limited-quantity deals round-the-clock | Tired-looking sheep.



UPDATE: Time to go to bed, everyone! It's been a fun, intense, coffee-fueled week but the sheep has finally saled on this Insomnia sale so everyone can now get their (hardly needed) beauty sleep. Or go try out those fine-looking games they snagged moments before stocks disappeared. So long and don't let the bedbugs bite. Slay them for precious XP, instead.
Remember to check your email for your unlocked freebies, and you can always contact <span class="bold">Support</span> if there is anthing you're missing.



Don't fall asleep, don't look away… heck, just give up blinking.
Prepare yourselves a cauldron of hot coffee and stock up on eyedrops! Our infamous Insomnia Sale returns with a relentless stream of limited-quantity deals, one game after the other, nonstop until the games run out. Or the sheep doze off.

We've been studying your valuable feedback on this annual event, including comments like "AAAAARRRRGHHHHHH!!!" and "Please, why won't you let me sleep?!". We took them to heart and decided that what you guys are saying is that you need more gaming stimulants to fight away sleepiness. Worry not, we're here to help.

You lucky Insomniacs will also be treated to a number of games never before seen on GOG.com as well as the best-ever deal on our crowning jewel - The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (-50% after the recent price drop, that's $24.99 in the USA).


If you want to learn more about the intricacies behind this whole science of non-sleep, check out the promo <span class="bold">FAQ</span>. But don't dally there too long, because games will start disappearing before your bloodshot eyes!

The GOG.com Insomnia Sale starts Monday, March 21, 2:00 PM GMT and will run until the limited-quantity deals run out.

While counting sheep and game deals, make sure to also drop by our <span class="bold">imgur</span> page and grab your Insomnia wallpapers.

xep624: Holy crap! I just got back from work and all I can see are games quickly disappearing - Bird Story and Ultimate General Gettysburg just now. Can anyone please direct me to the list of games that were on sale - I don't know why but I like to stare at that list :)

zlep: Sleepy Sheep Tracker List

Games are cycling *very* fast for this sale. GOG seem to be following a small-quantities, return-often approach for this insomnia.
Return often? Very fast?
I've been idling with a tab open for the better part of 5+ hrs now waiting for the Baldurs/Icewind enhanced deal to roll back around again..
Man I hate how GoG keep doing these stupid limited time sale things instead of just having everything laid out for us to purchase.

Steam atleast learnt the lesson and dropped that ridiculousness..

Southpawe: Really? 12.99 for a old as crap game like Turok.
It's all the licensing headaches behind the game that have jacked up the price.

Also it's definitely not crap.

Well I didn't say it was crap, I said it was as old as crap.
I never played before so I can't judge if its crap or gold.

rebellion: So just select Not Applicable in the dropdown list.
I don't see what all the fuss is about mate :s

ReynardFox: Obviously you've never had requests ignored by GOG support before, and that's just what's happened with free-form messages I have sent them in the past.
Just fill in any number, and give them the real one in the message section. That's what I do, if I need to contact them about an order. A person reads it, so no big deal. (And yes, it would be best if the order pulldown actually listed our recent orders, but at least there's an easy workaround).

I've never had an overcharge/refund issue ignored by GOG (although telling them about website/download issues has never got me anything other that an irrelevant form letter reply).

Oh sorry, i misread. But yeah the amount of companies that needed to be quelled to get this game rereleased at all is the reason it's so pricy.

Yeah, that's what I've gone ahead ahead and done, now to wait for... whenever the heck support actually gets to the message. But given requests I've made to support get answered only 50% of the time, I'm feeling rather antsy about the whole situation. It's certainly preventing me from actually enjoying or engaging in the sale though.

Also, so it's not just my order list that no longer shows my newer purchases? Interesting...

They should do a remake of the game now. Something better than the 2008 one they did though.
like some real ps4 open world dino hunting crap.

It wouldn't really be Turok though, it's a comic book series and I'd really like another story driven game that actually follows the character like these oldies did.

I wouldn't be against your idea for a game though if it happened, it would still be a better idea than the bland, linear nothing that was Turok 2008.

No, they won't. This is a web design fail.

It makes it inconvinient to look at the description. If somehing is not easy, you loose sales. Simple rule.
