2024 Community game-Along masteR LIST
Since 2014, the Community Game-Along event has hosted and promoted by Chic Pixel's Anne Lee as a way to clear out your backlog of games, to promote under-appreciated genres/creators, to amplify gamers of all backgrounds, or a combination of the above.
​
To participate in the monthly Game-Along, just pick at least one game that fits the theme to play during the month. After that, the rest is up to you. Stream it, record it, write about it, or simply talk about it. Use the currently active hashtag, and the game you play, as well as your way of promoting that game will be showcased here.
​
At the end of the month, a review round-up will be posted summarizing all of that theme's posts/events in one convenient location. All in all, the Community Game-Along is about having fun, and bringing different gaming communities together!
​
You can also join the Community Game-Along on the Chic Pixel Discord, the event's official home. All you have to do is fill out this form, and our founder Anne will send you official invite if you are trustworthy enough -.^
