I tried to search a game for giveaway and i typed the exact name. Instead of the game I wanted, I got 4000+ results and none of them hits

Sins of A Dark Age

Is it not available for giveaway? I've been away for quite a long time, even this new site overhaul surprised me.

It doesn't show up for me either. Dunno why. Maybe it was free somewhere or something and it got disabled. Someone with more insight about the matter will answer you.

I was told by the community several times, that every free and bundled game is on that list here.
Seems like SG just forgot to add it to the database at all

Edit: seems like it is not the case here according to a moderator http://www.steamgifts.com/go/comment/sUpYBSD

The game is missing HERE, so it got not bundled nor got it removed. It is for sale on steam http://store.steampowered.com/app/251970/
Seems like it got never added to the database

Edit: But thanks for the name, at least i got proof for the fact, that some games are missing here at all :D Had a longer discussion some days ago about a different case and the same topic came up. But well, almost everyone was telling, that there are no missing games in the Database. You just prove all of them wrong, hehe

Removed games do not show in the bundle list.

You are WRONG! HERE is the proof for at least one, and there are MANY of them ;-)

Let me clarify: Removing a game from the giveaway list does not make it automatically appear in the bundle list.

They are two separate actions. The Bundler adds games to the bundle list. It typically coincides with removed games, but not always.

Like i said before, i had a hot discussion about not being able to create giveaway for my steam gifts and everyone except one person told me, that every single game that ever got removed is there.
I did not create that list, so i was not rly sure. Thanks for clarification :)

Maybe something to do with a developer GA of it back on the old SG, 15000 copies I believe, followed by most of those winners re-gifting it

There were beta keys people were giving away if I remember correctly. I got one myself.

Sins of a Dark Age isn't allowed to be given away because all of the giveaways for it were people regifting the game from that 15,000-copy giveaway the developer did. Other games with such situations, as well as games where the keys have been abused, are all missing from the list for these reasons.
