Prey
The space station has been overrun by hostile aliens and you are now being hunted. As you dig into the dark secrets of Talos I and your own past, you must survive using the tools found on the station -- your wits, weapons, and mind-bending abilities. The fate of the Talos I and everyone aboard is in your hands.
Sci-fi Thriller
Nothing is as it seems aboard Talos I. As Morgan Yu, set out to unravel the clues you've left behind for yourself, and discover the truth about your past. What role will you play in TranStar’s plans, and the mysterious threat ravaging the station?
Singular Setting
Orbiting the Moon, the Talos I space station symbolizes the height of private space enterprise. Explore a lavish craft designed to reflect corporate luxury of the 1960s, and navigate interconnected, non-linear pathways built to hide countless secrets.
Unimaginable Threat
The shadowy extraterrestrial presence infesting Talos I is a living ecology bent on annihilating its prey. It’s up to you, one of the last remaining survivors aboard the station, to end the deadly attack of these haunting predators.
Play Your Way
Gain alien abilities to develop a distinct combination of powers and upgrade your unique skills. Craft increasingly useful items with the blueprints, gadgets and tools on board the station to overcome dangerous obstacles in your way. Survive unprecedented threats with your wits and ability to improvise.
Prey: Mooncrash
Fight overwhelming odds to escape a secret TranStar moon base where the enemies you encounter, the hazards you face, the goals you complete, and the loot you collect are different each time you play. With changing environments as dangerous as they are dynamic, the Mooncrash campaign for Prey will offer a fun, infinitely replayable challenge to test even the most skilled players.
Story
In Prey: Mooncrash, TranStar’s secret moon base stopped transmitting shortly after the events of Prey. Now Peter, a hacker stationed aboard a spy satellite tasked with intercepting TranStar communications, must find out why. Trapped and under a ruthless contract with KASMA Corp, Peter’s only hope of ever seeing his family again is uncovering the moon base’s lost secrets.
Live. Die. Adapt. Escape!
Escape TranStar’s moon base before the Typhon threat takes over. A simple goal, but one with hundreds of viable solutions. In Mooncrash, players will experience an all-new, infinitely replayable, ‘rogue-lite’ campaign with ever-changing enemies, weapons and objectives against a constantly increasing alien threat.
Survive How You Want with Who You Want
Unlock multiple characters as you play, each with their own set of specialized, upgradable skills. Will you forge your path with the resourceful engineer Joan, trade that wrench in for Security Officer Bhatia and his shotgun, or will you choose the frail-but-gifted Andrius and his arsenal of psychic abilities? Prey is about choices, and those choices belong to you.
Search for Secrets, Loot…and a Way Off
Arkane Studios’ talent for detail and story-rich environments comes alive in Mooncrash. As you explore the station, which is the same size and scope of four levels of the original game’s Talos I station, don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled for precious supplies – and, of course, Mimics.
New Challenges, New Solutions
The Typhon threat has returned with familiar foes and tough new enemies, each armed with a unique set of deadly characteristics. Use the full power of the arsenal at your disposal, including popular weapons and abilities from Prey’s main game, to fight for your life and make a mad dash for your escape.

Apparently this was offered before back in June of 2021 because it was already in my library but I never got around to actually trying it. I certainly never bought it. Well, if you missed it before, now's your second chance.

Passing the word
A number of publishers and authors are putting their books on sale for the next day or two. They're also donating a portion of their proceeds to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital, so now is a great time to see if there are any books where you were on the fence about - the price won't get much better and that's a great cause to support.

X-Morph: Defense Complete Edition on GoG
https://www.gog.com/game/xmorph_defense_complete_edition?pp=632667547e7cd3e0466547863e1207a8c0c0c549

X-Morph Defense official propaganda said:

Description
X-Morph: Defense Complete Edition includes the the following DLC's:
- X-Morph: Defense - European Assault
- X-Morph: Defense - Survival Of The Fittest
- X-Morph: Defense - Last Bastion
- X-Morph: Defense - Soundtrack

Unique fusion of a top down shooter and tower defense strategy. You are the X-Morph - an alien species that invades Earth to harvest its resources and terraform the surface. Strategize in the build mode by carefully selecting various types of alien towers or throw yourself right into heat of the battle. Build mazes for incoming enemies in an environment that provides exceptional planning freedom. Tear down buildings and collapse bridges to support your defense or to simply indulge in a spectacle of unprecedented destruction. Possess a range of unique alien weapons and use defense strategies like you've never seen before in this genre.

