Telltale Games

Hi,

I found your gift store via Google:

http://www.telltalegames.com/store/gifts

As this page cannot be reached via the regular store (maybe I am blind) and the design ist very christmassy, I wonder, if the gift function still works.

Basically, it's just bundles which you can either choose to send to their house or (more preferrably) buy and give to them when it arrives at your house.

Like the Strong Bad's Extended Playlist, only on a snazzy page. These bundles should actually be advertised more, they're pretty cool.

I answered the question by myself: It does not work anymore!!! I bought a season pack, but instead of receiving a gift code (as described on the page), the games were added to the "Your games" section of my Telltale account. I already wrote a mail to the support concerning this

I did not know about the gift store not working anymore (or still existing, for that matter), but the best way to buy Telltale games as gifts at this time is to check the "I'm buying this game as a gift for someone else" box in your shopping cart.
Sorry you had to find out the hard way (I'm sure Telltale will take care of your problem).

Unfortunately the "I'm buying this game as a gift for someone else" box was definitely not available.

First, I'd like to thank knechtodawas for bringing this to our attention. This gift site was meant to exist only as a limited-time promotion type thing during the holidays and was never taken down. While all incoming links to the page were removed, Google must have taken a liking to it and continued sending folks there. That said, the page has been taken down now and sorry for any confusion.

knechtodawas, I will PM you directly about your issue and see if we can't get you back on track!

Thanks again!
