Does anyone recommend some freeware games? I'll list what I have with a sentence or two.
5 Days a Stranger- It's a basic Point and Click Adventure, nothing too special. It's fun if you enjoy pixel hunting.
7 Days a Skeptic- Another Point and Click, but in spaaaaaaace (Huh, apparently this was made by Yahtzee, and I got this was when I thought of Yahtzee was only a game; 5days was probably made by Yahtzee as well, they are very similar).
Ahriman's Prohecy- A WRPG, nothing too special about this one either, but it's still fun.
Alter Aila- A Chrono Trigger-esk JRPG. It's a good time waster.
Anacreon 2- It's a turn based strategy where you take over planets, mass armies, and form alliances. It's not graphical in the least.
Battle for Wesnoth- A fantasy turn based strategy game. This is truly a great game, everyone should get it regardless if they like freeware or not.
Battle City- This reminds me of Bomberman for some reason, but you don't use bombs, you protect a treasure chest from terrorists by getting them drunk and shooting them (no really).
Battleships Forever- A real time strategy, nothing in depth or anything, but a lot of fun watching ships blow up.
Conquest of Elysium- This is abondonware, but it's too good of a game to ignore. It's a basic strategy game, build units and send them to their death; but there are 8 very different races and it's a very good (however old).
Domination- It's freeware Risk, nothing more, nothing less.
Doom Rougelike- It's exactly what you expect it to be, but in all it's ASCII goodness.
Dragon Fantasy Remake- It's a JRPG, and that's enough for me.
Dragon Fantasy 2- See above, it's the second one.
Dungeon Crawl- Massive dungeon crawler, so have fun with that learning curve
Exit Fate- Amazing JRPG, it's a lot better than the other JRPG's I've listed. Check it out, now.
Free Civ- It's the freeware version of Civilization, nothing new.
GENETOS- Top down shooter with a surprisingly good story (weird, I know)
I Wanna Be the Guy- I'm sure you all have heard of this one, a mean platformer.
I Wanna Save the Kids- Remember "Lemmings"? Same thing but mean.
Knytt Stories- A Metrovania-esk platforme... you know all that buy know. It's a nice game.
Lost in the Knightmare- Point and Click Adventure, but kinda scary.
Lost Labyrinth- Dungeon Crawler with a twist, you actually get to pick what kind of player you want to be, not whatever falls on your head and then run with it.
Net Hack- One of the most known Dungeon Crawlers (an oxymoron, I know); it's what you would expect out of it.
Cave Story- Yeah, if you haven't heard of this one.... I don't believe you.
POWDER- One of my favorite Dungeon Crawler; it has an inventory system that actually makes sense(!), instead of making one key for one item, you click on the item and it gives you a list of what to do with it! It's amazing! The skill based-learning isn't anything new, but the Gods do make things interesting.
The Powder Toy- I hesitantly call this one a "game", it's a game like Minecraft is a game.
Runman- A cute (and I mean it, just go to their website) platformer, but gets hard later on.
Singularity- A game where you grow an empire while hiding from the government. It has no graphics, and can be incredibly hard.
The Spirit Engine 2- A well polished RPG with one of the best storylines I have seen and the absolute best music I have ever heard (I still love the clicking noise when you press a button, it's that good).
Transcendence- There's not much I can say about this aside from it is god-like. I can only think of it as an Action Dungeon Crawler in space.
Warning Forever- A Japanese Shooter that I swear I will beat some day.
Soo... does anyone have something else to add?
And before anyone asks, I wrote all that out and did not steal a word.
