fartheststar: Just for fun I'd almost like to buy a few pinatas, but I have so many games on steam that I have a very high chance of getting a duplicate. I'd probably take a chance if I knew I'd get something not already in either of my gog or steam libraries. It is a cool promo though.
This was my dilemma as well... I decided to try my luck and purchase one and received a game I already have on steam (metro 2033). Ah well, I gave it a shot at least!
Oh man,I got a game - Imperium Galactica - that is cheaper than my pinata :/
Against my better judgment I bought 10 more...

Spellforce 2 - Anniversary Edition (I'm actually happy about this)
Little Big Adventure (Relentless: Twinsen's Adventure) (Bugger! Well, you can't win them all)
Shadowrun: Dragonfall - Director's Cut (Not bad I suppose; it does expand my RPG library)
Skyshines BEDLAM Deluxe Edition (*sigh*)
Time Commando (*sigh*)
Capitalism 2 (Three bad games in a row... please give me something good)
Her Story (I have been eyeing it, so that's something...)
Shadow Warrior (2013) (Bah! Have it on steam already)
Aliens vs Predator Classic 2000 (Have a CD copy of this already. Why!? Just one more...)
Republique (Hrmm...Well, I am interested in stealth type games... this does have mixed reviews though...)

So, out of a total of 15 games bought I got:
3 That I already own.
4 That I had varying levels of interest in.
3 That I am cautiously neutral about.
5 That I do not want and had/have absolutely no interest in.

Yep, this Pinata Party has been a bust for me (no pun intended). I knew better though and went against my better judgment.
I'm on a Mac, so will the pinatas I buy be filled only with Mac-compatible games, or are Mac users not really invited to this party.
Tried two and got:

Metro: Last Light Redux
The Signal From Tölva

Not really games that interest me. My laptop also apparently doesn't meet the minimum system requirements for Tölva, so it will sit in my library until I get a new system.

It's completely random except that you should not get games that you already have here. I mainly use Linux now and both games i got are Windows-only.

Thanks for the info.

kbnrylaec: I bought 11 Piñata and only get 4 new games.
7 of 11 are games that I already have, and 3 of 7 redeem codes are "SpellForce Platinum".

I am sure there are over 11 games in this thread that I do not have yet.
I have reported this issue via GOG Support: Ticket #114883.

UPDATE:
Issue closed.
GOG refunded me $21 and recollect those useless redeem codes.
So... are the Pinatas weighted? Not sure if it is a reporting bias, but some games seem to come up a lot?
What I got out of 20 Pinata's:
Repeats/games I own:
Tyranny – Commander Edition
Pillars of Eternity: Hero Edition
Heroes of Might & Magic 3: Complete
Skyshines BEDLAM Deluxe Edition

New games to my catalog:
Pinstripe
Full Throttle Remastered
The Signal of Tolva
Memoranda
The Walking Dead: Michonne – A Telltale Miniseries
Thimbleweed Park
Everything
The Sexy Brutale
Serious Sam’s Bogus Detour
Shadow Warrior 2
Expeditions: Viking
Scanner Sombre
STRAFE
Batman: The Telltale Series
Owlboy
RiME

If anyone wants to trade any of the duplicates I have, when I actually get my codes, I would take Everspace, Superhot, a second copy of Shadow Warrior 2 (for a friend)), or No Mans Sky, if it actually is in this 100 game pinata list.

No, it doesn't take your OS into account at all. You may get a game for Mac or one for Windows.

Thanks for putting this all together for us!
I'm tempted by the pinatas, but the chances of getting good games for me is low.
I'm interested in ~20 games over the ~70 available..

Onsdag: Her Story (I have been eyeing it, so that's something...)
fwiw, I thought Her Story was a very good game, one of the more memorable I've played. It's shortish, but it's just a cool, more experimental approach to a concept.
second time i get like 50% duplicates while buying a "bigger" batch at once (10 codes) despite not owning that much games of the entire selection. Seems like current baskets are kinda small so if you don't want to get to a refund hassle you should buy 1 by 1 .
Bought 10 at the same time, got 2 new games and 8 duplicates, while there are on the list some things I would like, but looks like the pool is now full of: Shadowrun Returns, Guild 2 Renaissance, Saints Row: Gat out of Hell (got several duplicates of these). Meh :/

At least I hope they will refund it smoothly, as this is very irritating and costing me lot of time at the moment when I already should have been elsewhere, grrr...
