Refund a game where you receive card drops?
You can keep the game play for a couple of hours, but you’ll need to follow the rules. If you sell the cards before getting a refund, they might be taken away. It depends on the platform’s policies—check their terms first.
If you've been using Steam for about two weeks, it's possible the refund window has closed. I've only returned one game, and based on what I recall, it was either around 2 hours of play or 48 hours after purchase, whichever comes first. The exact duration isn't clear, but it seems you might not be eligible for a refund now. I'm guessing the best way to confirm is by testing...
Playtime is under two hours and it's been less than two weeks since you purchased it.
You might want to test it in a lower-cost game that releases cards regularly. It would be interesting to observe the outcome. I wouldn't be surprised if they have measures in place to encourage players to farm for cards and then reimburse them. I think a real human reviewer would examine the refund process to confirm everything is legitimate, as it typically takes about a day.
It really varies. I received a card drop in Borderlands 2 just 30 minutes after starting, even though I'd already played a free weekend version and could have refunded it.
The most recent refund process lasted around 20 minutes, possibly due to a slower day for refunds.
