If we're talking about DRM as in a measure to prevent copying, or require online security check, or anything like that, then no GOG game has DRM. One of GOG's core policies is that all of their games are DRM free. However, some people have stretched the definition a little to include other stuff. For example, if an online multiplayer game requires GOG Galaxy to connect to its online servers, some people consider that to be DRM.

There are some posts on GOG's official forums where people try to list all the games that have "DRM" of any kind. So if you're interested, that's where you could look. But if you just want to have confidence that you'll be able to install and run the game in the future, then don't worry about it. No GOG game has anything that would prevent that.
