Trusted Mass Giveaway Websites

[Igor Dot Ninja]

This topic is still under development, it may take a few days for me to double check everything :P

This is a list of trustworthy websites that are making big giveaways (where everyone can get a game) With some more details about those websites and giveaways they make. Suggested by Denragon

HumbleBundle (Game Store and Bundle Site)
https://humblebundle.com
Why: They are usually giving games to promote a sale.
Frequency: Once every 2 months they give some game, sometimes a few in a row (usually during their sales)
Duration: Giveaways last 1-3days (usually 2)
Quality of games: Mostly Good Games

Indiegala (Game Store and Bundle Site)
https://indiegala.com
Why: Giving games to promote some bundle or a sale
Frequency: They are making giveaways often, once a week, sometimes more sometimes less
Duration: Giveaways last from a few hours to a few days (until the supply of keys runs out)
Quality of games: Frequent low quality games, with some good games.

Alienware Arena (Community Website, News, giveaways, Alienware company)
https://alienwarearena.com
Why: They are promoting the website, and also alienware hardware
Frequency: They give a lot of game items weekly, but game giveaways are rare, maybe once a month
Duration: Giveaways last until the keys run out, there is a number representing
Quality of games: Mixed, but a lot of good games came from that website
Note: site crashes on quality game giveaways, also there is a Point/Level System, if you want to grab really good games, you need to be higher level (leveling up is free, just use their website, post on the forums, upload screenshots...)

Fanatical (Game Store and Bundles, Old BundleStars)
https://fanatical.com
Why: They are giving games to promote deals/bundles
Frequency: Once in a few months, sometimes with coopration with some other website
Duration: Giveaways are limited by a number of keys, for example 50000 keys
Quality of games: Mid range, Some are good
Note; The website is mostly using gleam to make giveaways, read the bottom to understand whats gleam

GOG (DRM Free Game Store)
https://gog.com
Why: They are giving games to promote game deals
Frequncy: once in a few months, sometimes more frequently
Duration: Giveaways usually last for 2 days
Quality of games: Mid, sometimes good, sometimes old retro classics
NOTE: Those are DRM Free games, they are not for steam, drm free means download and play, no login is required to play the game

WGN (WhosGamingNow, it used to be a community, now its a website for game/dev promotion)
https://whosgamingnow.net/
Why: to promote companies, games and developers
Frequency: Few times a month, sometimes more sometimes less
Quality of games: mosty lower quality, some mid
Note: This site crashes on big giveaways, some giveaways are raffles (chance to win)

Opium Pulses (Community)
http://www.opiumpulses.com
Why: To promote companies/developers or to grow community
Frequency: Once a month
Quality of games: mostly lower quality
Note: This site has a different system, they give 10k keys, and when 10k people join the giveaway, they send out the keys to everyone (its not an instant win)

HRKGame (Game Store and Bundles)
Why: they promote their website
Frequency: About Once a month, sometimes less, sometimes more
Quality of games: mostly lower quality, some mid
Note: This site is blocked on steam, my guess because of the ref links, also the site is region locked in some countries, you need to visit the site from the homepage to get the game, direct link to a giveaway sometimes doesnt work

GameGiveawayOfTheDay (Making Giveaways to promote companies)
https://game.giveawayoftheday.com
Why: To promote companies, games and developers
Frequency: Once in a few months, Wait for the games to be for steam (most are not for steam)
Quality of games: mostly low quality, rarely something better
Note: This site has a lot of ads and weird links with big buttons, so be careful and read the tutorial properly before going to get the game, also a lot of the games are not for steam

GreenManGaming (Game Store)
https://greenmangaming.com
Why: to promote a sale
Frequency: Couple of times per year

DLH (German News Website it has an english version too)

OrlyGift (Giveaway Site)

Frequency: A few times per year
Quality of games, low quality, some mid

Nuuvem (Game Store)
https://www.nuuvem.com/

Duration: Some giveaways last for a few hours, and some last for months.
Quality of games: Low quality, some exceptions

---------------

Godankey, Gleam, Woobox
Those are websites (tools) for making giveaways (a lot of companies use them) Most of those links are banned on steam because scammers are also using those tools. Anyone can use those to make giveaways. You need to trust a company that is making the giveaway. and not the tools.
For example: Fanatical is using Gleam to make some of their giveaways, fanatical is a legit company so that giveaway on gleam is legit. If you see that there is a gleam giveaway for a csgo knife, and you start to do tasks, and it says follow some shady account on twitter, its probably a fake givaway.

Post some other sites that you trust

I don't trust sites that host low-effort garbage asset flip games (with steam keys usually). Indiegala is full of them, while Humble Bundle and GOG never fell so low.

Well, not like they're untrusted, but i don't want to support such businesses in any way.

[Igor Dot Ninja]

i dont mind the asset flips. since i didnt pay or plan to play those games. :)

i dont like it when a company uses weird permissions, like asking you to allow them full access to your twitter, or collects a lot of info that is not really needed.

indiegala is giving better games sometimes, like Lucius :)

Great list, you can add opium pulses [opiumpulses.com] to the list if you wish, as I have won a few keys from there, and also used their shop to buy games with their currency which you get with everyday logins, visiting certain pages, playing games etc.

They are not giving away some exclusive or expensive games, but are not scammers and their keys are not duped nor useless.

I'll write a few more when I remember.

:D sure thanks

they dont actually give away keys themselves, they post when they find a giveaway and for how long. I've been using them for some months now its pretty reliable info.
