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?!".

Maxvorstadt: I have still 7 more games to buy to unlock a freebie. It`s not really fair!!!
You might not even get one after buying 7. :D

Broken Sword bundle counts as 5 games, Anno bundle counts as 4, Walking Dead and Legend of Kyrandia bundles count as 3. You can do it :)

musteriuz: This suggestion might be pointless, but I'd like to see one extra detail on the "game image" that shows which game is for sale. Next to the icon to show that it works on Windows, I'd be happy to see an extra character - X if it will work from XP onwards, V if it will work from Vista onwards, 7 if you need Win7 onwards. I'd be pretty miffed if I buy e.g. Ultimate General Gettysburg and then find out that it won't work on my Vista PC. These time-limited offers does not afford one the opportunity to go and investigate game cards and the page also only shows if you own the game, but not if you've wishlisted it.
If it doesn't work you'll get a refund though.
Just contact GOG support.
I suggest 1 freebie for all that buy at least 1 game on this sale!
Speculation on why some games/bundles aren't coming up often (Anno, D&D):

-We know there is a limited total stock of each game, which is part of why there isn't a time deadline ("This sale will be finished by April 2nd"). Each offer is a small batch out of the total.

-I've noticed that some offers seem to load with the bar partially empty, as opposed to starting full and rapidly emptying.

Speculation: Everyone who manages to click in time on the sale card with get the sale price. If more people clicked in that sale window than there were copies left in that small batch, then the extra copies are pulled from the next batch.

So if there are 14/40 D&D copies left in the batch, and 55 people manage to click in the same second (or w/e time frame), then the current batch is finished, the next batch is already bought out, and another copy from the batch after the next batch is ALSO gone.

This is, of course, just speculation on my part.

musteriuz: Since the reviews are not really helpful, can anyone tell me how many of the dreamfall chapters season pass have been released and how many are still to come?
Four chapters are out, one is still to come.

I never even saw the Anno bundle :(

Habanerose: Yup, as there are no other freebies around, AFAIK.
Well that's lame, here I thought there was something to keep my attention focused on the sale...

There's an icon for Mac and Linux, though not for supported versions of them. Or do you mean an icon for OSX 10.10, 10.11, 10.12 etc?
Well, I just lost my right to complain about the sale from here on out. Was sort of disappointed in missing 'the bundle' and was buying middling things just to participate, but finally got to 10 and my freebie was Witcher 3. Thanks GOG!
