What is your giveaway white whale? The games you always immediately jump on for a chance to win and never do.

Mine are frog detective and creepy games (I won the first one and 100% it so now I’m just trying to get the last few), I love the idea of those games. I also find I’m curious as to what others are also going for that may not be the most wish listed game or etc. :)

Do you only enter wish listed games?

View Results
Yes, why go for games that I’m not sure I’m going to play
No, sometimes a game will intrigue me and I’ll enter for the fun of it
No, I don’t enter giveaways at all, I just like being social

Bad Rats
I've entered as a joke for this game soo many times, and yet have somehow avoided winning a copy XD

Mine is Clash: Artifacts of Chaos.
I entered so many low entry giveaways for that one lately and didn't win it. It looks so strangeweird and special...

You haven't even played the first two Zeno Clash games even though you own them. So if you want strangeweird and special, you can have that at anytime :)

The Zeno Clash games use Source engine, like Half Life 2. They aged incredibly well, I think mainly because of that (source is an excellent, and remarkably stable engine). They are still worth playing, because they have an incredibly weird and bizarre, but strangely coherent world. I personally liked the second a lot better because by that time I got used to the "mythos" and words of the world.

I've never won anything from my Wishlist so, ... it would seem better to jump on less popular giveaways. Upside is I have discovered a few gems (batting 50/50). I do try to play all my wins relatively quickly otherwise I'd never discover those gems. Though that's on pause while I attempt the "finish a win in June event" which I'm not going succeed at (noob alert, I chose death stranding, I've got 50 hours to go).

Funnily i'm trying to win "Hero of the Kingdom: The Lost Tales 3", thinking "oh this one must be playable and finishable lol"
I say funnily cause i finished the 1 and 2 and they were far from being the most exciting games, but let's just say they would have been an easy victory (i mean easily finishable) on Backlog Assassins ! XD

I bought it on Switch when they still did stupid low sales, and we've gotten a lot of play. It's tricky in places, but the weird power ups make it fun to retry.

I don't know, I'd understand the question as a game I entered for a lot of times, but still couldn't win it (it would be stupid to to say a game I've seen once or twice, Moby Dick as the titular white whale is a nemesis-like recurring element for Ahab)

I don't think I have anything that really counts, only a few games with sub-dozen GAs I entered, because they were in more expensive BYOBs, not proper ones. (Root, Everdell)

Thank you for the thought, I just forgot that in the haze of some family drama and workplace drama I caved in and bought two copies from the grey market to play it with my GF (before we're opting in to buy a much more expensive physical version. I try to be a bit more responsible with money, and plan ahead wherever we can)

Dishonored 2. Seems like a bunch of giveaways crop up once in a while that always get a moderate amount of entries. Just enough I haven't won it yet.

I keep hoping for Battle Chef Brigade, but it wasn't super bundled, so I've been keeping an eye on sales. But there's also a lot to play...

but it's super fucking good! I forget about it every now and then, but it's one of the games where I'd be really stoked about having a sequel, and more to play!

Good to know! I might splurge, or grab it as a present for myself some holiday.

For me would be Stellar Blade (but let's be honest, how many giveaways of that are around XD?) or Space Marine 2, but most probably I'll end buying them for the right price (reported to my wallet ofcourse). I know the games are kinda new, but besides those, some of my wishlisted games get my attention always.
Well, in meantime, playing some won games, some friend/secret santa gifts and trying to complete some of my already started games.

Dungeons & little kitty I bought via bundle and glad I did. Little kitty big city is just a bunch of fun and silly hat collecting but has very little replayability. 😭

Dungeons is a lot of fun and the story is really good. It’s kinda ham fisted but I’ve nearly completed it when I lost steam on it. Fun customization options too.

My giveaway white whales are 0CV fanatical mystery trash. I will continue to throw my points at them and continue not winning.

Other white whales are unbundled games.

I only enter wishlisted giveaways and random AAA games I'd be willing to try. Often whitelist giveaways introduce me to new games to wishlist.
So I don't really have a "white whale", I only regret not getting the Humble Choice that had Coral Island. Not an expensive game, I'm just cheap.

I’ll de-influence you and say I didn’t like Coral Island. I played like a day in it and was so bored I never picked it up again. 😔

Haha, am I you? Mine were Frog Detective and Creepy games too, if by creepy you mean "Creepy Tale" series and not just creepy the genre.
Lucky me finally won the two Frog Detectives, but no dice yet for Creepy Tales.

But these days it's probably Venba! Looks so colourful and wholesome.