Your goal is to defend the X-Morph harvesters from waves of incoming human forces. Each enemy wave is preceded by a setup phase in which the player can check what types of enemies are going to be attacking him and to observe their paths. There is no time limit for this phase, so the player can carefully plan his defenses or choose to start fighting immediately and place towers when needed during the battle. One of the game's key features is the ability to build towers virtually anywhere on the map and to shape enemy paths by connecting towers with laser fences. The player can choose between building long mazes out of basic towers or placing more advanced towers which are more effective at different types of incoming enemies. Advanced tower types specialize in dealing with specific enemy types e.g. flame towers are great for destroying fast moving ground units, artillery towers are best at countering large groups of slow enemies, anti air laser is ideal for shooting down heavy bombers.

As the X-Morph fighter you can engage enemy units directly with a diverse arsenal of weapons. You can morph into four distinct forms which specialize in dealing with different kinds of threats. Each form has a basic attack and a special charged attack mode. The Plasma Fighter is the most universal form - good at destroying both air and ground units. The Dark Matter Bomber is great at decimating groups of ground units. It can also slow down time and release a dark matter bomb that can cut down buildings. The Shredder fighter is perfect for annihilating large numbers of human air units and clearing the sky. Finally the Laser Destroyer is best for smelting large single units. It can also charge up a gravitational anomaly that sucks in smaller enemy units. A large variety of weapons and enemies along with a dynamic, fully destructible environment provides a rich arcade shooter experience.

The game's environments are constructed with a lot of attention to detail and they are almost completely destructible. From small picket fences to huge skyscrapers. Any bridge or building in the game can be collapsed and it's destruction is dynamically simulated using realistic physics. The destruction is not only a visual effect as it can significantly influence the layout of the battlefield. The combination of dynamic environments, laser fences and real time calculated enemy paths creates unique gameplay scenarios.

Humans are desperate to defend their home world. They have created huge, building size, mechanical war machines to fight against each other, but now they will use them to destroy the X-Morph. Each boss fight is unique and heavily influences the gameplay environment. Entire cities will be destroyed.

X-Morph: Defence includes a split screen co-op mode. All missions have different gameplay scenarios designed specifically for co-op play. Enemies attack in larger numbers and from new directions making good cooperation essential to winning. In this mode the game can be played in many different ways, one player can focus on optimizing tower placement while the other shoots at enemies or they can both focus their firepower on the strongest attackers.

X-Morph: Defense - European Assault
This add-on includes a new story-driven mini-campaign happening on the European front. The action takes place parallel to the main story campaign. It focuses on European military forces trying to repel the X-Morph invasion. Wreak havoc across Finland and Holland before concluding in an epic, destruction-fuelled showdown at the Eiffel Tower in France. European defense forces use new experimental weapons that force the X-Morph to adapt and improvise new defense tactics.

X-Morph: Defense - Survival Of The Fittest
This add-on includes a new Survival campaign with 5 maps specifically crafted for this adrenaline pumping game mode.
BRITAIN - Fight an endless enemy assault in a rain soaked maze of cottages and canals.
FINLAND - Winter is already here, but it's not the cold that is your worst enemy.
SOUTH AFRICA - A dense night is waiting to be lit up by countless enemy explosions.
NETHERLANDS - Survive as long as you can in this seemingly idyllic landscape.
FRANCE - A city labyrinth that is about to become a graveyard full of metallic corpses.

X-Morph: Defense - Last Bastion
This add-on includes a new story-driven mini-campaign which takes the players to the most remote locations in the world, where the last humans have taken refuge. The events take place on 4 islands, each with unique features. Chop down massive baobab trees in the Madagascar, slalom among the Moai on Easter Island, reshape the environment in sunny Indonesia and try not to melt in rivers of lava on Iceland. 4 new enemy types round up the package, ensuring that the X-Morph: Defense storyline gets the finale it deserves.

X-Morph: Defense - Soundtrack
X-Morph: Defense original soundtrack, created by Paweł Stelmach, featuring 21 compelling music tracks.

