Second verse, same as the first. Well, almost.

Last month we had a challenge about playing and finishing a game won on Steamgifts. Over 100 users participated and over 70 finished at least one game each.

Let's do the same thing, but change it up a bit.


Rules for this month's challenge:

  1. It must be a won game with achievements
  2. You can't have any achievements gained in the game previously
  3. Just like last month it must be a game that can be "finished" / "beaten". Games with a story mode, or even a simple puzzle game with a finite set of levels. The goal for the month is to play and finish this game. No need for any certain achievement percentage, just to finish the game.

We're doing it the same way as last month. Reply to the application post, and link to your achievement progress in the game (you can find your achievement link by visiting your steam profile, clicking "games", searching for the game you plan to play, and then press "view stats" and click the achievements in the menu - check this screenshot - just copy the link to the URL you get from there - it will look like this: http://steamcommunity.com/id/USERNAME/stats/NNNNNN/?tab=achievements).

When you're done with the game, you can edit your post and add a hard to miss "FINISHED!" or similar so I'll spot it easier when I do the end of the month count-up :D

Only one game is needed for the challenge, but for all of you who play more games, I'll do a top 10 list of those who finished the most won achievement games during the month. It's not a competition, we're all in it to have fun (hopefully)!


Some tools to help selecting games:

If you have limited time and want to know how much time you would expect to spend with a game before finishing it (to know if it's doable in one month) I recommend checking How Long To Beat.

If you can't remember which of your won games you have played and which you still have to finish, a good tool to use is this script by kelnage. Since it also lists achievement progress it's extra easy spotting those won games that have achievements where you don't have any yet (check for 0% after the game name when the script has updated your won page).


Here's a a bonus from Wolfedood, to all of you who participated in last month's challenge:
Hard West, no level requirement
Also a message: ""There were a lot of people that signed up last month so it's quite possible we missed a few. If you participated in January's challenge and completed at least one SG win but don't have access to the giveaway please reply here with a link to your post in that thread and if the game had achievements also provide the link to yours or if it didn't have then some proof of completion like a screenshot far into the game in your steam profile etc. Once you do you'll be granted access to the giveaway"


Let's see if we can beat last month by having more than 74 users finishing won games. Unplayed achievement games means it could be a bit harder.

Remember, reply to the first post to be part of the challenge! Feel free to use the rest of the thread for discussion/suggestions about games to play.

I played and finished most of the games I won, but I started with one of the few I haven't finished today and I may even finish a second one if I find the time to do so :D

I've seen the January post but didn't have time to participate. However, this month I've already beaten Sniper Elite (I'll count it as my January sg win beaten game) and will try to beat one with achievements when I finish my exams (since I already played the blaeo monthly theme games I could for this month). If I manage to have time, I'll reply to the first comment. If I don't, just have my bump and incentive to continue :)

Playing warhamer vermintide. Since is a multiplayer game like L4D2 I don't think I can finish it. In fact, i spend a lot of time looking for players. I'm thinkin the game is not very populated. Still having fun with it.

I've been lucky too and won Lords of the Fallen. It feels really slow and "robotic", even more than Dark Souls. I really like darksoulesque games and this was a wishlisted, I'll play it, but... I feel a little bit dissapointed with the "playability".

I've almost finished Lords of the fallen. Playing as a warrior, i'm in the finish race of the game. I don't know if I'll play as a cleric or a rogue, because the game is somehow dissapointing, so maybe i'll wait for the replayability. At least, as a warrior, i'm enjoying it after a bad start (I was playing too "fast" and ended up suffering on the halfway of the game)
