What's the option when your redeemed key appears to be non-activable in your country?
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm in the same boat with TR1-6. UK region, "not available for purchase in your country." Well, actually the bundle is available in the UK but maybe not the variant redeemed by the key?
edit: according to nice AWA rep on Discord, they're looking into it with the publisher, but "probably delayed though with the Easter weekend". hold onto your keys! :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Not sure why TR has region lock, even the Admins don't know so still checking that info out.
Currently knows that LATAM, UK are all excluded.
Seems to be NA only, still checking.

Even if repeating refresh or claiming through another browser or on mobile or using mobile data?
Comment has been collapsed.
I tried it at the same time on PC (wifi) and mobile (mobile data), I logged in an hour before and updated every 3 minutes, in the end I was rejected in all the games, only two months later I was able to claim what I had left and now I'm 4 months rejected

Just in case before next Game Vault, run your reCaptcha V3 score https://antcpt.com/score_detector/ to see if you're around 0.3 or below (that maybe the issue you get rejected)
Need score above 0.3
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh wow, my score is 0.3, how did it get so bad? I wonder if it has to do with me using an ad-blocker with specific scripts to get youtube to behave the way I want.
Welp, at least now I know why it's always slow AF when loading the vault for me, guess I'm lucky to get anything at all.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well unsure how Google Captcha system works but yep it's somehow like that, more lower the score, more issues passing Captcha.
0.3 and above are mostly fine. (More above are smoother)
Below is problematic.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well as long as you don't fall below 0.3 then it's fine, since most problem starts with score below 0.3
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm... sadly idk, since Google uses unknown mechanism to up or lower that score depending on your behavior, but still idk what they check or what to improve the score.
But never repeat the test so rapidly, otherwise DDOS/considering you spamming and lowers the score more.

That's just bad luck mate, I've had that message many times before. When a few thousand people click at the same time for a pot containing a hundred keys, there'll be a robot somewhere choosing the winners. Next time you could well be one of the lucky ones. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Try getting one of the ones left that you are not interested. You will probably get it. I think it's simply you were too late for the ones you wanted, sadly

"We are unable to accept your purchase at this time. Thank you for your interest."
I’ve had the same thing for the second or third month in a row - it's a kind of invisible captcha from Google (they wrote about it in Discord)
A kind of rating system.
Quote:
"ahh, your recaptcha is failing on purchase
its background scores from google
they have a side eye on you
Things to help improve your score.
Use a google account with your browser.
Dont use incognito.
Dont use VPN
Do a cookie/cache clear and even a system restart cant hurt.
Stop doign things google doesnt like."

+1 for me this month, the real icing on the cake for waking up at 5am ahead of a 14 hour work day 🙄. Don't mean to sound bitter but AWA really shouldn't be relying on, at best, such a capricious and mysterious service and at worst one that is contradictory at the best of times. And the suggestion via discord that people need to change their internet habits to appease an increasingly dubious tech company like Google in order to have a chance to access the vault is laughable, if not borderline insulting. AWA needs to do more in-house ways of dealing with bots....which ironically they've claimed for a while isn't actually an issue 🤷♂️.
And for the record, my rating on the site Megumin linked.......0.9 🙄, unless of course I'm to be suggested that it was different at 5am this morning......🤦♂️

The key is restricted ROW.
Means 127 countries excluded, only available in 123 countries.
Excluded list you can check below
https://steamdb.info/sub/1250481/
The keys may get replaced for regions but no confirmation until the talk with publisher,
and due to Easter Weekend it might be delayed,
so sorry and hope response come out soon while AWA getting it sorted.

Basically ROW key on Steam that happens to appear sometimes.
Now since need to wait Dev to respond AWA (but due to weekend + Easter holidays) might take a little longer.

Latest update, yesterday on Alienware Arena's Discord:
"Another update on the Tomb Raider Codes -- The publisher is still working on them as it looks like it's and issue with Steam and the Bundle as the codes should be eligible for every region that the game is available in (which is most). So they're still working on a resolution, but hopefully will mean your existing codes should work soon."
Comment has been collapsed.
No news on discord since then, and I doubt there'll be any over the weekend... Now we'll have to wait till Monday starts in the US to hopefully hear from them again.

