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

Idonoghue: can anyone tell me how many times Alpha Centauri has cycled? I have always wanted to grab that classic..
I only saw it once, and it was for free

saberwolfxm: I just had a horrible thought. If all these game promos are repeating themselfs what happens when Jack Kreane 2 comes back around?

Fictionvision: I predict a forum riot.
I predict looting, massive earthquakes and a end to civilization as we know it ;-)

Frostyfirefly: I hope we get Don't Starve as a freebie.
I don't I have zero chances of any free games due to DSL and location wise. I hope for a sale price, at least a better chance of getting it.
Boy, I really hope Jack Keane 1 is next so I can complete the set on GOG. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Devoidless: So it took 4.5 hours to sell 100 copies of Keane.

300 copies of Chaos Engine almost drained in less than 30 minutes.

It was a plan the entire time.
Each thief game sold out in like, 1 minute or less

I just hope Don't Starve wasn't devoured by the everlasting and malignant Jack Keane.
Everyone logged on during the hours of JK2 gets one free game :)

I can dream, right?

Yeah, and try to click on it and it swaps to another game.... With the free game count at something like 20 at a time they don't live long enough for people to see it before others already claim it.

It devours all :O

GaminggUy45: Dead serious this is something to tell the grand kids as a bed time story.

BananaJane: "If you kids don't go to bed, JACK KEANE WILL GO ON SALE AGAIN"
hahahahahaha
It is nice to that Jack Keane didn't kill the promo
Well, I scored Spellforce Platinum and Tex Mruphy: Under a Killing Moon so far. A little disappointing that more games from my wishlist weren't on sale, but no big deal at all seeing as how gog's big end of the year sale is just around the corner. :)

We should, it was supposed to be quick sale for each game.... at least that is what I drew from reading between the lines.

Next time, I hope they do a TIME based sale, like 10 minutes per game.

Well, yes. Those are Thief games. :p

Chaos Engine isn't even near Thief yet it still isn't horrible. Place Chaos Engine after Keane and it's like offering someone a Coke after having to drink a glass of sand through a straw.
