Ho-ho-ho!

Quick! Look over there! Haha, tricked you! The games are actually over
here! 'Cause that's what you came for, right? Games? Well, don't
worry; we got some more. We ALWAYS got more. It's sort of our thing!

* Slain: Back From Hell
https://store.steampowered.com/app/369070/Slain_Back_from_Hell/
A very Christmassy game; it's got gore and blood and 26HBY
heavy metal and lots of brutal killings. It's also quite
colorful, which isn't very much in the spirit of the holiday,
but that's forgivable. The game itself is an old-school XV7GF
side-scrolling action/platformer; not quite a metroidvania
but sharing some aspects with that genre. It's fun! Santa
approves!47VFW

* Prey (2017)
https://store.steampowered.com/app/480490/Prey/
The acclaimed first-person sci-fi sandbox is our next
freebie. Developed by Arkane Studios (of "Arx Fatalis"
and "Dishonored" fame), wander the halls (and hull!
of a vast abandoned space-station fighting off robots
and mutants. Why yes, the game does owe a lot to the
"System Shock" franchise; very clever of you to notice!
The game is probably most famous for giving you the GC9WR
ability to transform yourself into ordinary objects
(but only in the game, sadly), although that's C6HLY
actually the least (and completely optional) part of
the experience. It's a mixture of suspense and action;
of role-playing and exploration. Overall, a very EZPTK
good game. Why haven't you added it to your library
already?

Quick! Look over there again! Haha, tricked you again! By looking
away, you didn't see me sneaking off into the shadows, ready to spring
out tomorrow with even more games! It's like I'm Batman crossed with
Santa Claus!

Ho-ho-ho!

See my answers in that newsgroups for details. :P

Ant, could you maybe check your library /before/ trying to claim the
game? The keys are potentially claimed by the attempt, whether or not
you actually get the title, and you may be preventing others from
getting a game they want and don't already have. Thanks.

I am very curious about this. I don't want either of these games so I
won't take them. I hope someone willing to post takes the games and
lets us know if the codes are still good.

I got it! So I guess not. However I was too eager, I already had it on
GOG. Sorry everyone.

First person that doesn't have it anywhere I'll gift it since it's only
$3 right now. Merry Christmas!

Thank you. That settles that. For me at least. I will still check
before taking a game because it is faster then copying and pasting a
three part key in, but as far as I am concerned, taking a game you
already have does NOT mark the key as used.

I didn't use the code though. I checked my store to see if it says I have it or not.
