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

If (Last Chance) Eador sells out, how many more last chance games do we think are left?

Kaitu: Here's what should be left for sale in Round Three (not including whatever is left as freebies):

pbnjoe: System Shock is gone I'm pretty sure, I think I saw "Last Chance" on the freebie that shot by my screen.
I'm hoping not. It seems like they slipped in a third of the titles into each round as freebies and still had them for sale (Jack Keane sold 3 times and one freebie). We'll have to wait and see. Haven't seen any of the other freebies in the third round for sale yet.

Devoidless: There we go, I'm counting that. Kudos!

I also would of accepted "Sorcerers are born with the ability, wizards must be taught". Same things, different wording.

Kudos!

CorranHorn: In Sword of the truth, Wizards are born with the magic but need to train to be able to use it.
Well, there is lore that always is on the outside fringes of the mainstream lore. It's not a matter of which one is more correct than the other, it's just a matter of 99% saying one thing and 1% saying another.
Eador truly does seek to become Master of a Broken World. I wonder if the Triad is involved.
ROTT was slower. I had time to do the dishes, prepare dinner and eat while ROTT was selling. This one appear slower because it has more games.
The trailer for Eador really makes me want to play it, but I'm not sure the reviews could possibly be any worse. Shame...

58. Thunderscape $2.39
[...]
105. Thunderscape $2.39

TheJadedOne: So two more shots at Thunderscape? (I've only actually been remembering to look at the GOG page maybe once every few hours -- little chance I actually catch it. Maybe there's a firefox plugin that will sound an alarm when a keyword shows up...)
I think that list is just a copy from the one that was on reddit; that list started repeating towards the end. I would start with that list, remove all duplicates, and then those that have appeared with the Last Chance tag that were not freebies.
While I do want System Shock 2, I'll be happy if I can get Nexus.

Is Eador worth it?

It varies but in classic RPG anyone can train to be a wizard, but sorcerors are born. In this fashion most elves are actually sorcerors, being creatures of magic.

Bovrillor: System Shock 2 FREEBIE has gone, you might get it for $2 if that fucking wizard ever goes away
I'll take it for $2. I think Keaneador the Fire Within The Broken Game is going to be there for a while yet, though.

Even though the question was already answered, I'm giving you a bonus point. Why? Because I always make my sorcerers elves because of that reasoning.

I think it's worth $5.99.

I bet they are involved, it's a conspiracy!

Yes I remember reading something about this, could it have been in LOTR?
Oh, anyone on here a fan of the really early Final Fantasy games check out Evoland when it comes back round. Really interesting concept.
