Everyone has felt the sting of buying a game at full price only to have it disappoint, but any game of any size is worth trying when it comes at the price of free. Steam He seems to have embraced this philosophy even more recently. While its Epic Games Store competition gave away free games every Thursday (and sometimes more often), Steam was a little less reliable. Still, this year has seemingly seen an increase in the number of games it releases for free for a limited time, and many games that are always free or free-to-play have also hit the store.
Right now, the latest Steam deals are only free games. Players can claim them now, completely free, and will be able to do so while they are available in the storefront. While they all have the benefit of being free, there's also a nice variety if one feels the need to buy them all anyway.
New free games on Steam include Galactic brawla multiplayer brawler described as “absurd”; The witch you wanta game about running a witch potions shop; The Empathy Algorithma visual novel about an Android conversation; Cell Chemista physics-based sandbox game where players combine cells; DJ BunnyA 2D adventure game where players create songs for a festival; Another day with youan adventure game with lots of mini-games where players explore the city for a date; and Plantan interactive narrative game about a researcher and their experimental plant.
