Hey everyone,
We’re coming up on a year anniversary (I think) of this community and I thought I’d do some giveaways to celebrate that.
It’s semi-annoying that not all game stores have digital gift cards you can purchase so there are a few options here.
- Amazon digital gift card: for those of you who buy physical games
- Physical Steam gift card: the slowest option, as it requires me to leave my house and buy a stamp and mail something (the horror).
- Gifted game directly in Steam / GOG.com
For the gifted games / gift cards it’ll be capped at $30 – after all, we’re talking about old games here right? If you want a few games that total up to $30, that’s cool too.
I’m going to pick two members at random from those who reply here as the winners.
Just comment with what option you prefer, and ideally tell us about what game you’d like to get (I’d prefer to limit the low-effort comments if we can. I like the discussions people have here so please do try to comment more than just “#1” ).
I’ll sticky this post and will leave it open for 2 weeks (end of April is the deadline)
Thanks for keeping this community a cool place with good discussions!
UPDATE 4/30/24:
This contest is officially over!
The 2 randomly chosen winnders are:

Congrats!
I will be messaging you both individually to get your email addresses or steam/gog usernames so I can gift you your games!
Thanks again to everyone again for keeping this place going!

I prefer digital steam.
I’d love to have a copy of Dwarf Fortress or The Talos Priciple 2
No idea what I’d buy, but I’ll go with an Amazon digital gift card if I win. Most probably I’ll use it towards tears of a Kingdom as I just finished breath of the wild about 1 week ago.
Thanks for doing this! I’d go with either Stray or Immortals Fenyx Rising for Steam. I’ve been hoping to try both of those out for a while now.
I’d really like to try Subnautica. I love survival games and my gf has been trying to get me to try it but I have never really gotten around it. Steam gift would be great. Thank you!
Subnautica took me a few goes to properly get into, but once I was in, oh boy was I in
It really helps to have good spawns for technology. If you don’t have decent ones on a first run through it can feel like you’re stuck in a rut pretty fast.
Once you know what you’re looking for, though, it makes life a lot easier.
It probably didn’t help that the first couple of tries were prerelease. Finally gave it a full play through a year or two ago
Physical game gift card. I don’t like the idea of digital ownership, especially with the garbage that some companies have been pulling with rescinding digital ownership.
I’ve been interested in The Surge or the sequel, or maybe DOOM Eternal.
Option 1. I am a console gamer and have been itching to play Pokemon Legends Arceus. Price hasn’t come down much… but that seems to be how Nintendo rolls.
I’d gonwoth steam. I’ve just changed my laptop to Linux because of all the MS crap and nagware. Likely due to other Lemmy communities. I have a steam account that is locked for years from changed security requirements. This might be the push to switch from console to PC gaming.
Congratulations, keep up the good work!
I don’t want any games just dropping in to say that this it’s nice your doing this for the community cheers.
Option 3 ! Steam does have a digital gift card option however, but i can see the appeal and compatibility of the first one. Thanks ! Actually my birthday, but i wouldn’t want to cheat the chances at winning that giveaway.
Apparently I hadn’t checked in a while, because Steam used to not have digital gifts, I swear! But Yay, I do see they offer gifting digital codes now.
Thanks for the info!
If I’m picked, I’d like Bug Fables, GOG version 😄 - This bad boy’s been sitting on my wishlist forever and looks like a truly lovely game.
I would ask for X4, but it only gets under 30 dollars when on sale, and only the base game. It has 4 expansions now, so I’ll probably buy the complete edition later this year. Besides, I still have to give Rebel Galaxy and other space games a first try. please don’t ask about the rest of my backlog
Foretales, I always enjoyed card games and the aesthetic really attracted me, actually it’s in my wishlist since the game was released and I managed to not get spoiled (or just a little bit).
I choose the direct gift in gog.
(2 day before the giveaway’s end, I guess I’m also a patient scroller)
Universe sandbox seems interesting enough for me to want to play but not quite enough for me to spend $30 on. This would be a perfect opportunity to finally give it a go.
Steam, please and thankyouThis is very nice of you to do, thanks. I might use it on Dream Quest (2014), which is little-known as the predecessor to Slay the Spire, so probably #3, but any way would probably do.
EDIT: Wow, thank you so much!!!
I can’t believe I won! Thank you!
🥳
