Sausage Hunter is a 2D action-platformer where you play as a kitten armed with a blaster. It's currently 100% free to claim and keep on IndieGala as part of their DRM-free galaFreebies program. There is no set expiration date, but these showcase freebies usually rotate out quickly.

Flappy Bird Remake

Flappy Bird Remake by Mr Vegies brings the infamous one-button obstacle course to modern web browsers. It's permanently free to play and download on itch.io. I want to see whether the collision detection feels as punishing as the 2013 original.

iOS

Dusk Climber

Dusk Climber is a one-finger vertical climbing arcade game that just launched on iOS. It's free to download permanently, and it includes optional cosmetic purchases. The swipe-to-aim mechanics look like a solid fit for playing on a phone during a commute.

Unlock Animal

Unlock Animal is a grid-based logic puzzle where you rotate arrows to guide animals to their food. It's free to download on the App Store right now. The game includes hundreds of levels and a timed mode if you want to stress yourself out over virtual carrots.

Browser Games

Mythio

Mythio is a text-to-3D game generator that builds playable levels based on your prompts. It's permanently free to play in your browser. You just type a scenario like "escape a burning city" and it generates a custom obstacle course.

History Streak

History Streak is a daily timeline puzzle game that drops you into a historical moment and asks you to guess the year. It's free to play directly in your browser with no account required. It feels like GeoGuessr, but for time instead of geography.

HypeStreet

HypeStreet is a fantasy stock market simulator. It's free to play in your browser right now. You buy and sell virtual shares based on real-world trends without risking actual money.

Cardculate

Cardculate is a daily math and card game where you use numbered cards and operators to reach a target value. It's free to play in your browser. There's also an endless mode if you burn through the daily puzzle too fast.

Move to Door

Move to Door is available in your browser. It's a retro-style trap platformer where the floor regularly lies to you, and it's permanently free to play. The entire premise is built around trial and error, so expect to die a lot.

Remember that storefront giveaways can end without warning. Grab anything that looks interesting before the price goes back up.
