The Witness (from the creator of Braid) is now free on the Epic Store:
Some of the puzzles in this game are quite difficult. Unlike Braid, I haven’t finished this one as I didn’t find it as inventive, but it’s never too late to return to it.
Given the recent disaster at Notre Dame, Ubisoft have made Assassin’s Creed Unity free on Uplay:
Transistor is free on the Epic Store.
I haven’t played this one properly yet, but I enjoyed Super Giant’s previous title Bastion which featured a real time narration to match the action on screen (in my view, a great innovation in game storytelling).
Transistor is a fun game. I honestly still enjoyed Bastion a bit more, but they are both visually beautiful games with engaging, and odd, stories. That it is free is amazing!
World of Goo (a unique, structure building puzzle game - I recommend trying it).
I haven’t posted here in a while. There’s been so many free games on the Epic Store, it’s worth regularly checking it. For example, Abzu is free right now.
Sonic 2 is free on Steam at the moment. Classic game.
Mechwarrior 4 is free on big websites like CHIP and many more (found out when I couldn’t find it on steam so I browsed the web)

And Locomalito’s Hydorah & Maldita Castilla (which got commercial Super/EX versions) among others.
Edit: I was sure I’ve posted about such games before in general but forgotten the names of many of them I no longer have installed so I figured I’d google search for my common nick name + free games to see if I can find them on some random forum. Yeah I found them on this forum, lol! Many links might be broken but you could google for the game names mentioned instead I guess. Others are sadly lost because no name was mentioned, just the genre/description, or a now defunct developer site with many games was linked.
Edit: just noticed this thread contrary to the last posts says for “digital platforms” like I guess Steam and gog so many of these don’t qualify. Phantom Dust does. And the pos EGS has free games constantly. Gog has freebies too but most (all?) of them were free anyway. Not sure if they have more outside this bundle.
Quite an impressive selection of free games will be coming to PlayStation later this month and in April. While free games are more common on open platforms, on consoles they’re a rarer.
