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.

Maybe the Infinite Engine games bundle again and I would be happy ;-)

Did that bundle pop up again after the first day at all?

I just checked on that. It popped up only one time per day over the last 3 days. It has not appeared today, yet.

MainStreamDude: 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.
I'm happy enough, bought 2 games from my wishlist. Playing now Victor Vran the whole time. And I need to dust off my Joystick for X-Wing Alliance.

They preferred to sit and browse ALL the sale items in one go then not come back and enjoy the sale.

Like the terrible "new" Steam sales, where they forgot to insert the sales in the sale, giving slight discount to interesting games, trying to sell only shovelware for a deeper discounts, removing all the flash sales, because otherwise they had to do something totally new for them:

Meaning "WORK FOR THEIR MONEY."

Of course, but now they seem to play sales and support limbo, lowering the bar every month a tiny bit more.

Maybe they did not understand that if you have millions and millions of customers, it would be a good idea to invest some of the money into people for support, instead of using the usual four people group they seem to be using for all things.

I am very annoyed about steam. And I won't buy any games on the platform itself any longer. I plan to use them only as game download archive, not giving them ANY money in the future.

The need of the smartphone authenticator pissed me off big time. I owe a PC, I do not want to put my login data on an insecure android device. If I do that, I can stand naked before the dome in cologne, too. It would be the same. And the fanboys on steam don't get it. It does not add to security, it weakens security. Because they made android the next big target for these steam account hackers.

It's like painting a target on their back, saying "Hit me, I am an idiot, that get scammed easily. Please hack my cellphone, too."

Sorry for the rant.
