Hello beautiful people,

I got a copy of This War of Mine I would like to give away. I think this is a very special game; I gave it away once before and the winner never touched it to this day, which really is a big shame - I was thinking back then I would gift some amazing crazy game everybody would start playing right away - so it was and is pretty disappointing to see it rot as +1 in someone's library. This time I would like to see it go to someone who really appreciates and values it.
To avoid wasting just another copy of this wonderful game right here I have some strings attached:

In order to get an invitation link from me to a private giveaway for This War of Mine you should have

  • this game wishlisted since before 1st of April 2016
  • less than 700 games on your account
  • less than 150 games won
  • less than 100 games on your wishlist
  • at least given 0.75 of what you've won in numbers
  • at least given 0.5 of what you've won real CV wise
  • activated all won games
  • not won the same game multiple times

If you fit the criteria and you really really want This War of Mine please post in this giveaway with a link to your wishlist: http://www.sgtools.info/giveaways/ae330836-0875-11e6-a85e-04019cc0dc01
If you meet all the criteria I'll add you and give you the link to a private giveaway for This War of Mine.
I might be lenient with my criteria if you convince me how badly you want to play this game ;)

Taking applications for a week from now on (ends 29th of April), the giveaway for TWoM will last a few days longer, so I'm not missing anybody :)

Take care all ♥

Amazing game, it gave me lots of feels and it really does have an impact many other games don't. Great choice.

Aw, thank you! I do really really want to play it actually. I think this game looks really interesting, the main reason is of course the main advertisement 'war seen from an entirely new angle'. Not that I have played much war games where you kill enemies without needing some kind of explanation of why they 'should be killed' (I think Team Fortress 2 comes closest...) but still. The experience seems really worth it. Plus I like survival games and I've been told that TWoM is the best one out there.
I'll leave a comment on the GA for Pre-Civilization Marble Age!

I meet all the requirements O: Except the wishlist, because I've won it already, and it's one of the few wins I started playing immediately. It's a wonderful, wonderful game, very depressing and impactful. Definitely a waste if it's just a +1. Just checked and found out I've given This War of Mine away 4 times. O: Out of these, 2 have played for a while (didn't survive the war), 1 seems like it's idled, and 1 untouched. Better than I expected, I guess. But who am I to judge? I'm one of those terrible people who haven't played a lot of my wins. ;_;

Btw, I was just thinking of doing something similar for TWD S2 :D But haven't got the requirements all thought out yet.

Ah, that reminds me, 400 Days DLC is still available if you want it eeev (:

Thanks for your kind words, lmxn. I bought it for myself a few months ago and also started playing it right away. It's very dark and depressing, I still have to find the courage to try again with a new badge of survivors, as my first team died pretty quickly ;___;
I also haven't played all of my wins yet! - and I feel bad about it - but for some reason I think TWoM is something special. I can't even quite put my finger on it why, it just feels that way.

I'd love to, been trying to win it, but no luck so far. I sent you an invite on Steam ♥♥♥

Yet is the important word here. :P I fully intend to play all my wins eventually too, but life and stuff gets in the way.
Yeah, it's not the kind of game that you can play whenever you want... I barely made it through on my second try, if the war was a few days longer my group would have died...

Accepted, catch you online soon (:

It's strange you make this kind of thread, given you haven't played a lot of great games you have won yourself.

While that is true I have also given a ton of great games where I'm not (most of the times) particularly picky if the winner plays them somewhere in the near future if ever.
This War of Mine has a special place for me though. I thought I made that clear in the OP.

As for requirements, I don't think they make much sense - I've seen lots of people with more games who play through most the their library and lots of people with fewer games that have most of them untouched. Wishlist - some people use it, some don't; some add just the games they plan to get/buy in the near future, some add every game that might be of interest just so they not forget it and it's easier to notice a great deal.
Well you only said you " think this is a very special game", but didn't specify why, so it's not really clear why is it more special than other games.
But since you went on to make such detailed requirements I'll assume it means something to you.
First, think about the game, why it's so special to you and how disappointed it makes you that the person who won the game hasn't played it, when it could have gone to someone who would spend hours in-game and enjoy it.
Second step - look at all the games you have won and never played or barely touched.
Now, cross out the word "you" from the first step. Think about how many special games you other people were denied and those games ended up on account of someone who don't care about them.
In no way I'm telling you how to do giveaways or what giveaways to enter - it's completely your choice. But I hope you will think about it. Thanks for your contributions!

I honestly don't understand your point.

I want this game to go to someone who wants it, who maybe has waited a long time to get it, and who appreciates it. Is all.

it's the same criteria for me ! I'm more using my whislist as a memo of "must play", but i guess it's not okay for some people...

Unfornately I don't mind the requirements. Still saying thank you. I like the idea of this. This way you can be sure the person who'll get it will appreciate it.

Would love this game, seen a friend play it months ago and thought it was awesome.
I meet all your criteria except it's not on my wishlist :(

Hope the winner enjoys it as much as the game deserves!

If it wasn't for the fact you said you wouldn't have played it anyways you would have totally convinced me ;)

I was at peace with myself already when I realised that I don't qualify because the winner has to play the game right away, but I wanted to see if I fit in the rules. :P not to enter the giveaway, I am just a very curious person
Sadly I really have a lot of things going on right now and I only finish one or two games per month; but awesome of you for doing this, and have another bump!

I'm not here to convince you to let me join, but since that one time we talked it did seem like we have a similar taste in games. I noticed this game before when everyone was giving it away from the bundle (never joined any of those GAs), but it didn't seem that interesting from what I saw on the steam page. So my questions are, did you really like it that much (would you say it is one of your favorite games)? And what is the main focus of the gameplay? Dialogue, combat, exploration? That wasn't completely clear to me from viewing the Steam page. I'd appreciate the feedback, so I might keep an eye out for it in the future.

It's a survival game blending resource management and exploration.

Thank you for your reply. Survival doesn't really tell me much but the other two things help. I guess it's kind of like a 2D version of The Last of Us? Just more grim.

More grim than The Last of Us?
Hmmm...

Well I've only read about it, never played it but the general opinion seems that it's quite depressing and grim and shows the bad side of war. While The Last of Us was somewhat grim, I don't feel like it was that bad.
