I've tried it, didn't work. I also tried Firefox, same story.
Edit: it worked this once, not sure why it didn't work before.

"What's bugging you?" quest seems to be fixed so I'll share the solution now that it triggered for me.
It seems like you are unable to get the Lootboy pack from "Unleash the core!", may be a bug, been trying for a bit to get it now.

Strange, a few people are also saying on their Discord server that they can't do it. May still be bugged and some of us just got lucky.

It is a nice event that came out of nowhere. The community is working together to solve puzzles and I got some games out of everything. It made me think of that coal event and Portal 2 ARG back when Valve actually gave a shit about themselves

Try another browser. For me trying Firefox worked. For some disabling adblocker worked and for others using the desktop version on mobile.

I paused my adblock and ublockOrigin after which it worked, so if you also use those extensions, try that.

Thats a very big slap in the face for me.
I already got cheated out of 100xp because the "best of the booth" quest didn't vomplete for me when I did it on site.
And now I can't complete the survey and "on site" quest either.
Another 270xp gone for me. I already had a hard time staying in the top1000.

There are several quests to complete for some rewards that will be revealed later (it's not clear whether these will include Steam content or not).
You will need to make a new account (the accounts created during previous years seem to not work).
Quests page
Rewards page
Non-cosmetic rewards (so far):
Level 8, 9, 10 rewards (scroll down to "Level Up Rewards") are codes to redeem on https://www.lootboy.de/redeemCode for a lootpack containing a Steam key + some stuff that probably no one needs (vouchers, the usual coin drops, in-game rewards for mobile games)
You can redeem multiple codes for the same level on the same Lootboy account.<- this was changed on π 29 Aug π; Lootboy restricted redemption of how many codes you can redeem on one account. For now, redemption still works on a new account but be aware that Lootboy is known to ban multi-account individuals. It's unknown whether the Gamescom team is aware of this restriction or not.A list of drops reported so far can be found β© here βͺ (also, post your drops in the comments please!).
Level 8, 9, 10 rewards share the same pool of Steam games.
"Unleash the core" quest rewards seems to share a common pool of games with the other packs, but will be listed separately for now. The list of reported drops can be found β© here βͺ.
"Go for Gold! ... and items" quest rewards also seems to share the same pool of games as the other packs, but will be listed separately for now. The list of reported drops can be found β© here βͺ.
π 02 Sep π Lootboy codes are no longer redeemable source
Known issues
The following issues have been reported by several people and already forwarded to the devs who are actively working on fixing them. Since it's Sunday evening in Germany though, we might see some improvements on Monday the earliest.
Lootboy restricted redemption of how many codes you can redeem on one account. For now, redemption still works on a new account but be aware that Lootboy is known to ban multi-account individuals. It's unknown whether the Gamescom team is aware of this restriction or not.

This quest seems to be awarded for completing all the daily quests.
However, many people who already completed all of them did not automatically obtain it.
Those who did though visited various links from https://www.gamescom.global/en/games?sorting=relevance
Copying the URL in a new tab worked for some. Clicking several games and / or applying filters worked for others.
Pressing the refresh button on the top right of the quest box seem to trigger it for some.
Currently, the completion doesn't show up as a notice, so it's hard to tell what exactly works.
