Spend 15 USD to get a free game • Horror games on GOG Connect • 300+ deals up to -90%



LAST CHANCE: The Halloween Sale Finale is now underway! Make sure you treat yourself to a FREE copy of Tales from the Borderlands by picking up enough tasty deals before November 2, 11PM UTC.
Plenty new games have been added to the lineup, so finding the one for you should be dead-easy.



Scary good deals are coming to GOG.com! Come and knock on our door, grab a handful of Halloween offers from 200+ deals up to 90% off. Spend 15 USD or more to get a free game, and check out horror games on GOG Connect.

We stocked up on some full-size treats this year:
Get Tales from the Borderlands for FREE when you spend 15 USD or more during the Halloween Sale – it's a story-based romp through the ridiculous world of Borderlands, and one of the most beloved Telltale Games productions.

Horror comes to GOG Connect: Add nearly thirty scary games to your account during the sale, including: Hand of Fate, SOMA, Amnesia, Layers of Fear, and more. GOG Connect is a great way to build up your GOG library, letting you claim select Steam purchases for a DRM-free copy on GOG.com – learn more on GOG.com/connect.

Last but not least: the deals! We've put up over two hundred games on sale with bundles and discounts as high as -90%. Our favorites include:
Quake and DOOM classics (-66%); D'n'D Bundle with Forgotten Realms, Ravenloft and more (-66%); Hotline Miami (-80%), Call of Cthulhu: Prisoner of Ice & Shadow of the Comet (-75%); The Suffering series (-20%); Darkest Dungeon (-60%) and its Crimson Court expansion (-20%), The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (-80%), Bad Mojo Redux (-90%) – find over two hundred more offers available throughout the entire sale.

What's more, every Halloween bundle is a "completion bundle": get even better discounts when you grab all games in a bundle – and if you own some of them already, you just need to get the games you're missing!


[i]The 2017 Halloween Sale will last until November 2, 11PM UTC.
Amount required to unlock the free game can vary between regions. Free game codes will be distributed via email when the stretch goal is reached.[/i]

PromZA: Would help if actual amounts are stated.
That would be tough to do as exchange rates fluctuate but yeah, a ball park number would be a good place to start for those not paying in USD.

Perhaps someone mentioned it before, but I find placing non-discounted games among "today's highlights" of a sale (Elex, Original Sin II) very annoying and somewhat disingenuous. Those weren't even released during the sale. They are in no way highlights of this sale.

It's October 31st! Give us a Legacy of Kain bundle already! :D

Give us Halloween Harry/Alien Carnage as our annual freebie! ;-P

thanks for the good sale, despite myself I ended up buying around 5 games, all deeply discounted so I dont feel that guilty

RWarehall: But apparently I cannot repost the link likely due to some trade scammer de-repping me and GoG's complete apathy about it.
Contact Fables, she helped me when I was being lolrandomly derepped in release threads.

Change the currency (at the bottom right on any store page) to USD and you'll know exactly how much you've spent so far.

I did in March. I was told she would look into it. Months later told me her search query didn't show signs of abuse as only one person downrepped me just 19 times and no one else more than 10 and the vast majority under 5 times. After I explained that doesn't explain how I was losing points every day including most days where I was only posting in the Mafia thread (hundreds of points lost) and how her script is clearly not capturing the abuse and explained about the serial downrepper who we think is using a script to exploit it, she said the web team could investigate; it can most likely be done, but "not any time soon". It's good to know GoG cares so much...

Hmm . The forum software can be still abused via scripts ?

It's probably dependent on country as well, I personally cannot change to anything else other than USD.

Of course, if you're not in a region that uses one of the supported currencies, your only option will be USD. But then what's the problem?


PS: While I was writing this reply I've realized that maybe this isn't an issue of currency conversion, but that there are different actual thresholds depending on your region (e.g. poorer regions only need to spend, say, the equivalent of $5 in order to qualify for a copy of Tales From The Borderlands). If that's the case, then there's no use in changing the displayed curency, and I agree that GOG should have made the different thresholds explicit.

No problem, just pointing out that some users may not be able to change it :)

Painted_Doll: Hmm . The forum software can be still abused via scripts ?
I'm suffering the same downrepping that Phaolo, TinyE, Zeogold and who knows how many else have and the common theme is centered around giveaways or giving advice how not to be scammed in a trade. I've lost 700 points in just the last 7 months and if you consider that there is a max loss of 6 per day, but I gain one for every daily post and that some people have tried upvoting me just to stop my decline, that's pretty much maximum points lost each and every day. Sounds like a script to me unless he does it by hand each day...

Just sayin'.
