Rawson, psst I don't think you noticed that THIS is a different website to www.giveawayoftheday.com it may be operated by the same people but it is a completely different project and it does not giveaway software every day. In fact to prove the disconnect between the generic software and games software sites, the generic software site is at the time of writing advertising THIS competition AS A GAME GIVEAWAY that is running with the same countdown clock as todays generic software giveaway and big green go to download page even though it's a competition and not a giveaway AND the competition is OVER! So of course people are going to be dissapointed to find it's not a giveaway and it's now not even a competition its OVER! It is for all intents and purposes just click-bait for the advert impressions on this page!

Sven, not all developers want to give away thousands of free copies with nothing in return. This way, smaller devs get a much needed marketing boost. The alternative is for smaller devs to never participate here, leaving you with a smaller, less diverse selection of probably just mobile games to snatch up. Basically - consider it working both ways, to be fair on both sides - not just entirely for your benefit.

Mustafa Game, thats a very fair comment if it was applicable on a web site that gave away free games and also ran competitions to help developers promote their work.
BUT...I'm not sure if you noticed the name of this web site??
Does the title "GIVE AWAY" confuse you into thinking it may mean contests?
In my books...it means FREE.

Jackorama, I've even tried addressing this incorrect caption also. That was at least 6 months ago. And what does it read even after this long? Now we have this incorrect game giveaway now with a trial? You bet.

jeffrey, same issue for me for the past several of these types of offerings. No concrete explanation what changed but things were fine even 6 months ago for me. Takes the wind out of my sails for sure, esp since I have to share this and promote that to even have a 1% chance of getting a key from a 'giveaway' site.

Jon, Good to see that i am not the only one with this problem.So Give Away of the day whats the problem with the Twitter failure ?

Susan Queen, many of us feel that Giveaway needs to change their game giveaway to reflect the truth. Not some give you all my information for a CHANCE to win? That's actually misleading and far from the truth.

Jim, Very True ! People have been coming here on a daily basis and sharing their personal info out of habit. In the interim, all our personal info is making people rich while we get spammed to death by advertisers in hope that we "may win" a game or two.
I can go to torrents and download all this stuff they offer here...but I'm decent enough to do it legally with a free registration code they offer us !
Have the damn decency to give us a FREE GIVEAWAY ...as this site so blatantly claims it does ...and stop having us promote you on social media, for false promises !
Its either GIVEAWAY .....or NOT !

Susan Queen, I'm one that has no use for junk like Facebook and Twitter!! I've read too much on what FB is all about, and I stay away from it. Besides, years ago, I had it, and I didn't like the whole set up. I'm just not into the whole social media bandwagon. Anyway, I've seen this site, have this kind of giveaway, for a long time now. I don't know why you've said that it's changed. This "getting keys", from doing the FB and Twitter thing, is not new. They have it every once in awhile. I just pass them by, and wait for the next one.

Jim, Not to mention the fact that the name "Game Giveaway of the DAY" is no longer accurate since giveaways occur only during the weekends and not on a daily basis. The giveaways for Android and IOS are separate websites, and typically offer old flash games that have been rewritten as "apps."
