Hi,

So I recently won a giveaway, but when I try to add the game into my library, it says that "This is a restricted gift which can only be redeemed in these countries: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Republic of, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Ukraine, Russian Federation".

So, what are my options? Can I make a giveaway of this game or will that be breaking the rules?

Thank you in advance

P.S. If this is in the wrong category, I'll change it or maybe a mod could

The person who posted the giveaway owes you a game.

Return the gift to the gifter and tell them you can't activate it. If they provide you a row copy, add it to your library and mark as received. If, within 7 days, they don't, mark it as not received. Read this and this.

  • Gifting region locked games is against the rules
  • regifting a game you won is against the rules
  • not activating a game you won on your account is against the rules

Contact the giveaway creator and ask him to replace the gift with the one without restrictions. If he refuses - wait for a week and mark giveaway as "not received". Don't give away this gift here, it's against the rules.

First of all, regifting is against the rules, so don't do that.
Second, contact the giveaway creator and ask him for a region-free copy. If he can't/won't provide one, mark as not received after 7 days and move on I'm afraid.

Thanks for your replies, I sent the gift back. It's not that big of a deal, but next time I'll know better.

Have a nice day, all!
