The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
After 17 memorable years of giveaways, Freeola's Win Any Game competition is coming to an end. With over £225,000 worth of prizes awarded, I think we can all agree that it's had a pretty incredible run and we hope you've all enjoyed it.
For more on the history of the competition, some light reminiscences and the full announcement of the change, please see our post on the Freeola Blog:

As explained in that post, there will be another four chances to win in September, so get writing and hopefully you can win one of the last sets of prizes. Who will cement their place in history by becoming the last name on the Winners List? Over to you all...
Thanks again to everyone who took part. And we'll let you know on here when any new competitions come up that might be of interest.
Finally, if any of you regulars have any particular memories of the competition, its controversies or notable winning-entries since the year 2000, feel free to share them on this thread, as we pour out a metaphorical 40oz to the memory of a beloved competition.

Those early years of Special Reserve giving out Prizes along with one of their 'reddies' sounded like it was gone for good until Freeola decided that it was too good a deal to ignore and continued the trend. The GAD name came from those early days and stuck, even though the new competition wasn't daily or, later, even a game.
The competition has been fierce at times, too, and always enjoyable reading others reviews and chatting with like-minded people.
The wins for the short story competitions were the best, though. Fondly remembered times writing and reading some great stories.

I'm getting all nostalgic now I've read that blog post!
Will any more game review prizes be awarded for the current missing dates in August before the September blog prizes? I'm assuming the 4 chances in September will be for 4 weeks actually in Spetember, so was sort of hoping that there might be a chance or two to still win for reviews posted in august dates... Always worth asking!
