[Android] Lara Croft GO, Hitman GO and Deus Ex go free @Amazon Underground

All I literally find is "Uninstall it, try one of these 4 download options" on Amazon, I'm guessing it's just a region lock because I'm a Swede :p
I'm in Sweden and I have Underground. Make sure you go into your Android settings and enable non-trusted sources for apps.
 
I can install the app just fine, but the app doesn't recognize itself as AU lol.

Huh. I remember going through a lot of trouble to get Amazon Coins working for me so maybe it was something else I did then.

Try migrating to another Amazon region ("Manage Your Content and Devices" on the homepage),
and
Add a _real_ address for that region (say, an Amazon warehouse...) and set it as your default payment option.
 
What is Amazon Underground and why are they giving me free games?

Google tells me it's a shop where everything is free
🤔
 
Canadian here, made an American account with american address, signed in with that and had no issues.
Used Tunnel Bear (phone VPN) to start the downloads just in case, maybe try that too? Not sure if it's necessary though.
Hitman GO didn't show as free.
 
Can't grab them, Amazon Underground app tells me to install the Amazon Underground app to get the deals lol. Uninstalled several times

Same here (I'm in Sweden as well). I have a Amazon account with a US address, so either it's a geo block or a bug.
 
Thanks OP for the heads-up. ;)

Any idea why there are two version of Hitman Go on Amazon? One is free, is called Hitman Go Underground and it seems to be version 1.12. The other one costs around 2 dollars and it's version 1.4. Not a biggie, just curious about what's missing from the free game.

Quality post, will definitely look into that tonight.

Thanks for that!
 
Thanks for letting me know, have platted Lara Croft and Hitman Go on the vita but will get some practise in for the Deus Ex port that will come at next years psx hopefully! Well maybe now Greg Miller is dating the brand manger there it might come a bit quicker as Kevin will hassle her for it :)
 
Amazon Underground is great.

They're competing with the Play store by giving things away or giving massive discounts on stuff, which is fine by me.

Buying Hearthstone packs through Amazon Underground has probably saved me ÂŁ100 already.

Hold up. I have underground. Is this only for US???

I'm in the UK

Works in the UK
 
Anyone know if this works in the Netherlands? Amazon stuff usually doesn't and installing Underground seems like it's a bit of a hassle. It would be nice though, those are some neat games I wouldn't mind picking up for free.
 
Nice one OP. Grabbed the 3 GO games and a few choice others as well. Time to dust my Kindle off.

Oh Monument Valley is great for anyone who's not played it yet.
 
I tried it, but I can't seem to get it to work. Installed Underground through the e-mail link Amazon gave me. For some reason it defaulted to German, but after installing I could switch it UK (English). There's no Dutch store, but according to their help page Netherlands should be eligible to shop for apps on it.

However, for whatever reason, I can download none of these Underground apps. The "Get" button seems to have disappeared (though it's there for other apps...). No idea what I can do here to make it work.

So now I have 2 Amazon Apps on my device (one came with my pre-installed with my phone (f'n bloatware), but doesn't have Underground) that are pretty much identical and I still got no free games!

Seriously though, anyone have any idea what I can do or am I just out of luck? Thanks for the help.
 
App has them listed as downloading but nothing is happening. Can't find a way to cancel and try again.
For this you need to the appstore again, search for the game's store page and you will have the option to cancel it there.

...Yeah, their app is far from being intuitive. Not very stable either.
