    I love the idea of these events but they have me running all over the place in my backlog and I can't handle having to download so many games anymore. Good luck though!

    From the FAQ:
    How long do I have to play?
    - The event ends at 10am UTC on September 1st
    Focusing on older games, year-by-year, take a look at the My Lists panel for my backlog. Always looking for new friends,

    I don’t always have time to participate in the TA events, but I really appreciate the time and effort that goes into making this stuff for the community. Keep up the good work!

    This is an awesome idea! smile
    At this point I'm convinced Xbox wants their console names to be confusing.

    I love the idea for this event but it would have been better if the genres selected were all based on previous games played by that person. I got Real Time and Roguelite, and I have absolutely no interest in those types of games. The rest were all fine though.

    I know we have those two but I’m not talking about just this event alone. I’m talking about having a horror tag generally added.

    There’s loads of games that’s are horror games but don’t get listed because they don’t meet the “survival” or “action” horror sub tags.
    Relentless879 said:
    You have action horror and survival horror, whether they will appear as a bingo is random I guess
    Yes, and that leads to Layers of Fear being an Adventure game, as it's neither "Action-", nor "Survival Horror" and just "Horror" doesn't exist.
    Which is kinda stupid laugh
    Bramble the Mountain king is another horror game but doesn’t get listed as such as it doesn’t meet the survival or action tags. 💀

    There’s so many games that could be listed.

    We've been working on this for a while, we hope you enjoy it!
    It’s a great concept & I look forward to following it. Nevertheless, I like to play games one at a time so I can immerse myself in the experience.

    Yup, I got 3 variations of racing games (which I barely play) yet no beat ‘em up or roguelite, which I love. It’s a shame because now I won’t be finishing my board. Maybe 1 skip would be good just so someone could finish their sheet without playing something they don’t enjoy.

    Also would love it if you got another sheet every time you finished the previous one.

    Using games started during the Valentines relay will help fill one or more extra squares

    I like the idea of this and I am participating, but I don't have a huge backlog as I 100% things as I go, and I also don't start many games as try to focus on a couple at a time.

    Might encourage me to pick up some DLC though for games I've 100%'ed the base game already!
