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

TurnipSlayerr: You guys are lucky the higher ups didn't go for my idea of blocking all sales on the site until 10000 copies of Jack Keane 2 were sold. ;)
;)

How are you guys finding the customer comments on the sale? ;)

stutzjon: Oh man. Thanks.

MGShogun: But I can be wrong on that one, though. Someone need to post the list.
NVN Diamond had its Last Chance, fortunately NVN 2 still up for grabs if that helps.

Haha, would be awesome if that offer was open to me as well. Would very much appreciate if someone could gift me NWN2 if I do end up having to sleep.

FreDDaN: So how many energy drinks or caffeine drinks have you drunk sofar because of the sale? 5+ for me sofar.

Bovrillor: Two cups of coffee every hour for the last 31ish hours.

I've also taken the two largest dumps of my life.

I feel so ill :/
At least magrunner gave me time to empty my ass. I feel so much better, now.

snip3rfire: I think if GOG ever run a sale like this again, it should come with a serious health warning or something. The lack of sleep I've got in the past few days because of my addiction to this sale is unbelievable. I've never experienced such a sale before.
I'm mostly sticking it out in here because so many other are too, and I might get one more game, if that game I have in mind pops up before I'm through for the day... :D
I bought Anodyne and have been playing it, didn't miss much, it seems, just another round of Startopia, which I don't care about, and now Magrunner, which kind of interests me but definitely doesn't run on this lame old computer. So, I'll keep on watching the thread.

Still freebies too but don't have the list of those.
As an idea for future sales, instead of freebies why not give a random chance of getting it for free only when you try to buy it? That way it goes to someone that genuinely wanted the game instead of someone that clicked the fastest before even seeing what it was.
