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. 😉

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 😁). 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 Extravaganza™). 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.

Moony!!! Glad to see you in here. Glad you're having fun...and I hear you about the glasses. Had perfect vision my whole life and then about 3 years back...wham! Farsighted. At least I don't need 'em to drive...distance vision is perfect. But holy crap, I can't read the menu at the restaurant any more. lolz

Still not finished completely but that's a great amount of effort from you Grez, thanks a lot for positive emotions and for the great games hidden there!
Sharknado, that was hilarious (((=

Special thanks and rainbow rays to Dys who helped make it easy to play and hard to hijack URLs (;

Don't thank me. Grez overruled my plan to make finding things really hard. :P

In that case my efforts to find gibs at not obvious places would not fall in vain (=

PS: I love hidden objects games and played em a lot so won't be an issue at all

You guys both did a great job! IMO, it's probably the most exciting method on SG for invite-only giveaways. Cheers!

That was pretty cool. I wasn't expecting a hidden object game. Nothing for me in there, but seriously well done!

Not even the extras? You didn't want any of the non-bundle games? Nothing AAA, but a couple of them are especially fun.

You're welcome, in any case. Hope it was fun regardless. 🤓

Not any of the ones I found. It's possible I might have missed one... but I didn't think so.

But it's okay, I'm pretty picky with what I enter, and it was fun regardless. I was really impressed with how you carried off the theme. I'm still debating Open Sorcery... Going through the demo for it now.
