Hello and welcome to the madness!
The challenge is simple: Play and beat any 6 games, starting today, that have been featured in any given Humble Monthly/Choice bundle in two months.

The prize: 2x Red Dead Redemption
Note: This means I'm giving away two copies of the game and will have 2 winners.

Game length does not matter and I'm not looking for 100% achievement runs. So long as you play and beat 6 games, I'm happy. You can go easy mode and play a bunch of 1h games or go crazy and play 6 +30h games. So long as they were in a monthly at a given point, it is all good.

Just post a comment with either screenshots/ achievements showing that you fulfilled the criteria and I'll add you on Steam and give you the link. Feel free to share your thoughts on the games you've played, but it is not required.

FAQ:

Why you doing this?

I hate money. That and I realized I've been subbed to the monthly for over nine years (yes it has been that long, I checked) and it occurred to me that I've barely touched the games I've gotten from it, let alone played them. Figured the same would be true for a few others, so I figured this is a good way to change that. A sensible person would probably unsub in this situation, but please refer to the beginning as to why that will not happen.

I've played the first X minutes of a game, can I pick it for the event?

No. You cannot have any play time or achievements prior to the start of the event. The only exception is idle time from farming Steam cards.

Can I play a MP only game?

No. It needs to have an "end" in order for me to count it as beaten, so it needs to have a campaign/story mode.

If a game was sold as a non-Steam copy in a bundle (origin/uplay/drm-free/etc), can I pick it as a choice if I own a Steam copy?

No. The reason being that those who own a Steam copy would have an extra option that would not be available to everyone who bought the same bundle. If the game was originally sold as a non-Steam copy, but Humble later provided steam keys to everyone who bought the bundle, then the game would be allowed.

Why six games?

The first few monthlies had 6/7 games in them so I went with that.

How long are you going to do this?

Until my credit card statements gives me nightmares.

This event "ends" on February 4th when the next next HB Choice releases, though the giveaway itself will end the day after. If you manage to finish game number six in between that time, feel free to post, but know that I cannot guarantee that I'll be able to give you the link in time.

Good luck, have fun and stay safe.
Thanks for reading, and go enjoy the wilderness.

Note:
I'll be on vacation over the Christmas season until mid-January and I won't be available during this time. If you have any questions about a game's eligibility, please ask about it now so that I can give you adequate time to play/repick.

Maybe. Possibly. Not sure how interested I am in RDR or how much time I'll have.

I'll add a list of games later.

2months! Only "big games"!

Game Status Impressions
A Plague Tale: Innocence / Started on December 7th/ Finishedβœ” on December 20th Knights!. Before playing: I already played "A Plague Tale" through EpicStore giveaway. I wasn't impressed then, 3 years ago, cause despite the presentation the gameplay was rather simplistic and the story was too childish for my taste. After Playing: Replaying improved my opinion of the game only a bit. Probably due to my better hardware this time that can handle nice but rather cumbersome graphics. Also I managed to get surprised by totally forgetting the death of one of the characters, thankfully the rest of the cast did the same 5min later, but I found it enjoyable in my own way.
A Plague Tale: Requiem / Started on December 24th / progress. Before playing: I hope replaying the first part won't take away my paradoxical excitement to play the sequel!
Persona 4 Golden / Started on December 27th / progress. Before playing: Sooner or later every man must find courage to play some cult JRPG no matter how impenetrable and looooong it seems.

First time partaking. There's no chance in hell I'll be able to beat 6 games, but for a chance at RDR let's try anyway:

  1. GRIS - beaten. Achievement: The End
