Tildes Game Giveaway Thread: Holiday 2021
Important: This will be a noisy thread. If you do not wish to see it in your feed, please use the "Ignore" feature to hide it!
It's been a while since we've done one of these, and with the next Steam sale right around the corner, now seems like the right time!
Gifters
Post your available games, the platform and method of delivery, rules for your giveaways (e.g. first-come first-serve, random draw, etc.), and any additional info or requirements. Feel free to get creative!
Giftees
Request giveaways according to the gifter's guidelines!
Rules
Anyone can choose to be a gifter, giftee, or both! Giveaway rules are set by individual gifters, but there are handful of guidelines everyone should follow:
- No grey market keys! Only giveaway games from reputable sources. If you're not sure what this means, please ask.
- Requests for games should be done in the thread, but if the gift is a key, those should be delivered by PMs only. Please don't post keys publicly, even obfuscated ones.
I tend to, er, overbuy game bundles which tends to leave me with a surplus of keys, any of which can be yours!
Giveaway rules: First come, first serve; limit two
Platform: Steam (delivered as keys)
Game List
Bolded Titles in the list are ones I've played and would personally recommend!
I've given out all requested keys AND I've also refreshed the game list with a few new giveaways! If you've already looked through it and found nothing of interest, maybe give it another gander?
I don't want any of these games right now but I wanted to recommend Hob. Play it, it's good! And someone should take the giveaway copy too.
I think you have more games that you haven't played, than I have ever played in my entire life.
And I am old.
If I try to load my full game list on my Steam profile, the application hangs, so... yeah.. that's an incredibly true statement.
I'd like Absolute Drift please. Thanks for putting this together!
I would very much like to get VVVVVV and Figment please
Not GP, but I've had a blast with VVVVVVV it's a fantastic non-jumping platformer and the music is a blast. Hope you enjoy it
Can I also have Iconoclasts? Thanks!
Hi! Um... Could I snag Heaven's Vault and Kind Words, if available? :)
198X please?
One railway empire please
I'd take Autonauts if it's as yet unclaimed. Thanks for putting this together, kfwyre!
I'd love to get Barony and House Flipper, if possible.
I'm interested in Hyper Light Drifter.
I'd be grateful to get Torchlight II if available! Currently enjoying the first one in an iGPU computer
I'd love to try Tacoma :)
Could I grab Yooka Laylee please?
Thank you so much for doing this! I'm interested in Turmoil if it's still available.
I'll take Oblivion, please. Thank you for your generosity.
I'd like to snag Clustertruck, please. I love plaforming games
Could I take a copy of Orwell: Keeping an Eye on You please?
Can I snag Barotrauma? Love co-op games so would like to give it a go!
Could I have Epistory - Typing Chronicles?
I would love to give reventure a shot!
Would love to have Golf it! and Mindustry if they're still available.
Is it possible if I could also get Fun With Ragdolls: The Game? Only if you are willing of course
Whoa, is that AVICII Invector?! If nobody else would like that, could I get that? I can't believe it's on Steam! Thank you :-)
I've already claimed one earlier, but after a few days no one seems to have jumped on Valfaris. It's a fun little heavy metal themed platformer which is a combo of my favorite things :) if no one else would like to claim it in the next few days I'd gladly take it.
Torchlight or Valfaris
i would love to play some surviving mars!
I would be very interested by GRIP ! This kind of game really look like a fast paced aggressive Mario Kart ! Thank you a lot for your kindness !
Alright, if no one else is taking them I can take Smile for Me and Going Under, which I don't own and look interesting.
I've got some Humble Bundle Keys sitting around. If any interest you just let me know and I'll PM you the key.
Random Humble Bundle Detritus
Bioshock RemasteredBury Me, My LoveHyperLight DrifterSUPERHOTThis War of Mine: Final CutThe Norwood SuiteHey! Is The Norwood Suite still available? Thanks!
Yep, sent you a PM.
I'd like to have HyperLight Drifter if it's available!
Sure, sent you a PM.
Could I get This War of Mine: Final Cut please? I'm a sucker for any game from 11 bit studios!
It does seem to be in a similar vein to the Beholder series which I love.
Fair warning, it's great, but fucking dark. Way darker than Beholder.
Absolutely, I sent you a PM. Sorry for the late reply, I was away from the computer for a few days.
