Other Free and Heavily Discounted Games:

The latest free games from Epic Games is Among the Sleep - Enhanced Edition - a first person horror adventure, in which you play a two year old child. After waking up in the middle of the night to mysterious sounds, you start exploring the dark looking for comfort. The game explores horror through atmosphere and exploration, not with scores and combat systems. In Among the Sleep you’re vulnerable, scared, and trying to make sense of the world.
Next Thursday from 4pm UK/11am Eastern we will be getting DARQ: Complete Edition - DARQ tells the story of Lloyd, a boy who becomes aware of the fact that he is dreaming. To Lloyd's misfortune, the dream quickly turns into a nightmare, and all attempts to wake up end in failure. While exploring the darkest corners of his subconscious, Lloyd learns how to survive the nightmare by bending the laws of physics and manipulating the fluid fabric of the dream world.

Indie Gala have added more games to their showcase section HERE, e.g. Colortone, Chop Chop Princess!, Renzo Racer (originally given away a couple of years ago, then removed from the freebies) and several others. Once added to your Indie Gala library, they will always be available to download; even when they have been removed from the free list. There are presently 107 DRM free games available to download from the showcase section. Please remember, you do need to create a free account before you can download these games.

You can usually find links to Steam and non Steam freebies via Delenn's threads over in the forums HERE (non-Steam) and HERE (Steam). Thanks a million for keeping these threads updated frequently Delenn, it's really appreciated by me and I'm sure many other community members.

The latest Humble Choice bundle unlocked on Tuesday 5th October last week; If you have the original subscription before it changed from the Humble Monthly to the Humble Choice bundle you get 12 games plus a DRM free indie arcade game called The Groundz (Set in a Oakland, CA circa 1993, The Groundz is a street dodge ball game where players smash on each other at Parks and Rec's and Youth Development Centers all across the city. Smash on opponents in a 2 vs. 2 with friends) and access to all the games in the Humble Trove while your subscription is live. The Humble Trove includes around 75+ titles. The DRM free titles you can download and keep forever. The other games in the Trove can be downloaded and played while your subscription is live. If you suspend a month you lose access to those games for that month. They are adding games to the Trove virtually every month. Here's just a few examples of what's included in the Trove. Race the Sun: Challenge Edition, Zodiac II, Volantia: Kingdom in the Sky, Shady Knight, 20 minute Metropolis, Keyboard Sports, When Ski Lifts Go Wrong (this is £14.99 on Steam, you get the DRM free copy, so can still play it if you suspend your subscription). Also includes Valhalla Hills (another Steam game worth £7.99, but you get the DRM free version), Broken Sword 5, Runestone Keeper, Bomber Crew, (another DRM free copy that is £14.99 on Steam), Drawkanoid (£3.99 on Steam), Actually quite a few of the games in the Trove are also on Steam, but you always get the DRM free version.

There are different subscriptions available, details of which you can find HERE.

If you subscribe, it doesn't tie you in to buy every monthly choice bundle. If you find the latest bundle isn't for you, just go to your account page and suspend that month. This has to be done for each months bundle if you don't want them before your subscription is due for that month. Apart from the amazing bargains found with these choice bundles; there is always at least one or two premium AAA games, plus several other AAA and high level indie arcade games included in each bundle.

This months bundle includes Amnesia: Rebirth, John Wick Hex, 112 Operator, Guts and Glory, Ring of Pain, Garage: Bad Trip, The Textorcist: The Story of Ray Bibbia, Tools Up, Hiveswap FriendSim, Black Future '88 and Syberia 3. (Not as inspiring as some of the previous bundles, but most of the games are still excellent.

The Humble bundle is offering the complete TheHunter: Call of the Wild package for £11 (usually £102). This is a game I've become very attached to over the past few months accruing almost 500 hours of game play; with 10 reserves to explore and hunt in; from America (Rocky Mountains, Leyton Lakes and the Yukon), Europe (Hirschfelden & Cuatro Colinas), Africa (Vurhongha Savanna), Russia (Medved Taiga), New Zealand (Te Awaroa)) and South America (Parque Fernando & Rancho Del Arroyo). There is a free version called TheHunter: Classic, that includes all of the reserves; and is nearly as good as Call of the Wild, but the graphic is slightly dated (for example the weapon animations and weapon skins don't look as real, compared to Call of the Wild. You can find the deal HERE
