I own A Game of Dwarves, and there is a DLC giveaway that I saw and I wanted to enter. It tells me "Missing Base Game". I figured I just needed to sync my account, even though I have since I bought and downloaded the game. The sync does nothing for the giveaway. I looked on my list of games, and A Game of Dwarves doesn't even appear on my SG game list. What am I doing wrong?

Proof of owning

Appearently I need to say that I have played the game a bit, though it has been a few weeks, just been busy looking for jobs and playing stuff with my sis, and other FPS games that I got recently.

Ok. It's probably not an error on the steamgifts side. Maybe Steam Support can help?

Guessed it was something like that. That's the reason he can't enter sg giveaways anyway.

That makes no sense, especially if it doesn't give me the option to buy it for myself.

I have the same problem with Batman Arkham City, I own it and I can see it on my steam profile but I can't enter any DLC giveaways.

The problem is that you really do not have the game the DLC belongs to. I also have that game, but that is the paid version. The DLC you are trying to enter is for the free version of the game. All the DLC for the free version is included in the paid version. Don't worry about it.

No, I own the paid version, the DLC is for the paid version.

A Game of Dwarves is not Dwarves?!

It is easy to look at the name and figure it out.

Do you see A Game of Dwarves here? Well neither can SteamGifts and that is why it's not showing up here as well.

Usually once you've played the game it'll show up and be able to sync.

I have logged 10 hours on the game, which you would see on the image I posted.

So how about you tell me?

I didn't bother checking the picture as I'm well aware that it normally doesn't show up.

Unless there is something else preventing it, you normally require playtime within the past two weeks for it to sync.

Well, I have booted it, then synced, and still no luck.

Leave it on for a bit, then try to resync again. It might take a while for it to register.
I played for an additional 30 min or so, then had to sync like 4 times over the next hour to get it to show up.

I dunno why people are arguing about this. It is a well known bug. There have been plenty of other games it has happened with as well. It sucks, been that way a long time now, have no idea if it'll ever get fixed.

There's just a problem with this game (And some other). As some of the previous people stated, it is not shown in most of the game list. So when you sync your account, SG can't know that you own it.
Weirdly enough, some people are lucky and the game appears in their games list so they can enter in the giveaway. But they are really not a lot.
