That's right, people! There is a brand new Trash Tornado on the horizon, and it's headed RIGHT TOWARD YOU! Brace yourself for impact and get ready to dig through the swirling morass of junk!

You'll navigate this mess via a slide deck (originally created in Powerpoint and converted to Articulate) where you click on objects of interest to discover the GAs. There are all kinds of super-fun chaos in here, and the tornado and its aftermath feature all sorts of unexpected characters, including (but not limited to): Deadpool, Putin, Trump, The Kool-Aid Guy, Elton John, goats, 'possums, Kanye West's disembodied head, Lisa Simpson, W., Harry Potter, UFOs, the Mad Maxmobile, and a bucket of KFC! If it looks out of place, be sure to click on it! The beginning will be obvious, but things get a bit...messy toward the end.

Everyone who has given at least something (level 1+) is welcome to pick through the trash. There are 86 GAs (164 keys) throughout the tornado for you to discover. Also, hidden among these bits are 12 additional GAs (so make that 176 keys) that are either above-average-quality bundled games or the ever-so-rare non-bundled games (5 of these)! Now you'll need to be level 3 to access these, but hey, that's still a pretty low bar, so no complaining if you don't qualify. You can make level 3 in 48 hours with a tiny amount of work. Give to live, baby, give to live. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Ok, enough proselytizing...go face the tornado and DIG THROUGH THE TRASH!

Good luck!

P.S. The tornado runs through October 16th in the evening (Central US time)


A thousand, thousand thank-yous to Dys, who spent personal time helping me get this into Articulate (because Dys has a subscription ๐Ÿ˜). Doing so did degrade the graphic quality from compression, but allowed us to present this in a way that prevents cheating via extracting all of the URLs (this happened during the first Junk Drawer Extravaganzaโ„ข). Also, please stick with Firefox or Chrome for this event...we've found issues with the Articulate client and links in Edge (which is too bad, because I really like Edge). Anyway, Dys probably spent a good hour or two of time helping convert, test, convert, test...and finally deploy this thing. So everyone send some love Dys' way, because it's well-deserved.

Do you just love to dig through the trash?

Yes!
YES!
Yaaaaaaassssssss!
No, I do not need your trash (but I will secretly dig through it anyway, so yes)
Potato (that I got from the trash, so yes)

๐ŸŒช PRO TIP: Ctrl-Click should keep them as tabs instead of new windows in Chrome.

Probably better than the HumbleBundle that just dropped.

Edit: Yep, it's better. But there's some Where's-Waldo-level digging required in the later stages. Good job on matching a lot of those pics with appropriate games (or viceversa ;)). ๐Ÿ‘

Yeah, I was not able to get quite as punny as I did with the Junk Drawer Extravaganzaโ„ข, but I was able to have a little fun with things here and there. :)

I don't know, Kentucky Route Zero, Phantom Brave, War for the Overworld... If you don't have any of the games, it's actually a pretty good bundle. Kentucky Route Zero and Phantom Brave are worth $10 on their own, and the other games are just bonus.

Yeah, I know this is of course very subjective. The mix of games is just not for me.
I own Tricky Towers, not interested in the 2 Anime titles. Osiris seems interesting, but is in EA for 2 years now and appears to be pretty much dead (going by the reviews). This leaves WftO + DLC and KRZ Season Pass which is pretty nice. Though KRZ (base game) has been bundled before for almost half the price (together with 7 other very good titles).
Objectively the price is very good if you're interested in the majority of the games.

I've heard that Osiris isn't dead (I heard there's an update planned for 2019), and Phantom Brave isn't anime - it's a strategy RPG, kind of like Disgaea or Final Fantasy Tactics.

But as you said, it really depends on what you already own. I already have KRZ, Phantom Brave, and War for the Overworld. But if I didn't, picking three games up for $10 would be great.

I know people love to crap on IGN, and on Humble Bundle since IGN bought them, but the pace of awesome bundles couldn't be sustained forever. It's just becoming more like other bundle sites, where the bundles are great if you don't have the games, and not so great if you already have a bulk of them.

After all the prep work and testing we did, the end part was pretty easy for me.
Grez did all the work, I just ran it through the software at the end. :D
