Layers of Fear is free on Steam for two days.

[Driderman]

I got a GOG key for Sunless Sea. Already got it for Steam so no need for a double. First come, first served.

[Sian]

I'll take it :)

[Driderman]

I'll take it :)

Eh, apparently the key was only valid for the rest of their Summer Sale, which had like 5 hours left when I noticed it

Sorry!

Shadowrun Returns is free on Humble for two days. I highly recommend this game, it’s great. Not quite as good as Dragonfall or Hong Kong, but still. Go try it.

Life is Strange Episode 1 is available on Steam for free, but I can't see how long the offer is open for.

Looking at the description on the side, I think it's free in general.

I think this is the way it is, because part 1 is also free on the PS4.

Hacknet is free on Steam until 10:00 Pacific Time today (~3.5hrs from time of this posting).

There's a bunch of free games on Twitch right now, including Obsidian's Tyranny, Brutal Legend, Strafe, Clustertruck and Tales from the Borderlands. (Some of those might have expired, I can't tell because I've been grabbing them as they came up.)

Isn't that only for twitch prime members?

Whoops it sure is. Please disregard.

Gun of Icarus is currently free in Humble. It seems it is some kind of online multi-player, so I'll give it a pass, but it might be of interest to someone else here.

Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising is free to own on Game Sessions if you play it for 5 minutes.

Edit: Oops, valid until 05 Sep 18.

Man, I wish my friends were into Guns of Icarus (and my computer could run it better). Multiplayer derigible dog-fighting, where people can adopt different roles. Your pilot was the best man for flying the ship, but could fire the guns or make repairs in a pinch. The Engineer was the best at maintaining structural integrity, and the gunner got the most out of the weapons.

Biggest drawback is that the game wasn't new player friendly, as it was strictly random matchmaking, and most of the opponents have been dedicated to the game for awhile.

Insurgency free on Steam for around 24h from time of posting, install and play to keep.

[Grey_Wolf_c]

Orwell is free on Humble while supplies last, or for about a day and a half (whichever comes first, I'd imagine). Orwell is a narrative-focused sort-of Point and Click game.

For Honor Starter Edition is free to keep on Uplay if you claim it before next Monday (18th June 2018).

It's also free on Humble Bundle ATM, though I'm hesitant to recommend it; buying Starter Edition Ubisoft games permanently ****s you. It takes longer to unlock anything and it's impossible to pay later to upgrade to the full version of the game. You're stuck.

For Honor's a pretty good game though.

Warhammer: Space Marine is free for the next two days, on the condition that you get the Humble Bundle newsletter.

Looks like you have to be subscribed to the Humble Monthly Bundle for those games to be free.

I was able to download one without having paid this month's fee, but I'm not sure if that option would be available to anyone that hasn't ever paid for at least one month. That said, I think it more likely you need an account with Humble, and I do believe that is free.

I would assume you do need a Humble account, but I’ve never had a paid subscription and I was able to download all 9. I think the giveaway might have ended by now, though.

Actually no - there was a whole host of games that were free if you were subscribed to he monthly package, but those 9 games specifically were free with only a Humble account (I snagged the couple that I was interested in and I've never been subscribed).

I do admit it wasn't very clear - there was a slight difference in the banner at the bottom of the game picture.

Alrighty then, thanks for the heads up!

GoG is giving away a handful of free games after a successful Twitter retweet gimmick:

Shadow Warrior Classic (Doom-era FPS)
Bio-Menace (CONTRA-esque side scrolling shooter)
Tyrian 2000 (Top-down bullet-hell)
Stargunner (Side-scrolling bullet hell)

Not exactly classics, but for the price of 1,000 retweets it could have been worse, or at least, way less generous.

[rooster707]

Orwell is free on Steam today.

Also, GOG is doing a giveaway tomorrow - either Shadow Warrior 2, Superhot, or Firewatch, depending on what the community decides. You can vote here.

Shadow Warrior got picked, and it’ll be free for the next two days.

Curses. I'd been hoping for Super Hot.