Hey, is BioShock Remastered available? Been wanting to play that game for a long time
Yeah absolutely, sorry for the delay in responding, I was with family for the holidays.
I'd love Bury Me, My Love. Never heard of it until now and it looks interesting.
Sure, you got it!
Some games from humble bundles I'll surely never play:
Squad(for @sal)I'm interested in Squad!
Shout outs to @3_3_2_LA who reminded me we were overdue for a giveaway thread and who kindly donated two keys for the cause!
Here are their giveaways:
These keys are being given away on a first come, first served basis (limit one). Reply if you're interested!
I've heard good things about frostpunk and would like to give it a try.
IMO it's one of the best city/base/colony/misery sims out there, and my 100+ hours play time can attest to that. I can't wait for Frostpunk 2 to come out!
I'll echo cfabbro @bonooru, it's excellent.
Fantastic. I'm looking forward to giving it a try. Many thanks for the key @kfwyre!
Frostpunk was an amazing memorable experience for me. I hope you have fun!
I hope so too
I don't know if this would count as a proper giveaway, but I recently bought an additional Xbox controller and it came with a 14 day long Xbox Game Pass Ultimate trial code. I already subscribe to it, so I'd be happy to give it to someone who'd like to try it. (Hit me up if you want to play!)
Giveaway rules: First come, first serve.
Platforms: Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows 10
Code
QHCP6-3PCVF-6KQT4-D74PD-QRR4Z
If you redeem the code, please DM or reply me to let others know that it's no longer valid. Enjoy!
Edit: Taken.
I have an extra Battlefield 1 key I got from Amazon Prime. First come first serve.Origin Key
94U4-65T8-6UP2-UT8Z-DNCZ
I'd gratefully take No Time To Explain Remastered.
Can I have Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing?
This one has been sitting in my cart waiting for a sale for awhile, I'll happily take it off your hands.
Two Steam keys rusting away over here:
San Andreas would be great, I am sad I missed the deadline for buying the old games on steam.
So a friend of mine bought me the awesome and gorgeous Forza 5 controller which came with some exclusive DLC in the form of a "1932 Ford De Luxe Five-Window Coupé Forza Edition car, Color Pop shirt, and Color Pop emote" (scroll down about halfway to see the stuff) via a code on a card in the box. I've already beaten Forza 5 and didn't redeem the code.
So if you have Forza 5 and want the code, drop a comment and I'll send it to you.
Whoa, that is really reminiscent of Holi haha
Isn't it beautiful?!
It is! Is the rest of the controller actually translucent? That's even cooler if so!!!
Mostly. The front of the controller is a translucent yellow with the pink/blue/purple color splashes. The back is white except for the grippy black rubber on the handles and it has pink and blue triggers opposite the pink and blue joysticks.
Very colourful too! Looks absolutely gorgeous
I have some stuff from various Humble Bundles over the years. Most of them are from a horror bundle I got last year or so. All are for Steam keys.
The Blackout ClubDARQThe Darkness IISpec Ops: The LineHacknetJust reply here and I'll DM you the gift link!
Blackout Club, thank you very much!
Has piqued my interest, and having checked out the game seems to be exactly my style. Would love to play it
Hey, is the Darkness 2 still available?
A friend gifted it to me for PS3, but my Console broke before I could finish it.
I would love to have DARQ please.
I've got
Alan Wake FranchiseThey're in my steam inventory so I'll have to trade them to you
Don’t necessarily want one of these but can vouch for how terrific the Alan Wake franchise is, and Remedy’s most recent game Control won quite a few awards if I recall correctly.
Similarly, I can vouch for Legend of Grimrock. If anyone enjoys ooooooooooldschool, first-person, dungeon crawler, party-based CRPGs, where you had to map the grid-based dungeons out on graph paper as you played so you didn't get lost (e.g. Pool of Darkness, Bard's Tale, M&M6, Realms of Arkania, Wizardry, etc), it will be right up their alley. It's got plenty of modern QoL features (like auto-mapping) that make it less annoying to play, but still has that classic feel to it, and really great puzzles all throughout as well.
Also play the sequel Legend of Grimrock 2!
Oh gosh I would love to have Alan Wake Franchise, if you don't mind.
