The full prize list is as follows

• Football Manager 2019
• Two Point Hospital + Bigfoot Expansion
• Player Unknowns Battlegrounds + Vikendi Event Pass
• 2 Random Steam Keys (Will be selected at random from my random key giveaway list. While there are some good games like American Truck Simulator, Batman Arkham Asylum and South Park: Stick of Truth its mainly low-quality bargain bin content such as Zoo Park)

Prize Information

Football Manager 2019
​

In Football Manager 2019 YOU are the author of your club’s success: you define the tactics and style of play, and drive player recruitment to build the ultimate squad. You take an active role on the training ground, developing your squad and fine-tuning the preparations for upcoming matches.

Then, when Match Day arrives, you take your place on the touchline, overseeing proceedings as your players cross that magical white line. Now, your footballing vision is put to the test!

Will the perfect substitution or tactical tweak be the difference between an agonising defeat or an ecstatic victory?

​

• Test your skills in 50 of the biggest footballing countries
• Climb to the top of the table and beyond with any one of world’s top 2500 clubs
• Play the transfer market and scout more than 500,000 real players and staff
• Watch your unique football vision play-out on our acclaimed 3D engine

The Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2 are fully licensed and playable for season 2018/19 and give a very early flavour of what’s to come as we build towards kick-off on November 2nd.

In total, there are 26 fully-licensed league competitions from 11 countries as well as a host of individual club licences from some of the world’s biggest leagues, with more still to be confirmed.

Licensing updates along with new features and game upgrades will drop towards the end of September on our social channels, so get following now to get ahead of the game.

Two Point Hospital​

Design and build your own hospital!


Build up a hospital from nothing to a masterpiece as you design the most beautiful – or functional – healthcare operation in the whole of Two Point County.

Optimise your hospital design to increase patient (and cash) flow, arranging corridors, rooms and waiting areas to your exact specifications. Expand your hospital to multiple buildings as you look to get as many patients through the door as possible.

Place decorative and functional items around your hospital to improve its prestige, lower patient boredom, increase happiness and keep those end of year awards flowing in.

Cure unusual illnesses


Don’t expect Two Point County to be populated with your usual types of patients. In this world, you’ll experience all kinds of unusual illnesses; from Light-headedness to Cubism – each requiring their very own special type of treatment machine.

Diagnose illnesses, build the right rooms to handle them, hire the right staff, and then get ready, because curing just one of these illnesses is just the beginning. You can handle a single patient – but can you handle a Pandemic?

Once you’ve conquered an illness, research improved cures and machines and turn your hospital into an unstoppable healthcare juggernaut.

Improve and expand your hospital horizons!


Your first hospital is where it begins, but what next?
Once you’ve cured the residents of a small harbour village, can you take on a bigger challenge in a busier hospital?

Improve your facilities, upgrade machines, staff and layouts to make more money, more quickly.

Train and improve your staff, levelling them up with new skills and abilities to make your hospital even more efficient.

Make use of the extensive statistic and information screens to analyse your strengths and weaknesses, and make rapid alterations. Adjust the price of your treatments, keep an eye on your turnover, take out loans and optimise your earnings.

You’ll be managing staff with unique personality types and traits, so you’ll need to keep an eye on who’s being efficient – and who is just a pain in the neck. Balance your workforce with your ambitions as you strive to make a profit(and hopefully save some people along the way)

Two Point Hospital - Bigfoot expansion
​

Explore a new wintery region, featuring three brand new hospitals, 34 new region-specific illnesses (including 9 new visual illnesses), and a whole host of new in-game items. Local celebri-yeti Bartholomew F. Yeti, the otherwise reclusive furball, has been petitioning for better healthcare in the Pointy Mountains, home to the most frequently forgotten people in all of Two Point County. Mr Yeti will need your help, curing new illnesses such as Cold Shoulder, Bard Flu, and Aurora Snorealis!

PlayerUnknowns Battlegrounds​

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds a.k.a. PUBG is a PvP Battle Royale game. Each round starts with players scattered across a vast 8x8 km island. You have nothing but your wits at the beginning. To be the last man standing, each player has to find weapons and supplies to support them in tough fights and ruthless ambushes.

Co-developed by Brendan Greene (PLAYERUNKNOWN himself), the creator of the Battle Royale sub-genre, PUBG is an Unreal Engine 4.0 game that features a realistic, detailed world with fluid animations. Brendan Greene's experience in this new and captivating game mode enabled the developer team at Bluehole to perfect the genre with unique twists and tweaks.

PlayerUnknowns Battlegrounds - Survivor Pass: Vikendi​