Latest update (yesterday evening), from Alienware's community manager:
"I'm hoping to have answers on Monday, the publisher is waiting to hear back from steam right now to understand why the codes aren't working. Until they figure that out they can't even give new codes"
Comment has been collapsed.
Today's update on the discord is "nothing yet." (yes, this is a quote)

No worries! I find it very frustrating to have finally managed to snatch a key from the vault in time only to have it not being redeemable where I am... So it's good to know I'm not the only one in that situation!

Oh my god it has! Man, what a relief, I must admit my faith in Aspyr was very close to 0... And yet they delivered. Great way to start the week-end :-)

I had a key for "Sorry we're closed" from a giveaway a few months ago, from AWA, and when trying to redeem it today, that key appeared to be a duplicate. I asked AWA, their laconic answer was "Unfortunately, since this giveaway was in November of 2024, the keys for this giveaway are no longer valid.". Nothing about a time limit anywhere, though.
So if you still have one, probably say your goodbyes.
Comment has been collapsed.
Me too. And it's not the first time that it happens for me.
Previously: "Bizango Blast" got around 2019 and tried to redeem it in 2024. Then, "Moo Lander" got in 2022 and tried to redeem it in 2024. For this later, AWA replied to me 'It's common for developers to set an expiration date for their keys. We suggest redeeming the keys right after you claim them, as keys that are years old won't always be valid.'. But November 2024 to April 2025, it's barely half year old and like Zolivv said 'Nothing about a time limit anywhere, though.' :/

Ok thanks, I just asked the developer, you can follow the thread here:

Wah this month got a few good games.
I guess this month top gone list:
1) Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Hope that able to get it but sure gone in 2 second which I never able to get on time)
2) Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel (My second aim)
3) Xbox Game Pass - 1 Month Pass
4) Revenge of the Savage Planet
5) Captain Blood
6) Dead by Daylight
7) Tempest Rising
8) Warside
9) V Rising
These 4 games should able to last until last day of month
Bionic Bay
DIG VR
Eternal Return - In Game Package
Hotel Architect
Do you have same guess like me for top gone list?
Comment has been collapsed.
My priority list would be.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 > Bionic Bay > Hotel Architect
But it will likely be Bionic Bay because the last few months my browser would just load endlessly until all the popular choices are gone.
Comment has been collapsed.
Gamepass price is weird. I'm guessing it's ultimate even if it's not specified but that's $20 for a month yet it's priced higher than Clair Obscur that costs $50.
Not that I'm personally bothered by it, since 1 month doesn't seem like an interesting grab for me, but it just seems odd.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, they changed the description to mention it's PC Gamepass. Since the description had " Plus, enjoy hundreds of high-quality games with friends on console, PC, and cloud." I thought it might be Ultimate, but I guess it could just mean that you're playing with friends on console due to cross play or they just used a generic Gamepass decription, still a bit of a misleading description.
The fact that it's only the PC version makes the price a bit more wacky.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank you for keeping us up-to-date, Megumin. I could go for some game pass, but I'd only risk it if the keys are Ultimate, and global. That price is hefty.
I'm currently playing E33 on console, and it's quite good. Maybe even a contender for game of the year. It's worth the price, imo.
Comment has been collapsed.
It's a fun frustrating game, but if it's on your lane, good luck, hope you get it! :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Yay, Clair Obscur! I've started playing on gamepass but sure as hell won't be able to finish it before my sub ends. I would obviously loooove to be able to snatch a key from AWA. I didn't think I would enjoy it much as JRPG-style battles usually bore me, but combat is more dynamic in Clair Obscur, voice acting is superb, the story is engaging and the soundtrack is amazing (I'll probably get it at some point too)... now I understand why people are raving about it. It is GOTY material.
I doubt I'll get Clair Obscur so... well Captain Blood looks interesting. I'll try the demo.
Edit: Meh. The demo felt pretty... bland.
