Hello and welcome to the madness!
The challenge is simple: Play and beat any 6 games, starting today, that have been featured in any given Humble Monthly/Choice bundle in two months.

The prize: 2x Black Myth: Wukong
Note: This means I'm giving away two copies of the game and will have 2 winners.

Game length does not matter and I'm not looking for 100% achievement runs. So long as you play and beat 6 games, I'm happy. You can go easy mode and play a bunch of 1h games or go crazy and play 6 +30h games. So long as they were in a monthly at a given point, it is all good.

Just post a comment with either screenshots/ achievements showing that you fulfilled the criteria and I'll add you on Steam and give you the link. Feel free to share your thoughts on the games you've played, but it is not required.

FAQ:

Why you doing this?

I hate money. That and I realized I've been subbed to the monthly for over eight years (yes it has been that long, I checked) and it occurred to me that I've barely touched the games I've gotten from it, let alone played them. Figured the same would be true for a few others, so I figured this is a good way to change that. A sensible person would probably unsub in this situation, but please refer to the beginning as to why that will not happen.

I've played the first X minutes of a game, can I pick it for the event?

No. You cannot have any play time or achievements prior to the start of the event. The only exception is idle time from farming Steam cards.

Can I play a MP only game?

No. It needs to have an "end" in order for me to count it as beaten, so it needs to have a campaign/story mode.

If a game was sold as a non-Steam copy in a bundle (origin/uplay/drm-free/etc), can I pick it as a choice if I own a Steam copy?

No. The reason being that those who own a Steam copy would have an extra option that would not be available to everyone who bought the same bundle. If the game was originally sold as a non-Steam copy, but Humble later provided steam keys to everyone who bought the bundle, then the game would be allowed.

Why six games?

The first few monthlies had 6/7 games in them so I went with that.

How long are you going to do this?

Until my credit card statements gives me nightmares.

This event "ends" on November 5th when the next next HB Choice releases, though the giveaway itself will end the next day. If you manage to finish game number six in between that time, feel free to post, but know that I cannot guarantee that I'll be able to give you the link in time.

Good luck, have fun and stay safe.
Thanks for reading, and safe travels..

I've only purchased 3 fanatical bundles this year and nothing from HB has interested me since October 2023 - I don't own enough monthly games left to participate.

Tbh, Name 3 was the best of the series. After that the developers lost their touch and the series fell off :/

It's time to participate again. I got few question.

What would make Heretic's Fork and Shotgun King count as beaten?
Also I want to play The Forgotten City, but I launched it one time and made a screenshot, which gave me an achievement for using photo mode. Can I still play it as part of the event?

Hi! Throwing in my unasked cents and pennies!
Precedents:
Shotgun King - "Complete" achievement. It's one of those games that CJ lets slide (yet!). It takes about 3h to complete the run and get this achievement (the second easiest achievement in the game, 63.4% of players have it, while the next one shows only 8.3% of getting it).
Heretic's Fork - the contestant 100%-ed the game in 27hours (average from howlongtobeat is 31.8h).

I really love these events, thanks for doing them!

Game Bundle Acheivement/Screenshot Review
1. Fashion Police Squad Apr 2024 You’re a Winner Baby! 3.5/5. Fun but clunky. The grapple hook is not fun to use but is mandatory, and weapon switching gets a little old after awhile. Has some fun levels and some obnoxious ones, so overall I'd say it's fun*.
2. The Excavation of Hob's Barrow Apr 2024 Abraxas Rex 3.5/5. A pretty good point and click game. Very dialog heavy and can be repetitive. Had to look at a guide 2 times to find out what to do.
3. SCP : Secret Files Nov 2023 Who Am I 3.5/5. Oh man I really really wanted to love this game, and there were parts of it I did really love. But the pacing was a bit slow and some of the voice acting was cheesy and/or poor. Overall I'm glad I played, but I wouldn't have finished if not for the MIAM challenge.
4. Amanda The Adventurer May 2024 The End? 4/5. A fun little spooky adventure game. You solve puzzles and watch semi-creepy videos. Pretty enjoyable!
5. Hardspace: Shipbreaker Nov 2023 See you Space Cowboy 4/5. I enjoyed this game, but I don't know how wide of an appeal it has. Sometimes the controls were frustrating, sometimes the voice acting was a bit cheesy, but overall I'd recommend it.
6. Behind the Frame May 2023 100% 4/5. A nice little art game that doesn't get too artsy-fartsy. Lovely art style and is short enough to not overstay its welcome. Kind of lacking in gameplay, but that's just the type of game this is.

Game (Bundle) Status Achievement/Screenshot Comments
Narita boy (September 2021) Beaten 7.4h Achivements Savior of worlds Classic case of style over subctence. Every scene is pleasure for eyes, but clunky delayed controls are deal breaker for the game build around platforming and fighting. Quasi-religious story is interesting but bloated with pretentious graphomanic writing.
Heretic's Fork (July 2024) Beaten 13h Screenshot Last thing you got before final credits Addictive gameplay loop, great soundtrack, but a bit shallow.
Fashion Police Squad (April 2024) Beaten 7.5h Achivements You're a Winner Baby! Short, sweet, snappy and fun.
Everhood (February 2022) Completed 15.8h Achivements Adventure Continues It got everything great game should have; deep worldbuilding, interesting characters with a story to tell, distinct visual design and addictive, fun and sometimes really hard gameplay. Easy recommend to anybody. Top2 games I played this year.
Eliza (February 2020) Beaten 6h Screenshot final credits Interesting topic, but VN is not the genre I enjoy, almost bored me to death within just few hours, Zach should stick to puzzles and solitaires and I should stick to games with an actual gameplay.
Frog Detective 1: The Haunted Island (December 2020) Completed 0.7h Achivements ANSWERED THE CALL Barely a game, basic puzzles, quirky adolescence writing
