I ask this before (somewhere?) but most suggest paid games for some reason, im not sure why.
are there some free games from itch or steam to play when one has freetime to do things? and someday i might start recording gamplay videos, maybe it really depends on how life goes.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly a sand-box survival FPS RPG set in a sci-fi version chernobyl, the game is actually a mod of the original S.T.A.L.K.E.R. trilogy games, which are loosely based on the novel Roadside Picnic (1972) and film “stalker” (1979). go check them out if you’re interested or, just go blind in, it’s tons of fun if you like this kind of stuff
Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a great roguelike.
Tried this because of your comment. It’s really fun!
Mindustry is definitely must try if you like factory and tower defense elements. It’s free on itchi io and its available on f droid as well. The steam version is paid but it’s just a way to support the dev so you’re not missing out on any game feature. Has cross platform multiplayer as well with a lot of public servers you can jump in once you understand how to play the game.
I mean, just get the free game every week on the epic game store. That should cover all your free games gaming needs
If you like music, there are a bunch of good free rhythm games:
- Osu
- Stepmania/DDR - Main modern versions are Project Outfox and ITGmania
- IIDX/BMS - Beatoraja, heres a good English guide to it
- Neat thing about BMS is that all of the music is made or licensed/allowed for it. The community is strictly against charting copyrighted songs, partially due to them requiring keysounding.
- Sound Voltex - Untitled SDVX Clone
- Guitar Hero - Clone Hero
Note that some of these require or are improved by an additional controller, so they’re not entirely free but once you have what you need you’re set.
Warframe is free to play and nothing is locked behind money. it’s got a really steep learning curve but pushing past it is well worth it.
OpenTTD. May need some learning but it’s really fun and addictive if you’re into tycoons
Trackmania 2020, you can do the seasonal campaign, ranked and royal for free, and it’s a fun as hell game with a great community. There’s more if you pay, but theres many hours of game play for free and it isn’t time limited at all.
Does require ubisoft connect, but that’s also free.
