OK, we’ve spent a lot of time this year writing up reviews, and frankly, there’s not enough room in the Gaming Basement for all of them…. So, we thought it would be a neat idea to start a series of weekly giveaways where our loyal readers can enter in raffles to win these games! We’d love to see the games end up in homes where they can get played and enjoyed!
First up – Star Wars Unlock!– you can read our review here!

Unfortunately, for the time being, we’re going to limit this to US mailing addresses only. Given the cost of international shipping right now – it might actually cost us more than the value of the game to mail it abroad – and well, we don’t have the budget for that… As long as the game fits into a USPS flat rate box, that’s likely how we’re going to send it to you…
What’s the catch? There really isn’t one. Enter the contest. If you win, we send you the lightly used game on our dime. There is no cost to enter, no purchase necessary, etc.
How to Enter:
- Go to our Instagram and find the post for the giveaway – make a comment to that post, and this is your official entry to the contest. https://www.instagram.com/p/CImP5k8hC7J/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
- Get an extra entry if you tag two friends in your comment.
- Get an extra entry if you follow us on Instagram
- Finally, get two extra entries by commenting here and make a joke or tell me something interesting about… Star Wars. (If your WordPress account is different than your Instagram, please let me know what your IG handle is!)
You must comment on the Instagram post to enter! (I will draw a random number and then figure out the winner from the comments on IG!)
Contest ends Tuesday 12/15/2020 at noon Eastern US time.
I will contact the winner via Instagram DM, and the winner has 48 hours to confirm info or else I might have to pick another winner…. Good luck to everyone who enters, and remember you can get up to 5 entries for the contest!
Winners so far:
#1 Pendulum – larryjrice73
#2 Star Wars Unlock! – ???
I love that you’re doing this! We’re up to our necks in Star Wars at the moment with our 8yo doing his first watch-through. I, II, and III came out while I was in college and I couldn’t believe how young Natalie Portman looked in them! Also, we’d never caught before that the Death Star was in the planning phase in II.

Thanks for the contest! May the force be with whoever is lucky enough to win!

Why is Yoda such a good gardener?
Because he has a green thumb.
Who are the best smelling soldiers in Star Wars?

Not sure about “interesting”, but the old Expanded Universe books had a lot of good stories (and some not so good). Some of those characters translated into the current books/movies. I’ll admit that I was sad to see some of those characters, like Mara Jade, go.
In Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, John Williams was honored by getting a part – Oma Tres, a bartender in Kijimi City. In said bar, there are objects referencing all 51 of Williams’ Academy Award nominations.
Appreciate the giveaway!
How is duct tape like the Force?
…It has a Dark Side, a Light Side and it binds the galaxy together.
The first Star Wars PEZ dispenser didn’t appear until 1997, 20 years after the movie’s release.
