GOG.com Brings Back Pinata Madness Sale Starting Today

You can get Deadlight: Director’s Cut for free, and take a chance on getting plenty of other games for just $3 in a pinata.

GOG.com is running another sale, and this time around they’ve brought back Pinata Madness. There’s plenty to like about this sale, especially if you’re feeling lucky.

First up, from today through August 16 at 9 AM ET, you can head over to GOG.com and grab a free copy of Deadlight: Director’s Cut. You can also find a number of titles on sale, including games like Darkest Dungeon and Pillars of Eternity for 60 percent off. But the big draw of this sale is the Pinatas, of course.

Here’s how it works: A pinata will cost you three dollars. Once you’ve purchased it, you can head over to the Pinata hub to open your pinata. What could be inside? Well, GOG doesn’t offer up the full list of games, but it does say that there are over 100 mystery games, and you could get “games like Pillars of Eternity, Shadow Warrior 2, Heroes of Might and Magic 5, Victor Vran, Saints Row 4 and more!”

You’re guaranteed to get a game worth between $5.99 and $44.99, and the games are pulled from “a pool of hand-picked games,” which includes no DLC, soundtracks, or other non-game content. Additionally, you cannot get a duplicate of a game you already own, unless you happen to own every single game that’s in the pool. If that happens, you’ll instead get a giftable copy of the game chosen for you that will never expire.

If you have more questions about pinatas, odds are that you’ll find your answers in the Pinata Madness FAQ.

The Pinata Madness sale will end on August 21 at 6 PM ET, which means you have about a week to get your lucky pinata. You can find all the deals – and all the pinatas – over at GOG.com.
