I'm sitting at $4,966.64 Real CV, which means that I'm reeeeally close to lvl 10! According to my calculations, I should reach it with the GAs in this thread, so let's celebrate! 🎈😀🎉
And what a better way to celebrate then by playing our wins and winning even more games! :D

This is how it's gonna work:

  • Reply to the OP saying that you wanna participate and don't forget to link you wins page or Blaeo list. Eg:
    https://www.steamgifts.com/user/XxXxX/giveaways/won - You may also set some rules, like: no multiplayer/EA games, shorter games only, positive-rated games only...
  • Pick 3 wins for the person above you to play, by replying to their post. (First person will pick for me!). Someone will pick for you as well. Don't worry. Please, do not skip this step. Please, try to pick games you'd like to play yourself! if there are no wins left, just pick from their normal backlog
  • Beat the games - only main story (play1 game to unlock T1, 2 for T2)
  • ????
  • Profitz!

T1 - TESO
T2 - Of Kings and Men + Cuphead

EDIT: I've decided to change the rules a little bit. It occured to me that 3 games in 1 month might be too difficult for some people. Therefore, instead of playing all 3 games to participate, all you gotta do now is pick 2 out of 3 to take part in the Cuphead GA!

If you don't wanna play with us, here's a GA, so you can, at least, still celebrate with us!
You have a month to play the games! (Gas end on 11/11) Game on!

Don't forget to reply to me when you're done or else you won't receive a link to the GA!

Ps: Don't forget that October is also a play a game you won on Steamgifts month!

STAR WARSâ„¢: Knights of the Old Republicâ„¢ - I can find a replacement, since it takes around 30 hours to complete the main story according to HowLongToBeat, but I heard that it's truly a great RPG, so I picked it anyway :P

Darksiders - it takes around 17,5 hours for the main story and I wanted to add some action to the list ;)

Nightmares from the Deep: The Cursed Heart - I played it lately and it has a great atmosphere to it, so I think you should give it a try. 3,5 hours for the main story.

Nihilumbra - there was an RPG, a HOG so let's finish with a platformer :) 2,5 hours for the main story.

It doesn't have to be you, but I'd appreciate someone picking three games for me.
I have only one unplayed SteamGifts win, so feel free to pick something from The rest of my games. It would be nice if it wasn't anything from my ABC Plan but it's not a requirement :)

BioShock Remastered
Dishonored
The Walking Dead

Those can't be left unplayed (though I haven't started The Walking Dead either x.x)!
I don't know if it's just playing or completing..because if the latter my picks are probably waaay too many hours (all of them each ~12h for mainstory alone) to to that... ;/

In that case change any of them to To the Moon...that's a must "play" (if you really can call it that) too but only about 4h :O

Thank you! Let me just make a chart for easier track-keeping :3

Game Progress Status
The Walking Dead Achievements completed
BioShock Remastered Achievements unfinished
Dishonored Achievements not started yet
To the Moon Achievements completed

If it turns out I won't manage to finish everything on time I'll probably change "Dishonored" for "To the Moon" as it looks like this one is the most time-consuming :)


A quick edit for EinAnderer on 11.11.2017 as I can't really reply in an already-closed thread:

Hey, I just came to thank you again for choosing those games :)

I first finished "The Walking Dead" and if you still haven't started it I highly recommend it. It has amazing atmosphere and the story is just great - it has many surprising plot twists and some choices are really rough.

Then I started "BioShock Remastered" and got quite hooked up on the plot but I turned out to be one of those unfortunate people who encounter bugs and glitches every few minutes and at some point I just gave up. I managed to get to around 1/4 of the main story and I don't really regret starting it. I may not know how it ends but at least when someone mentions "BioShock" in the conversation I can reply with someting more than "eeeee.... water? And those guys in diving suits?" ;)

Then I swapped "Dishonored" for "To the Moon" as 1) There wasn't that much time left on this challenge, 2) I really wanted to play it for quite some time now but somehow never could bring myself to start it, always saving it for later, and 3) Freebird Games is releasing second episode of the series; "Finding Paradise" in the span of next two months. I'm not sure if you played it or not, but it's just gorgeous. I loved "A Bird Story" and thought that it was the ultimate example of a good narrative, but "To the Moon" is just a masterpiece.

