Thanks, I had seven to add, and seem to have missed out on some others previously that are no longer available. Will need to keep a better eye on it.

GOG Connect is weird… it feels great to get free games! But then I remember they’re not really free games as I already have them.

I concur - you do need to give it about 15-20 mins tho, it takes a while for the “wow, they included THAT!?” or “wow, that’s actually quite clever” moments to start happening…

Geez. Even when Company of Heroes is given away free, it’s still not allowed in Japan. Sigh.
Sega(?) really don’t like the japanese market.

I’ve already redeemed mine, but maybe someone who owns the game already can get one for you?

I was browsing the RPS curator page and spotted Submerged for 90% off. Any second opinions?

But wait, what’s this? Dissent in the hivemind?

Don’t hesitate for a second at that price. I really enjoyed it.

For anyone who is an Amazon Prime/Twitch Prime subscriber, Superhot is currently free until the 24th December.

Ohhh. It’s that one… I keep thinking it’s Subnautica, or something under water.
That did look interesting, and it’s a pretty steep discount… tempting.

The gameplay is mostly pootling around a drowned city in a boat and climbing up buildings to find stuff. Very relaxing and quite pretty. I paid full price when it came out and don’t regret it, although YMMV.

Reasonably entertaining jump-scare-fest Layers of Fear is free on the Humble store.

Oxenfree for free on gog.com. If these sites keep giving away games at this rate I won’t have to buy any for years.

Oxenfree is wonderful, my favourite game last year.

Another freebie to add to the collection - Kingdom : Classic is free for 24 hours on Steam http://store.steampowered.com/app/368230/Kingdom_Classic/

There’s 70% off the upgrade to the “New Lands” version as well.

There’s not much to it. The climbing is,unfortunately, not at all interesting (literally just point joystick up) and the story is slight, to put it mildly. It’s not even all the pretty, IMO. I suppose that makes me the dissenter here, but even at $2 I regretted the purchase.

Ok, this is starting to get ridiculous… another giveaway, this time it’s Watchdogs - scroll down a bit to see it on this page:

https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/event/happy-playdays-2017/#freegame

They’ve also extended the Black Flag and World in Conflict giveaways which are also on that page.

vinraith 2017-12-19 20:43:35 UTC #39

Didn’t they already give away Watchdogs? Pretty sure I got it from them for free earlier this year.

Fumarole 2017-12-19 20:47:25 UTC #40

Yup, I got it free on November 10.
