Most of the time when I get a game for free I don't value it as much. There are some exceptions, I've gotten into a few giveaways like Dead Island 2 and Lord of the Rings Return to Moria.

But mostly I want gaming to be convenient. Steam is very convenient and has some really great sales. I recently found a space tower defense game I wanted to try and it was 0.79 on sale. Less than a dollar.

Which one? I love TD games

It's called Space Run. You have to make space ship runs and configure your ship for the best combination of speed, defense, and offense.

Thanks! I wishlisted it, any idea if it runs on the Steamdeck? It says unknown in the store

I have never played any of the free games I got on Epic. It happens regularly that I discover a game I bought on Steam, I already owned on Epic for years.

I don't care. The platform is bad, no one uses it, you can't out-Steam Steam.

The only platform I prefer to Steam is GOG. Fuck DRM.

I grab everything on Epic and use playnite to browse my collection.

I recently started playing Gravity Circuit and it is great!
