In addition, exclusive hats are awarded at various intervals of completion:

Trivia

• "Steam Gimme" was formerly known as "Sneak Peak". In order to achieve the objective originally, individuals needed to download and watch a trailer from each of the six listed games.
• The temporary "Question Mark" icon for the Hat of Undeniable Wealth And Respect was identical to what the mascot character 'Tappet' wore in one of the promotion's Steam Store banners.
