The theme for this month is

OKTOBERFEST!

(Thank you to PsychoApeMan for the suggestion!)

Games that qualify for it are:

Games made or set in Germany - Handy list of German developers
Games released or won in October
Games with "Oct-" prefix (i.e. at the beginning of a word) or "8" (anywhere) in the title
Games with exactly 8 characters (letters/digits/symbols) in the title
Games costing 8P to enter giveaway
Games with 8+ hours time to beat - use HLTB times, either one of the 3 works.
Games won 8+ months ago

Don't have any game that fits the theme?

For this month I have decided to let people play their normal backlog games in case no win qualifies. Please use the "Note" section when submitting the game to inform me of this situation.

You can submit this months games you are going to play here:
