DeadFishEye: Does the stars count to unlock the "prizes" (Hard West and Master of Orion)?
Yes they do.

Your post remind me I have unlocked Hard West. Got to find out what kind of game it is though, my reason for spending wasn't Hard West, it's just accidental for me.

zeffyr: I got from 3 stars so far:

Sunless Sea (yay!)
Jack Keane (meh, although I own Jack Keane 2, maybe it's good time to start the series now)
Overclocked: A History of Violence (yay/meh, we'll see)
As we know, Jack keane will take its time .... but eventually will end up in everyone's library.

My code for Hard West said you must redeem code by Jan 10 so better be quick ;)

Tahira: Echoes of the Astral Empire
Empires: Dawn of the Modern World
The Coma: Recut
La-Mulana
Gone Home
Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak

I wasn't expecting much (having experienced the Pinatas earlier), and of course I didn't get any of the games I was hoping for, but it seems I got some pretty decent games nonetheless. Never heard of Tahira, but it looks a lot like Banner Saga so I'm sure I'll be happy with it, even though the reviews are mixed. Empires looks good and has high reviews. Horror isn't my thing, but the Coma actually looks like it might be somewhat interesting, so I'll probably give it a shot at some point when my backlog wears thin. La-Mulana looks pretty interesting and has good reviews. I'm kinda mixed on first person mystery/puzzle games - sometimes they're good, sometimes not so much - and the reviews for Gone Home are horribly mixed as well... not sure how I feel about it, but I'll probably keep it and give it a shot. And as for Homeworld, I can appreciate RTS games and this looks like a good series to jump into so sure, why not.

That's a pretty good haul ;)

I'm sure Empires (back in the day) had some new (at the time) copy protection which prevented some people from playing or maybe it was specs (like only Windows xx)?? Anyway did not know it was even on GOG so that's really nice

manatsawin: I got Enemy Engaged: Comanche vs Hokum
Google search EECH Allmods and download it. Makes the game much better. This is a game that falls slightly lower than Jane's in terms of sim realism but certainly way higher than arcade flyers like Gunship on the arcade to sim spectrum.
Enemy Engaged also scans your main game folder to see if you also own Apache vs Havoc, the first game, and imports all that game's helicopters and missions.
The game I got for my star was Dark Reign + Expansion.
No idea if it was worth it.

i should have known better as i got trash during the pinata sale as well, hard west and master of orion are not really the type of game i play.

though it looks a few people missed out on the free copy of jotun in july
It doesn't matter if they are in your library, you can still ask the support to create gift codes for ya if you wish to trade or gift them (if you didn't download the games that is).

Ha! Thank you for that info. I was just asking support about purchasing games as gifts so I can create giveaway if I don't want the game. This is very helpful thank you again;)
