Welcome to The GameTZ Game Club! This is my attempt at forming an easy to get into book club type thing, but with games! Anybody, and everybody, is welcome to join in on the fun!

Rules:

- Each month a random game will be chosen, by myself, for the club to play. Games can vary from the beginning of gaming onward to current-generation platforms. There are no limitations!

- You have from the 1st of every month to 11:59PM EST of the final day to complete the designated game. 100% completion isn't required. The point of the club is to provoke game discussion, as well as give GameTZ veterans and new users a place to mingle!]

- For every game completed, post a picture as proof of your completion Example. This is essential in order to receive your badge and entry to the monthly raffle.

- You will be awarded with a badge each month you complete the game. All badges will be proudly displayed next to your name in the original post. As long as you "roll credits" the game is considered beaten!

- Some months will feature prizes! Every user to complete the game of the month will be thrown into a drawing to win prizes! Users will be assigned a number and users will be randomly generated at some point the following month.

- Prizes will vary. Prizes will beon a donation basis by either me or another member. Sometimes physical, sometimes digital. If you would like to contribute, drop me a message.

- If you don't own the game, and you have access to it on another platform, you're welcome to play it that way. Just make sure that it's the same version, to qualify for the prize or badge.

- If you do not want to participate in the games, but would like to join in on the conversations, please do!

- If you would like to join, just post here, and I'll add you to the list of users. If you have any questions, comments, concerns, or criticism, please don't hesitate to post them!

It's been too long since I've beaten a game for this thread.

Not counting PC, is the game a specific console exclusive?

Oh please not Cuphead. That game nearly gave me carpal tunnel by the time I beat it last year. It’s hard enough on simple mode, but then you have to raise the difficulty and beat everything on regular mode to be able to unlock the last area (Inkwell Hell) and roll the credits. Some of the bosses on regular took me literally hundreds of attempts before I beat them. The final bosses (and some of the ones before you get there) are brutal.

I'm only still on the first island/area in Cuphead after buying it early last year but sucking at it. So I would be up for giving it some more attention, though I suspect that I might not complete it in the month because I stunk at it.

Next month was recommended in by @EB who has also kindly offered to give away a $10 gift card to one lucky participant who collects the Cuphead badge.

I myself never actually finished it either, and I've always felt shameful because of it. While I don't include myself in the prize raffle, since I'm the host, I am looking forward to trying to play through it again and actually finish it!

Cuphead is one of those games where the more you play the angrier and worse you get. I’ve Gotta set an attempt / night limit on those for me to succeed.

I never finished it either. Around the time it released on Switch the dev team said they were going to patch in Xbox Live achievement support into the Switch version, so I set the game aside expecting them to follow through on it. Nearly four years later and they have never mentioned it again. I'm fine playing it without achievements, it just would have been nice to have something to show for completing a ridiculously hard game, but I still never went back because I was sidetracked by so many other games in the meantime.