All in all these were great choices and I had loads of fun playing them (even "BioShock", despite the glitches) so thank you and I hope to see you in other similar events! ^>^

Right then. You're steam profile is private... so I can't see if you've played these already or not. You may need to make your profile public to be part of this game, I guess.

I think you should play these three:

SteamWorld Heist - because I also won it too and need to try it someday. You can let me know what I'm missing out on to encourage me to play it soon too.

Hospital Tycoon - I want to know if it's actually any good or just a poor effort at copying the classic Theme Hospital. Hope it'll be fun!

Shadows of War - simply because you won it in a small giveaway, with only 20 entrees. I'd like to think it was a game you wanted to play.

Bladestar - never heard of it before, give it a go! :-)

Played Shadow of War a couple of weeks ago already for ~2h and yeah I really wanted to play it. It looked nice, but in the end it's just a "spam your units to win" game coupled with bugs. :(

But the other two are already installed since I won them...just haven't gotten to them xD
Profile is public now (haven't thought about it that it's needed) so you could pick a replacement for 3rd (for a couple hours at least - or until you answered^^)

Edit: And you'll definitely get an update about how those two games are^^

SteamWorld Heist definitely deserves it's "Overwhelmingly Positive" rating...

It's a turn based strategic actiongame/shooter without permadeath like in XCOM.
It's soundtrack is really catchy and immersive and it's artstyle is pretty colorful.
The story is nothing really special, but it does it's job and got some jokes in it. (Also the collectible hats and their flavourtexts got nice/funny references to a lot of other stuff eg. mario bros).

You got a crew of up to 9 members (with 5? different classes) and have to choose 1-4 for each mission and a loadout of a weapon, 2 utility items and a fancy hat.
This coupled with randomly generated levels keeps it interesting and gives you a lot of options on how to do a mission.

I enjoyed the whole playthrough and had nothing really to complain about that dampened my mood ;)

Bladestar was a pretty decent and fun Shoot 'Em Up game, but with no special features that made it really stand out.

Hospital Tycoon on the other hand....

The different diseases are funny and well made, the building of the hospital itself is pretty cool too and the feature about different personalities and interaction between staffmembers is a nice idea.

The "story" of the game is pretty mediocre (why even have a story and not just more different hospitals with different startingconditions?) and the humour isn't that good either but I guess it's ok.

But it falls flat in the management part...because that really is a chore with the complicated menus, bad management of hiring/firing staff and sometimes stupid AI (where patients just won't go where they need to go - even with doctors in the required rooms - and then just die).
On top of this the hospital never actually feels crowded because I never had more than 20 patients in my hospital..which means in bigger hospitals there were always more employees than customers/patients oO

This really made me want to search for my CD and install Theme Hospital again :O

-EDIT- (accidentally did a bunch of spoiler tags)
So does anyone just suggest the games for anyone?

If so:

Blades of Time -9hrs
Call of Duty BO II Single Player -7hrs
Drakensang: The River of Time -32hrs

Since Drakensang is pretty long, If you don't want to do it then I would suggest:
Shadow of Mordor -16hrs
-OR-
Shadow of Mordor + Shadow Puppeteer -5hrs

Those are times based on HLTB so if you beat it in less time then that is OK obviously haha.

Hmmm, I could try but I'm not sure if I can beat (aka, 100%) 3 games in such a limited time frame. And when I look through my unplayed wins a lot of them seem to be multiplayer games that are even more time-consuming to beat... :/

I guess I'm gonna just link my wins page and give a list of the non-multiplayer-heavy wins I still have left so the next person doesn't need to check so many games. ^_^'

Games I haven't played (enough in some cases) yet:
DarkEnd
AR-K
I am Bread
Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
Beat Hazard
Two Worlds II
Ion Assault
Frozen Synapse
Hitman: Blood Money
Torchlight
Indie Gala 4 (aka, the stuff listed here)
Sanctum 1 and 2

Also stuff that I need to get back to and finish:
L.A. Noire
The Bard's Tale
Deus Ex: Human Revolution

Ouch.... there are a lot more stuff than I initially though. I really suck... T.T
