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

Anytime, fellow insomniac!
Glad to hear that Insomnia came up in the Q&A! Does anyone have a link to a summary of what was discussed during the Q&A? I'm somewhat loathe to trawl through the whole thread or video just to get the salient points. :)
What? This thread's asleep?

Bah, as the saying goes, there's plenty of time to sleep when you're dead. Besides, a good Insomnia sale will rouse even the deepest of slumberers.

Hehe, that means GOG must have 2 Insomia sales.
Still here!?!?!?!?!

Holy jumping Mario - that is staying power!!
Forgot all about this thread.

So... how may copies of Jack Keane 2 are left before we move onto the next game?

They are my plankton. Your dreams are my krill. Your old sock, that gets left alone.

I didn't think "always" was an ambiguous word.
