Batten down the hatches, powder monkeys! We got a coin shop starboard!
Why do you say that? They restocked several of the games from the last batch and, iirc, they did so more than once.
It was a first for them, I believe, but that doesn't necessarily mean they won't repeat it.
Well, not sure if it's worth the gamble of holding on to coins rather than spending them. Then again, what's left is just the newly stocked rebundles (well, though they look as though they'll be out of stock soon) and some old, heavily bundled, low-end games that few people really have any interest in. Not really losing much if you leave coins sitting.
Think the previous restocks cleared out pretty fast, though, so probably not worth the hassle of waiting on one, even before considering whether it's likely or not.

As I noted above, it's a back-and-forth on whether it's worth it or not.
There's no clear, objectively superior option, under these circumstances.
Also, your comment sounded fairly definitive, which is why I was asking. Obviously, if there was no hope, then you may as well spend your coins on, eh, whatever unwanted refuse you can dig out of the dark corners of the room. If there's faint hope, then gambling the few cents of trading card profits [I assume that's what most people are getting those low-end games (heck, or even the better ones) for] is a pretty low raffle entry cost.
Ultimately, if you care enough, the "safe bet" will of course be spending your coins asap. As SpaceClick noted below, it's extremely unlikely that we'll see a restock, given what it'd entail. Personally, though, I just can't bring myself to care enough to grab some junkware just to grab it. :P

Well, I made it since it was starting to look pretty obvious the store stock got empty. And if they waited till now, all is gone.
We do know that there's a Space Monster restock coming... sometime... but that's not the desired title and who knows if people can even make that before it's sold out, whenever it launches.
Better to brace for dissapointment and be surprised than expect the best just to see it not come to fruition.
I hope they atleast got something before the stocks got cleaned.

That would probably be a bad idea for them. Imagine adding new stock for this game, then everyone screaming because they thought it was sold out and used their coins on other games instead. Now they have no coins and can't get the game they really wanted. It would not be good for chrono.gg public relations.

its still free coin, so they doesnt care about ppl complaining about free game
Comment has been collapsed.
Of course they do. The whole point of giving away "free" games is to hopefully get some of those people to also pay for some games. They don't want to make potential customers mad.

i mean, free game is free game, why ppl should complain like this?
Comment has been collapsed.
Time is money. They are not free. It took time to come to the site every day and get the coins, as did to try to redeem the coins.
But even besides that, people will complain about anything.

u dont need to pay for those games, so they are free
Comment has been collapsed.
You're paying with time (visiting the site every day). It's called barter, not free. You are exchanging a service for a good.
Comment has been collapsed.
u miss the point here...so if i give 100$ for you its not free cause u need to take it in your hand, put it inside wallet etc?
What service u exchange for a good?
U know what is service?
Comment has been collapsed.
The "service" is visiting their website every day, looking at the special game they have for sale and pressing the button to get your free coins. People pay big money to run commercials on TV. You are getting paid with these coins for viewing their webpage.
Are you going to keep visiting their store page every day even though you will no longer get coins, or there is nothing to buy with the coins? If not, why not? It's just your time that would be wasted, and I assume you think time is not worth anything.
Comment has been collapsed.
have u ever paid any tax for your service?
Its not commercial when you open their webpage, commercial is when u advertise it.
So if u win giveaway here its not free?U need to open webpage, press ENTER button, you know, u invest ur time here...
Free EPIC games/HB games/Steam promotions -100% are not free games?
Comment has been collapsed.
If you have your ad-blocker turned on on steamgifts.com, then yes, it is free. Otherwise you are viewing ads in return for getting a game.
But technically, yes, nothing is completely free. But if both parties are getting something out of it, then it is a barter, not really free.
For instance, if I just dug up a bunch of large rocks on my property and want to get rid of them, and I offer anyone to have them for "free". Are they really free? I am getting someone to take these unwanted rocks off my property, they are getting "free" rocks for their rock garden.
Both parties could see it as getting something for "free" (one is getting free rocks, the other is getting a free service of having the rocks removed from their property). So which one is getting the "free" deal?
I understand that this is all very pedantic. The term "free" has been used in advertising forever. It sounds better to say "buy one get one free" instead of "get two for the price of one", which is what it really is.
You will almost always have to put in some effort to get something for "free" so yes, technically nothing is completely free, but I would say that if the other party is getting something from you in exchange for you getting something for "free", then it is not truly free.

stop philosophing xD
it was free, no one was paying for this, u dont need to use coins and this is the end of conversation

If the game isn't listing on Steam as being in Early Access, then it's extremely unlikely that a key is actually for a beta version. So when you're in doubt, that's generally the first place to look. Since Chrono says it's a full game, and the game is post-beta/early access, there's no real concern to be had.
It's pretty normal to stumble across full release keys that claim they're for Beta Testing, especially within free promotions or raffles or the like, as some developers/publishers appear to favor using that configuration when generating keys for any kind of promotional use (rather than just solely for beta access).
