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:
@Klanky@sopuli.xyz
@Dymonika@beehaw.org
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!

Probably would have to be RimWorld, people who love that game seem to really love it. Nearly pulled the trigger a couple of times.
I live rimworld, my wife is a massive sims fan and I bought rim world for her and she was hooked.
I was hooked for weeks but my brain gets hooked on things for a few weeks then it moves on to the next thing like a adhd riddled child
This 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.
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.
(Direct steam gift is more than fine)
Project Zomboid. Big zombie fan, but somehow never ended up with the game. However (given I’m old af) I still remember the day the dev announced his laptop or whatever with all the code for the game on it had been lost or stolen, back in its real early dev days. Amazing the game was ever able to come out, let alone I’ve never heard anyone say a bad thing about it.
And ty for the giveaway! <3
That game is one of my favorites. I have over a thousand hours in it. Good choice!
I’d go with Chants of Sennaar as a direct Steam or GOG gift. Granted, it’s not exactly patient gaming since it came out last year, but I found it had a charming and somehow retro vibe when I tried and enjoyed the demo, and it certainly is an original game concept. I suggest you try it yourself !
Thanks for organizing this giveaway !
I just checked and I already had that in my wishlist! Definitely looks cool
Physical steam.
I’ve been waiting on a lot of windows games I could never play, but I’m planning on getting a steam deck sometime soon.
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 thankyouCongratulations, keep up the good work!
Hey thanks for making the deadline so long, feels in tune with how Lemmy functions (In the off chance I win, roll the dice again)
Wouldn’t mind a direct game gift on steam! Been playing a few games my wife owns, mostly Power Wash Simulator, but would be good to be able to play when she’s using her library!
Aye, I’ve always seen these things and never have a chance… Maybe that changes today
Edit - didn’t realize I should mention a game. I’ve been eyeing fallout 4 for modding and it’s hecking cheap atm
That’s so awesome and kind!
Can I donate $60 bucks to double amount of winners? I don’t have have much time to game, but I thought this was such a kind way to help out the community that Id like to help out as well.
That would be really awesome of you!
After I’ve picked two winners, we can have you pick two more and you can send them the codes directly as well.
We can make it the giveaway part 2.
When we get to announcing winners I’ll message you!
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.
That’s really cool! I’m knee deep in BG3, but if I were to get something, it’d be ff9 on steam, haven’t played it in probably 20 years. See how it hits now as an adult.
