The Fourth Annual PC Gaming Giveaway! (CLOSED) · 5:05am May 20th, 2018
Remember that time, back in 2015, when I decided to give other people gifts on my birthday? Good times, right? Right. Many games were given away, and I’m sure many hours of enjoyment were had by all who received them. If I’m wrong, don’t spoil my delusion. Just nod dumbly and keep reading.
Two more years rolled by, and two more giveaways helped prune my list of extra keys. Yet here we are again: another birthday and a freshly repopulated list of PC games that need to find good homes. As usual, it is just PC games. If you don’t play games on PC, you can “nope” your way out now.
Oh, and since I’m breaking my lengthy silence anyway, I might as well say that I’m actually writing again. Maybe something will actually get published in the near future. Maybe.
Rule #1: This giveaway will persist through the end of May and operates on a first come, first served basis. Requests must be made in the comments of this post, and they will be fulfilled in the order of their posting. Entries will be marked off the list as I send the keys out, but you should still check to make sure someone didn’t request the game you want since the last time I looked.
Rule #2: One game per person. Please don’t try to use alts to get more stuff. I reserve the right, however, to give away multiple, related products to a single person if I feel it’s appropriate.
Rule #3: Only people who are already following me at the time of this posting are eligible to make requests until 12:00am CDT on May 21. After that, anyone may make a request, whether they're following me or not, so feel free to point your friends this way. All requests which do not meet these conditions will be DELETED. (If you have any appreciation for pro wrestling, read that last line in Matt Hardy’s voice.)
Rule #4: All games are redeemable through Steam unless otherwise noted. In most cases, I'll send your key via PM.
Rule #5: On May 31, until midnight CDT, anyone who has previously received a game may request another.
Rule #6: In the unlikely event that one of the keys listed below is invalid, you can pick something else.
Rule #7: Dozens of items have been omitted from the list because no one has ever shown an interest in them before. If you’d like a specific title (especially a lesser-known, indie game) that isn’t on the list, you can ask if I have it. If I do, it’s yours.
The giveaway has ended. Come back next year!
Thank you very much for this.
May I request Verdun.
Hi! May I request Killing Floor 2?

You betcha! Check your PM boxes in a minute.
4864827
Thanks!
4864830
Thanks a lot!
Rise of the Tomb Raider, please.
Happy birthday!
4864834
Thanks! Figured that one would get snapped up quick. Nice catch.
Many happy returns
It’s great to hear that you are indeed still kicking, ponying, and resuming writing to boot.
Happy Birthday, ya goof
Xenonauts seems dope.
4864872
Thanks! And yes, it does seem dope, if that's your thing. That your pick?
4864859
Much obliged!
4864875
Ye
I somehow missed the bit where you said you were writing again. Huzzah!
4864878
No surprise. I kinda buried it in there. It's easy to overlook. Key incoming!
The Sexy Brutale please and thank you Prak!
Happy birthday, dude!
Stardew Valley, please.
Happy birthday! :D
Maaan, I tried running the Freedom Force demo once and it's like, not compatible with my computer or something. D: I was saaaad.
Moon Hunters is a great game, though.
That's a long and generous giveaway. Reverse birthday does sound fun though.
Now what was I?.... Oh yeah, requesting The witness please.
I'll grab War for the Overworld.
I'll take H1Z1. Thanks!
Happy Birthday!
Since I've probably read half of the FiMFic stories based on it by now, I think it's time I finally played 80 Days for myself. Thankee!
You have a happy Birthday.
Shadowrun: Dragonfall - Director's Cut plaese
4864915
You betcha!
4864923
Thanks! Key on its way!
4864973
Thanks, man. You gotta be clear, though. Are you asking for Moon Hunters, or are you just commenting on it?
4864979
Yep, it's a lot of fun, imo. I got the idea from Tolkien's description of hobbit birthdays. Game incoming!
4864981
It'll be there in just a minute!
4865018
You're very welcome. Hope you enjoy it.
4865036
Thanks! I've always heard 80 Days is good, but I have yet to try it. I actually have two keys, but I'm saving one, just in case.
4865039
Thanks! Your game is en route!
4865107
Just commenting, I got it from a friend a while ago.
Though hey, if you know anyone who wants Killing Floor, send 'em my way, I've got a couple guest passes for some damn reason <.<
I didn't take advantage of your generosity in previous years, but at this point I could very much use something new to play. I've heard good things about Clustertruck, and it seems like my kind of game, so I'll take that one, please.
4865133
I'm happy to provide! One key, coming right up!
I'd like to get that copy of Spec Ops: The Line.
4865161
You bet, bro.
Awesome to hear that you're writing again, man. I'm not a huge gamer, but Stellaris looks interesting if you still have it.
4865514
Yep, it's still there. Heading your way!
Ah may I request 'Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation' please
4865522
Thanks, dude. Happy birthday!
4865535
Indeed you may. Incoming!
4865590
Thank you! Also, Happy Birthday!
Please note that the giveaway is now open for anyone to make requests. Feel free to point your friends this way.
Happy Birthday. My goodness that's a lot of games. I've heard interesting things about Gun of Icarus. If Alliance has an offline mode, I'd like to request that one.
4865854
It's strictly team-based. You can't play it solo, as far as I know. If that's an issue, I'd recommend picking something different.
4865860
Ah, in that case, could I have contraption maker? That looks cool.
4865872
Absolutely. Coming right up!
I would like Armello please!
Wowoe zowie! That's a loooong list!
I wanted to ask if you could spare
The Legend of Heroesnothing! Nevermind!friend linked me and it's a day after your "og followers first" rule. Sorry for being a mooch T_T
Also happy birthday! Funny that your giving gifts instead of getting them :p
4867102
You betcha!
4867108
I took the idea from Tolkien.
Anyway, don't think of it as mooching. Think of it as helping me to clear out a backlog of excess keys!
Your key is on its way! And don't forget to come back on the 31st to lay claim to another!
4867117
Wow, that is surprisingly specific!
Also thank you again! :)
Wife let me know about this. May I request BlazBlue: Chronophantasma Extend?
4868246
Absolutely!
Could I have Steamworld Heist?
And I actually got Steamworld Dig from you and had great fun playing it, thank you. One of the few games I've actually completed all the way through in years actually, despite having a Humble library far too large myself :)
4869424
I'm happy to oblige!
May I have Civilization VI, please?
4872806
Indeed you may!
4872837
Thank you!
4872926
You're very welcome.