GOG is giving away I have no mouth and I must scream on their main page. A touch out of season, but the thought is appreciated. If you already have it, they will give you a redeemable code to gift too, respond if you want mine, or just go to the site.
X-Morph: Defense Complete Edition is GOG's new giveaway today.
Thanks for the info :)
Ok, here's some random stuff. One per user but you can request more than one, such that if multiple people want the same thing I'll try to make everyone happy.
Not all of these games will be good, so I'll bold the ones I think are good based on either my taste or what I've heard.
Gone!

It's rare I look through a Humble key list and see something I don't own, much less something I'm interested in playing!
Also these are some GREAT giveaways everyone! Lots of fantastic games here.
I'll give a special shoutout to Thomas Was Alone. It's a simple puzzle platformer, but it has a surprisingly well-executed narrative. Definitely worth getting -- as is, of course VVVVVV!
@Wolf requested Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP. I have one more key for this game if anyone else wants it.
I know this thread is a bit old (I don't use Tildes very often), but if you still have Broken Age, I always wanted to try that one. Either way, thanks!
Jackbox Party Pack 5 would be great, thank you so much.
I'd love Jackbox Party Pack 3 if it's still available.
Is Jackbox Party Pack 2 still up for grabs? Thanks!
Could I have Mini Metro?
I'd gladly try AC: Origins
Sorry... When I clicked the button to retrieve the key it sent me to uplay. Looks like they don't do keys (anymore?) It was from 2019 so likely their MO changed. You can choose something else if you like.
Oh, that's fine haha, in that case I'll take VVVVVV :D
I would love to get Thomas Was Alone please.
Ill take a wold of goo! I loved human resource machine and its sequel.
OK I have quite a few available if anyone wants any of these?!
As far as I know they are available - I'm sorry if these are gone when you try the key, but if you don't have these games, then they are well worth trying (especially Mark of the Ninja, Trine 2, and Fez)! I will update the table as-and-when anyone claims.I also have a download key for a "25 classic games" pack that came with a retro joystick I just got for xmas - WIN only.
Tower of GunsArmelloFeatherThe Adventure PalsLIMBOBastionAntichamberFezBastionDead Island GOTY & Saints Row the ThirdDuck GameMark of the NinjaSuper Meat Boy, Lone Survivor, and BraidStar Wars Knights of the Old RepublicMark of the Ninja and Duck Game, please and thank you.
On their way! Great choices; I really hope the Mark of the Ninja key is still valid, I am so sorry if it isn't. It's a really, really great game that I have bought on both original retail and "Remastered" forms, so I don't know why the key in my Humble account was already "revealed"; hopefully I haven't accidentally invalidated the key by redeeming it against my Steam account after having already bought the game at full retail price. Please let me know if it works? Thanks.
It didn't work but no worries!
can i get super meat boy and star wars knights of the old republic?
Sure thing! I think both of these keys are 100% guaranteed unused, but I'm really sorry if not. DM on its way.
Can I try Dead Island GOTY as well as SR: the third (if they're available) and Bastion too?
Yep! I will DM shortly. The Dead Island / SR key is the one that I think is most likely to have been redeemed already, but I am really not sure. I'm sorry if it disappoints - let me know if it works please?
I would love to get Antichamber, Fez and Bastion please, if they are available.
You've really gone for the jugular with those 3 choices! Great taste. Antichamber is an exceptional experience. Unfortunately /u/Spyder beat you to the "definitely not been redeemed" Bastion key, but I have a second key that may or may not have been redeemed; hopefully it will work for you. The other 2 games are games I purchased at retail, and AFAIK I have never redeemed the HB keys, but I am really sorry if they have been redeemed already. Please let me know whether they work for you? DM en route. Cheers!
I'd like Feather, please!
I see there is still one copy of The Adventure Pals on offer. I recommend this game for those of you who haven't played it, as well as Trine 2 (the best Trine! Best enjoyed with 2 friends.)
Sure thing - DM en route.
Id love to take tower of guns and armello!
OK! So far 0/5 of the "maybe" keys have worked, so I wouldn't be hopeful for Tower of Guns, but you might get lucky! DM en route.
Also if you didn’t know already, Epic Games have been doing a free game every day for the past week or so, might wanna go check those out.EDIT: Seems there's already a post regarding this, my bad.
