The Puzzles Fantastic:
Please see the introduction at the top of the page (below the download button) for information about todays giveaway. The puzzles look really easy, with only 12 elements to ten images. It took me less than seven minutes to complete the six images below and I was screen capturing and saving the captures while completing the puzzles.

The theme looks interesting (Sci Fi is a favourite of mine, so I'm biased). With so few elements this puzzle is likely to be okay for Children ages 4 to 7. As an adult you should easily complete each of the puzzles in around a minute. They are made easier because when you click on the elements they move to the correct orientation immediately and will lock into place once put in the correct grid section. Once you've completed the puzzle, a camera symbol appears on the left hand side. This enables you to take a screen capture of the finished image. There's no timer and, unlike previous puzzles we've received by other developers (i.e. Uniden and GameRea), these puzzles by the developer robot8784 does not progress to the next puzzle in the level sequence. You have to press the back button to return to the level screen. There's no sneak peek of the completed image once you've opened the puzzle; you can only see the thumbnail images within the level selection screen before you select the puzzle.

Notes on Security

I scanned a zipped copy of the installed game using Virus Total and it found zero hits from 61 antimalware engines.

The downloaded executable 'may' include some low level adware that only opens your browser once to Falcoware's home page after the game has installed and also places four shortcuts onto your desktop (which can be safely deleted once the game has installed).

The installation does NOT inject any malware into your system. When your browser is opened to Falcoware's home page following the games installation, it earns Falcoware games some money, part of which is given to the developer of the game for allowing the game to be given away free. Once you've installed the game, there are no more browser redirections. This is because Falcoware removed their installer over a year ago (that installer would show an advert for a game and then open your browser each time you played and then closed the game down.)

You can see the results of the scan via the following link:

Whiterabbit-uk,

Other Free Games:

For other free games, please check Delenn's threads over in the giveaway forums HERE (non Steam games) and HERE (Steam games) for the latest freebies; it's kept up to date frequently, whenever a free game becomes available, (thanks for keeping this up to date Delenn, very much appreciated).

Also for the latest Steam sales check THIS Steam database site out. You can list the games in 'price' & 'percentage off' by clicking the headers. If you link SteamDB with your Steam account, all games that you already have will be highlighted in green and those in blue are on your wish list. When there are Steam games being given away, you'll see the percentage off as 100%. It's worth checking this regularly to make sure you don't miss the best deals and freebies. Delenn usually posts links to all free games within several hours of them going live, so check her links at the top of this comment as well.

Don't forget to check Indie Gala's freebie section HERE, then click on the Showcase header, selecting freebies from the drop down menu; the most recent additions include:

1) ... Six Sides of the World (a puzzle videogame that takes you into an intergalactic journey through different star systems riddled with brain-racking challenges)

2) ... Byte Family (this one was given away previously, but was then removed from the free section, another chance to grab) it - Overcome obstacles and restore the cyber world Byte Family, eliminating the system virus, unlocking new game modes and gaining new skills!

3) ... Avani: The Primal Land (Explore, gather, learn, craft and build in the world of Avani: The Primal Land. Fight, hunt and tame wild animals. Animals have their own genetics and no animal is like the other. The interactive taming process allows making a real bond with each tame. Avani offers a unique crafting system combined with a huge skill tree and an intuitive building system mixed with traditional survival game elements)

4) ... Cov Shooter (Try to survive as many waves as possible, upgrade your stats and weapons to do that)

5) ... Garfield Kart (a family oriented racing game with cartoon like graphics)

6) ... Nostradamus the Last Prophecy, (a point and click mystery adventure)

The following (previously) free games have now been removed from the free library: Snowball, Pixel Puzzles 2: Christmas , Die Young (Full version), Distortions, Dino Run DX, Cheap Golf, Kill Em All, Dead Hungry Diner, and Contract with the Devil. All remaining freebies can be found in the showcase section (112 games are available). Not all games that go into the showcase remain free and are removed after a short period; so, you should grab them as soon as you can.

The latest free game from Epic is a repeat called Galactic Civilization III that was originally given away last year on the 22nd Jan 2021; so, if you missed it back then here's your opportunity to grab it now. :) - Build a civilization that will stand the test of time! Choose from dozens of unique races and make a name for yourself across the galaxy through diplomacy, espionage, technological advances, and more.

Next Thursday the 20th January at 4pm UK/11am Eastern we will be getting Relicta a first-person physics-based puzzle game where you need to creatively combine magnetism and gravity to unravel the secrets of Chandra Base. Play as a top physicist stranded on an eerie, derelict Moon base. Find your way around the enigmatic, terraformed craters by bending gravity and magnetism to your will in order to solve physical puzzles. Will you rush straight ahead and try to reach safety - or will you take your time to gather clues and unravel the intrigues of 22nd century orbital politics? Buried in the eternal darkness of the lunar craters lies a secret that might claim your daughter’s life - or change the fate of humanity forever. Are you ready to face the ultimate consequences of your research?

The best Indie Bundles sites that have been operating from around 2011 are the Humble Bundle and Indie Gala sites (though the latter isn't as good as it used to be) where you'll sometimes find decent bundles with over 90% off the usual price of the games included in the bundles. The Humble site is in my opinion the best; though a more recent addition that is worth checking out called Fanatical games looks to be a serious contender for that title as they have some very good bundles. You can find Fanatical games (that used to be called Bundle stars) HERE.

I've restarted a project I originally started back in 2008 that used to be called Good Games to Grab, where I posted free games over in the forums on a daily basis. I won't be posting them daily this time; only as and when I have time and the inclination. You can find the new forum section entitled 'Free Game Project' HERE

So far I've posted two excellent games i.e. Hidden & Dangerous Deluxe (a squad based solo shooter) and Battlegroup 44 (a free standing mod for Battlefield 2 that is a follow up to the original Battlefield 1942). Plus, I've moved over to the new forum, a couple of games from a failed restart of this project from just before the pandemic; (one of my favourite breakouts called Breakquest and an android game called Messy Paths).

Yesterdays free game Black And White Apocalypse by the developer hammergames is apparently always free and can also be downloaded as a colour version. The community member Space pointed this out yesterday. You can find both versions over on itch.io via the following links. Black & White version, and Coloured version. :)

You can find all nine of the developers games HERE; all of the ones I've so far checked are also free. Some of them look like they are worth investigating. :)

Stay safe everyone.

Whiterabbit-uk,

Whiterabbit-uk, I'm trying to uninstall this program but can't find where it's installed. Geek Uninstaller highlights all new programs but can't find this one. I've looked in Program Files and Program Files (x860) but it's not there. Can you tell me how to uninstall? Thank you!

Reynaldo,

Unfortunately I cannot because I always change the install path for all games to a different drive that I use specifically for games. I don't take any notice of where the weekday games go becasue of this.

When the next one from Falcoware is given away (sometime next week), I'll keep my eyes open and see if I can help then.

I figured out what the problem was. Comodo Internet Security, in an effort to protect my computer, installed the application in VTRoot folder. After unblocking the application in Comodo, I was unable to install.
