Did anybody reading this get a free game from the daily surprise thingy? I see literally no posts whatsoever about anybody getting anything, aside from the usual large discounts.

Actually yes I did. Look through the elephant thread.

I haven't - and doubt I will, but did see one or two others saying they have.
Thing is, I've been gifted plenty simply by being here, and won plenty of giveaways so I can't complain really.

Given the sheer number of free games they gave away at the start (already had Fallout series though) I don't blame them for making the freebies scarce. I'm sure plenty have been given away though. I just hope those that do win a freebie enjoy them.

Haven't won yet, but there is still a chance. :)

I wonder if there's actually free games now that GOG opened up the boxes. I'm sure GOG doesn't mind people re-rolling the giftboxes to get the sales they want, since it means more money for them, but I can't imagine they're leaving free games lying around for people willing to re-roll.

You can't actually see the sale prices, just the games for sale/free if you're lucky

From the change: "So we've changed our daily deals so now you can see what's games you can pick from, with the element of surprise limited to the amount of discount you'll be getting. It might by 100%, by the way, as we're adding in a bunch of free games to our daily surprises, so be sure to check them out in case there's a free game waiting for you just a click away!"
