Testing Region Lock

Closed
yugimax

Based on a previous conversations since this game is region-restricted and the price difference should not exceed +10% above the buyer's region,here could be potential issues when gifting to other countries.
So, based on: https://steamdb.info/app/2558930/
I have removed the following countries:
British Antarctic Territory (BQ)
British Indian Ocean Territory (IO)
British Virgin Islands (VG)
Ireland (IE)
United Kingdom (GB)
Poland (PL)
Swaziland (SZ)
Switzerland (CH)
no sure if EU also enter in this list so want to make sure have the right countries before make the GA and that's why need to ask for your help guys cuz all this of region lock still confuse for me, even think on make a steam account on each region so no have to deal with all this, but i know have multiples steam accounts is against the rules

Buy global keys instead or just gift to a small set of countries? I mean even if you only gifted to one country there are thousand of bots that will automatically join. It's not really something to worry about.

I think it's fine. According to SteamDB, only the UK, Poland, and Switzerland have more than 10% more expensive than your region (US).
Also, I think key for this game, if exists, isn't region locked.

i know have multiples steam accounts is against the rules

It's wrong. Only multiple SteamGifts accounts is against the rules.
Steam doesn't prevent you from creating multiple Steam accounts, even using the same email address.
