WHAT IS IT?
With the impending release of The Talos Principle in less than one month, we’re giving another opportunity for you to increase your chances to win a free copy of The Talos Principle. We want to spark the creativity within our community and see what ideas unfold.
This contest is organized by community members, for community members. We will be giving away two free copies of The Talos Principle to the best entries just in time for the game’s launch.
