I think some people kinda look down on orlygift. -shrug-
Just from a glance, to get this game:
-You have to register to their site, which means giving up your email
-You have to Like (Facebook) or Follow (Twitter)
-You have to Share (Facebook or Twitter)
Even after all that, You aren't guaranteed a key. You're entered into a drawing. You can complete more actions (Tweet, share, join their Steam Group, visit G2A, subscribe to some shlub on YouTube, or invite your friends to the Steam group) to get more chances.
It's obvious they are just using the free game as bait to drive traffic to their website, social media, and Steam Group.
They probably got a limited amount of free keys from the game's dev, and that's why it's a drawing. I wouldn't support this kind of activity at all.

This pretty much sums up my feelings on it.
They are legitimate; I know a few people who have won keys from them. But the ration of time/effort vs reward (even if you win) is pretty sharply weighted toward the former.

I've found orly to be from the easiest end of the spectrum when it comes to 'free' keys for actions. Logging in, three clicks -- and they are just clicks instead of actually 'doing' anything like joining a group or tweeting! -- done.
This time though I'm six clicks in and no key. Previously it has taken only one round. :D
IDK, I really hate all this social media BS. I mean, in general, the culture, not just gaming and GAs and whatever. But I'm poor, lazy and have time on my hands so I'll humour them a bit. But when it comes to stuff I really really really want, I'll rather fork out the money.

Yeah. Free keys are great. Free chances to win keys, with a whole heap of hoops to jump through - not so much.

but orlygift is a permanent site with a system, with every round you get 1 credit and these credits sum up, with every round you join. then you get guaranteed keys, because with every win you lose 50 credits.
here is the system you can read it on the site:
Here is how it works:
For every round you participate you get one credit
As your credits grow you chance to win will also increase
If you win a key, you lose 50 Credits
So how is my chance now?
Total Credits / Your Credits
Example: 1000 Total Credits in Round, You have 20 Credits
Your Chance to win is 1:50
We hope you like this chance and feedback is welcome.
summary: so when you are active on this site you will win keys, because your credits sum up to a point in which you have so high chances you cant really lose.

You scarred be, it won't count as free game, because orlygifts makes giveaways and not everyone wins. You scarred me, because I have now giveaway for 10 copies of this game :D I was afraid of "blacklist 'cause free" etc. I don't care about my cv :D
You can try Your luch here if You are level 3 or above :D

Lol. :D Tho, would be just my luck to buy 10 copies of something for GAs and then have it become free before I got the stupid thing up.
And I'm a poor lil lvl1 bb so not too many Lost Moon GAs for me. :( And having rotten luck with orly this time around. Good thing I don't want LM that bad.
