Answer: Monday, August 25, 2025.

How the riddle decodes

“Check your school bags…” -> points to GOG’s Back to School sale.

“…practice dividing length by 4.” -> a metre / 4 = 25 cm, so the day is 25 -> August 25 fits the late-August timing GOG usually uses for this sale (e.g., 2019: Aug 30; 2024: Aug 26).

No news yet. But only 3 active promos left, compared to the usual 10+. And the last of them ends tomorrow evening...

We already know it's tomorrow.
Do you tthink any of the games that are currently discounted will be still on sale during the back to school promo ?

Is there historical precedent to believe that? If not, no.

When you go to a specific game page on sale, the page displays exactly until when it will be on sale. You can therefore check games that you are interested in and answer your own question on a game by game basis.

Using this technique, I have found at least one game with a date later than tomorrow, so the answer to your question is yes.

Disclaimer: This is GOG.

Exactly!

For example, Riftbreaker is currently on sale at an all-time low price and will stay that way for a while. I just bought the deluxe version. :)

Love it when GOG announces things somewhere but not on their own homepage.
Is it happening today then?

pkk234: Is it happening today then?
Yes. Just two more hours.
Just started watching The Expanse yesterday, and I love it!
Very good timing with 50% off on the Expanse Telltale game today :)
