There is a way to add this game to your account in regions where this game is not available
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2815848240
translation from Russian
1) find any VPN
2) turn on the VPN and go to the Steam website (log in to your account)
3) we put any paid game in the Steam store cart
go to the shopping cart
on the right, above the game there will be an opportunity to switch the currency, switch it to the currency of the VPN region (this will not change the region of the account)
4) go to the giveaway page, pick up the game
go to the shopping cart and change the store's currency back, disabling VPN

Am I the only one who thinks 'I Don't Like Mondays'?

Maybe ask your government... 😬
A friend of mine somehow got the game on Steam even though it's banned in their country. What's funny is that even themselves aren't sure how exactly it worked. 😅

Well, tides are changing but I don't think it would be soon enough. But who knows.

That's interesting because it's usually not possible to activate a game in a country where it's banned even if you use a key. Your friend is lucky I guess. :)

Not even a key - from what I remember (was 2 years ago... sigh, 2022 is 2 years ago already??) claiming the game from the store page wouldn't work (shows that it's banned in the country), but the bundle worked, or something like that. 🤔

Hey! I just remembered (saw a message I sent last year) that while the game is restricted on Steam, it apparently isn't on Xbox. Well, that was last year, but should be the case this year too. If you're interested in playing the game, you could play it on PC and Xbox that way. :o

Nice try but nope :D

I guess they wouldn't mind if I pirate a free game lol

Oof. :/
Last try, someone on Reddit mentioned that the good old SteamDB > Install works. Did you try it already?
Edit: oh, wait. The link you sent is regional. Try using this one: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/store/tell-me-why-chapters-1-3/9NF83PRZK6K3/0010/9MVX2Z790F69
Don't change the country code, just stay logged in and redeem it there.

I haven't but tried now. It looks like they specifically requested this game to be banned from Valve. Honestly I don't know many games like this here. There are tons of hentai games roaming around, yet this game somehow drew attention.
Sadly it redirects to regional, same thing as Steam I guess. :/
I might try with a VPN but I don't like Microsoft anyway.

Oh. :/ Well, I tried...
Also yeah, I guess a game containing LGBT+ content being showcased every year, made by a well-known developer (Dontnod made the Life is Strange series), makes it an easy target in those countries. :/

Thank you for the efforts though <3
Eh, it's purely political. There are a lot of LGBT games on Steam that are doing fine here. Not that they don't know but they just don't care unless the games draw attention I think. Almost everything is uncensored too.
Some games are "lucky". :/

when the game was not available in my country, there was this method, and it worked:
In your browser, go to Steam via VPN, add ANY game to your cart.
Change the currency in the cart to another country (this option appears when the currency in the settings does not match the country in the IP address).
Go to the page with the Tell Me Why game and add it to your account.
Return to cart and change currency back
