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.

CelineSSauve: They keep you coming back?
Unfortunately, they still don't offer regional pricing for Canada, so I end up paying 2.5% to my credit card on top of the exchange rate...

I haven't spotted games cheaper than they were before?

I can't see any games that changed price during the sale. Which game were you looking at?
Posted March 24, 2016
Anyone else notice that you don't have to buy all the games in the multi-packs to get the discount? If you search for the individual games they are all discounted by the same percentage. I managed to get ANNO 1404 for $5, instead of having to buy the whole pack for ~$15.

(first world problems)

So I bought 6 games on this sale and go to my collection to see them.
I see that I passed 100 games in it and at first I was very happy about it.

Then, the horrible truth shows up... I can't see them all in one page! Nooooooo!
They were so beautiful altogether! Why GOG, whyyyyyyyy?

It's actually in the sale FAQ that it works that way. Part 8: "What happens if I own part of a bundle?"

Believe me, you'll stop caring at some point - when you hit 200+ games, if not sooner. :p

Thanks for pointing that out. I'd missed the FAQ, however I DID NOT already own part of the bundle. I bought a single game from the bundle which the FAQ specifically states is not possible.


[i]8) What happens if I own part of a bundle?
Bundles purchased during the Insomnia Sale are treated like any other bundle. If you own one or more games included in a bundle, you'll only be charged for the games you're missing. The bundle's final price will be adjusted during checkout.
It is not possible to select a single game from bundles during Insomnia.
Don't forget! When you purchase a bundle with multiple games, each one will count towards your next free game.[/i]

I did the same. I already own BG1 & II EE on Steam, so I picked up IWD EE here when it was on sale.

Sorry - I misunderstood. Yeah, that's really unusual!

Yeah, I'm already letting this issue (?) go and I can imagine the second page filled (what a beauty), but it's going to take a while... took me 5 years (plus lots of freebies) to reach 100.

Absolutely. We don't have a problem, I don't know what people even talk about. *sweeps her 370-game library under the rug*

I saw some users on this thread who weren't too happy with what this Insomnia Sale offered, but I was lucky to see pretty much all of the games I've been wanting to play for quite a while now (like Van Helsing) show up this time. Too bad I missed the Divinity, Broken Sword and D&D bundles, though... Those would have completed my wishlist.

Still, I got exactly 10 games plus the freebie, so I am more than satisfied :) That's going to be a few months of gameplay for the price of one full-priced game. Thanks GoG!! Considering I am new here, this was quite a welcoming present.

needed more classics than the 5 or so ....................

by the way why didn't they give the sale flash its own page this time? I hate having it on the opening page..............................
