You have to login to your Uplay account each day to claim your prize but don't get too excited yet - most of stuff are useless crap (cards, gifs, wallpapers, etc...) except for a few notable days: Day 1 (today) 11/24 - Rayman Classic for Android/iOS Day 14 12/07 - Assassin's Creed 3 Day 16 12/09 - 300 games giveaway (latest titles, 1st come 1st serve) Day 22 12/15 - Prince of Persia Day 23 12/16 - Rayman Legends Day 24 12/17 - Splinter Cell Day 25 12/18 - The Crew Except for Rayman and AC3 these are all games that have previously been available for free, if you missed them here's your chance again. There's also a good chance that they will change the giveaway contents and/or dates since this has been leaked and it was supposed to be a surprise so check daily just in case. Most offers will start at 9.00 CET (GMT/UTC +1) or 3:00AM EST. Some might start later (11.00 or 16.00 CET). Have fun and happy turkey day yall. https://30days.ubi.com/Promotion/Calendar/

I might graciously donate a few myself but I don't buy that many bundles or repeats anymore because my backlog is already pretty ridiculous (30 games or so). And now that I've just purchased Hitman and Civ 6 things are bound to get even worse :( First world problems :)

This appears to actually being given away as be part of the monthly UBI30 promotion, so it should be valid for the next month. Which is fortunate because UbiSoft's servers seem to me massively overloaded at the moment.

I hope it's just a glitch on their web code and I'll be able to see them again once the client is up and running again.

Yeah, it seems they finally got their shit together. If this is any indication their servers are going to implode in two days time, when they are supposed to give away 300 triple A titles on a first come first serve basis. I won't even bother trying, their latest games are all basically the same anyway.
