I have six free games for you today, split between itch.io downloads and browser titles. Let's get right into what's available to claim and keep.

Three new downloads on itch.io

1565 - The Great Siege

1565 - The Great Siege is a retro-styled point-and-click comedy adventure set during the historical 1565 Great Siege of Malta. It's free to download on itch.io right now. The developer hasn't listed an expiration date, so it appears to be permanently free to keep. I want to see how closely it mimics the old LucasArts puzzle logic.

Abyssal Ascent

Abyssal Ascent is an arcade negative-gravity platformer where you guide a fragile bubble past marine hazards to reach the surface. You can grab it for free on itch.io. There's no set expiry date for this offer.

Eurasia Hauler

Eurasia Hauler: Crossroads Trucking

Eurasia Hauler is a trucking tycoon simulator that generates its road networks from real-world map data across Turkey. It's available for free on itch.io. The game has no listed expiration date and remains free to keep.

Three puzzles and MMOs for your browser

Cast Six

Cast Six is a daily movie-matching puzzle that asks you to fit six films into six overlapping categories. It's completely free to play directly in your web browser. The game is permanently free with no expiration date. I'm curious how difficult the daily boards get by the end of the week.

Douzle

Douzle is a daily guessing game built around the Eurovision Song Contest, covering every entry from 1956 to 2026. You can play it for free in your browser. The creator hasn't set an expiration date, making it permanently free.

Simseeder

Simseeder is a persistent-world MMO roguelike where players construct the objects and creatures that populate the map, and because the server starts completely empty, you have to hunt monsters just to find the seeds needed to build anything. It's free to play in your browser right now. The alpha is currently free with no listed end date.

Remember that free game offers are time-limited and can change without warning. Grab anything that looks interesting while it's still available.
