I normally don't write about games where you need to jump through hoops to get games, I find it rather scummy...

Going to make an exception in this case, since this is one of those barely remembered classics that just got passed over in the pre-Internet age, and I have a lot of respect for Rebelion the studio. They're... odd, and generally do their own thing. A refreshing rarity for a AA studio their size.

Heard some mixed things, but it's a very pretty little sports game. Definitively not flawless by any means, but there's some cool design stuff and locals in this game.

Free over on Uplay until the 23th. Just open the client, and there should be a pop-up near the top.

Heard great things about this one, though haven't played it myself.

(Can recommend that channel too, funny and insightful guy. Has pointed me towards some real hidden gems.)

Offer valid for ~72 hours.

Cross post from Discord:

Microids are giving away both Syberia 1 & 2 to hype up a forth sequel I had no idea was in-coming.

Pretty decent Adventure games. Used to be some of the prettiest in the whole genera, and I've heard some good things.

Basically, what if Ikaruga was a platformer?

IE, you have a Dark mode and a Light mode, and are immune against each element while using it, but need to be off the opposite element to damage enemies.

Been on my radar for a bit, so color me (badabom, tish ) intrigued.

Walking sim, horror hybrid. Got some decent reviews back in the day, but it's aged a bit badly in parts.

(Read: it's a walking sim.)

Link. Offer valid until the forth.

Doubt this one needs much of an introduction. The original was the one game that exploded into our hearts like a blood sausage, and went on to inspire the entire Fallout series.

Haven't played #2 myself, but I've heard good things.

Offer valid for ~24 hours from posting this.

4 player party game where you steal the other players heads. Just launched this November, too.

Artstyle is pretty cool, if nothing else.

Just remember: No LARP-ing!

Don't think I've heard of this one, but looks like a decent FPS.

Link.

Offer valid for the next 48-ish hours or so, so nab it quick if it looks like your type of thing.

Heard really good things about this one!

Short version: Left 4 Dead, but against rat people in a fantasy setting, instead of zombies.

Offer valid until the 7th.

Thanks to https://www.fimfiction.net/user/199165/ZeroOneInFinn for the info.

Made by the legendary Westwood Studios, Nox is an often forgotten Diabo clone.

A really, really, really good Diablo clone that didn't sell a thousenth of what it deserved due to bad PR at launch. One of those sad, near text book cases of the good word of mouth having done the rounds only when the physical copies where all off the shelves already.

Don't know much about this one, but I've heard it described as one of those games you either love and play two hundred hours easy... or recoil in disgust hissing like a cat five minutes in.

So, yeah. Anyway, can't argue with free, and the offer lasts this weekend out.

Link.

On phone due to minor PC upgrade, will be brief.

In celebration of its twentieth anniversary (!), the game and expansion will be free for abouth twenty four hours.

This was a PC melter back in the day, the Crysis of it's time. One of the first games REQUIRING a graphics-card, even.

Don't usually like to talk about the humble bundle ones since I feel they've got a few more hoops to jump through then any Steam giveaway, but this one cough my eye. Never finished the original since it was such an infamous resource-hog, but I do remember my jaw frequently dropping at the graphics.

I mean, just look at this:

For Assassins Creed: Can't-be-arsed-to-check- the-actual-name,-but-the-latest-Greek-themed-one. The first DLC.

Don't even need the base game. Just log into Uplay, click the link, and redeem.

Big on Ubisoft, considering how near universally the praise has been for AC: CBATCANBLGTO has been. Offer valid until the first.

Never heard about this one, some sort of multiplayer assassins game? 8 players, where each person has a target they need to find among the NPCs, I think?

Going to be honest, not really my cup of Joe. Art looks pretty cool, though.

Offer valid until Monday, so be sure to check it out if it does seems your type of thing.

Don't know much about this game, but it's by the same gang that made Myst and Riven: The Sequel To Myst.

...That's... quite the pedigree, as far as a certain brand of adventure games is concerned. No idea if Abduction actually lives up to those standards... buy hey, free is a pretty decent price-point to find that out at yourself, ja?

Offer valid for 48 hours.

Wasn't really interested when this was new, but I've heard it's one of those games that's received so much post-launch polish it's near unrecognizable.

For a limited time only, so nab it while it lasts.
