    This is difficult to answer as I think classes preferences are such a personal thing, given the amount of choice. You can respec throughout the game easily - including your class and subclass (but not race/background). You can also respec your party too. I just created my character as I would a DnD character - thinking broadly about their story, history and personality. I would pick whatever appeals to you intuitively, but check against any priorities you might have, such as high charisma for unlocking more dialogue options.

    Personally I found Paladin to be quite repetitive and overpowered. I liked the flexibility of the bard and I had the most fun with a Monk, because punching foes never got old.

    I'll have another crack at this one. Is 'Book of Night' the game 'Black Book'? I have 1/6 requests left, if it is 'Black Book' I'll claim it!

    As usual, thank you for the inventive and generous giveaway!

    Death's Gambit: Afterlife
    Forgive Me Father

    Thank you for your words and I share the appreciation you have for this community. I don't have the time to engage much on Tildes right now, but I am grateful to lurk in the periphery, reading things every day which often resonate with me. I've been quite depressed about the state of the world for a long time now, but I've made significant steps in how I manage that feeling. Meditation has been a big shifter for me over the past couple of years, but I have been taking long breaks. Next year I'm hoping to be more consistent with my practice and also branch out a bit and connect with a group.

    Thanks for the givewaway :)

    110 = The History of the Monoral Road (I'm stumped but this sounds mysterious)
    42 = Eratus: The Dead = Iratus Lord of the Dead
    51 = Guest House (which @aphoenix has already guessed as Summer House, which I think is a great guess)
    72 = Mars Nut Industrial Deluxe Edition = Mars Power Industries Deluxe

    More guesses that I'm not claiming:

    15 = Andreas Donos II = Andro Dunos II
    122 = Transform Hero Game Online = Hero Transform Race
    18 = Autonetus x Pyralebotus = Autonauts vs Piratebots
    16 = Appearance of Dahlias = Dahlia View
    22 = Book of Night = Night Book

    The link is working now, thanks. There are so many participating games and some of the achievements look so niche and potentially quite difficult.

    Interested in Monster's Den: Godfall. This game is already on my wishlist and it looks like quite an accessible dungeon-crawler. Thank you!

    Now to reply to the actual thread (thank you @fefellama)

    #2, because I've made friends with a blackbird and he's found where my window is where my gaming computer is located, and I can see him hopping around right now. He keeps taking my food offerings away to a secret location, potentially to his nest (it is breeding season here currently). So it has to be 2, because I'm hoping there is a pair of them. I'm not living in a house with cats, so birds have taken over my life a little!

    That's all I guess for now, might try again later tonight. Number 10 seems quite obvious! Got to be Bridge Constructor Portal? Not claiming though.

    I definitely had a Steam account back then, but I don't remember this. The link you posted is getting a 404 for me, however!

    Atom Zombie Smasher does look very unique. And it's got co-op too, does that work well?

    I can relate to that, I'm still writing my thesis and this holiday period will be very constrained. What a selfless and lovely gift though, to be able to delve into that temporary escapism!

    I'm definitely a patient gamer as well, unless it's a co-op game and my friends are encouraging me to buy it.

    Your entry is in, I'm keeping this giveaway open for another few days. I learned my lesson when I once did a giveaway where I timed it close to the end of the Steam sale. The giveaway thread was long inactive and everyone had to wait way too long to get their games XD

    I've never seen The Truman Show, but it's good to know the inspiration for this game, thanks for pointing that out.

    I wish I could help, I have a Christmas book from childhood that I used to be obsessed with but then it disappeared from the library and I didn't know the title or author. So I know the feeling! An advent game is such a sweet idea. It sounds unique enough that someone might remember it, if not on Tildes then on some internet community where flash games are discussed...

    I can't say I have ever played a tactical game like this with a friend, this is such a cool idea - thanks for sharing. I've played various games where you can vote on dialogue choices with a co-op party. Although some dialogue choices can indeed be suspenseful, it probably doesn't compare to when you're in an active combat scenario. Thanks again for the game.

    Wow, I really like the look of Constance, I just added it to my wishlist. DOH is already on my wishlist - it does look really unique. And wow that's awesome when friends on the internet pool together their collective resources!