You control an obedient army of the living dead, with skeletons, zombies, banshees and many other unliving warriors. Create your soldiers the only way a necromancer knows how: from the body parts of your slain enemies!

Expand and improve your underground lair. Strengthen your servants by researching secret rituals. Explore the twisted corridors and underground catacombs, and battle against lobotomized miners, greedy dwarves and corrupt mercenaries. Aid Iratus in his quest to recapture and eclipse his former power. Lead him to conquer the forces of good and unleash an eternal kingdom of death upon the world!

The sheer variety of tactical and strategic options makes Iratus a true treat for any ardent fans of the roguelike genre.

Play on the side of evil, embodied by the necromancer Iratus!

Expand and improve your underground lair.

19 types of obedient servants: zombies, vampires, skeletons, mummies, banshees and many more!

Craft minions from the body parts of your conquered enemies.

Advanced combat system: to win you need to know both the strengths and weaknesses of your troops and enemies.

Iratus can kill his enemies not only by magic or claw but also by draining their sanity!

Each minion has six unique abilities for a total of nearly one-hundred abilities for you to command.

Four talent trees that alter the way you play: Alchemy, Magic, Ire and Destruction.

Roguelike elements: minions that die are gone for good and the game saves automatically, making each choice irreversible.

Detailed 2D graphics and a gloomy atmosphere of dark fantasy.

Various difficulty levels, satisfying every type of player from novice to hardcore.

Iratus himself is voiced by the voice-acting legend Stefan Weyte, famous for his performance as Caleb in the cult game series "Blood"!

There is no reason not to sign up for an Epic account or UBIsoft account. I haven't actually given them any money online. GoG has gotten some money from me, but you can still sign up for free.
I'm mostly just reposing reports from about 5 different boards so they are all in one place.

That said, I wouldn't mind some recommendations for free games on Steam. Separating the wheat from the chaff is difficult on there. Especially with RPGs, since it seems these days everybody is trying to throw "RPG elements" into their action games so they can try to draw in the RPG lovers while those of us who don't want our reflexes tested and liked games like Bard's Tale Trilogy, Baldur's Gate, Final Fantasy I-VII, Gold Box games, RPGMaker games, etc have to struggle to locate their favorite genre since they have diluted the search term.

In no particular order, here's where I'm mostly drawing from:

Six Sides of the World official propaganda said:

SIX SIDES OF THE WORLD – ALL HAIL THE PUZZLE LORD!

“Six Sides of the World” is a puzzle videogame that takes you into an intergalactic journey through different star systems riddled with brain-racking challenges.

THE ULTIMATE MATCH: YOUR BRAINS vs SCI-FI HAZARDS

Spatial orientation, logic and pure wit will be your weapons to go through the different cube shaped planetary systems. Each level will bring the threats to a whole new level, adding all kinds of sci-fi hazards: from portals to laser beams.You will need to carefully analyze each cubic planet to understand its dangers and potential solutions.

EXPLORE A VAST GALAXY SYSTEM

Six Sides of the World presents you a series of star systems to be explored. Each one is comprised by different puzzles that introduce new and more challenging mechanics.

Some of the puzzles will present more than one possible solution, enabling the player to achieve a more difficult victory, that will unlock new extra puzzles.

FROM TEST OF WIT TO ULTIMATE HEADACHE!

The freedom of exploration in Six Sides of the World let you set the difficulty: the linear path takes an intelligent and resolutive mind; but the additional solutions to some of the puzzles require a true sense of understanding of each puzzle. And that’s not all! These solutions will lead you to extra puzzles that are capable of driving you insane. It is a smart way of letting the player to set the difficulty by him/herself: going for the extra solution is a way of asking for bigger challenges. And the extra levels are the biggest challenges you can face! There is a difference between understanding new mechanics and getting to their true core. Are you ready?

ALL HAIL THE PUZZLE LORD!

Maigo is an explorer who’s about to discover something far bigger than he expects. As he navigates through space, facing increasingly difficult puzzles, he starts to understand he’s tapping over something transcendent. Some questions arise: who has created all these worlds? What motivates this intergalactic architect? There’s an utter plan beyond all this? It is a test? A mean to protect something? In seek of the truth Maigo will have to overcome all the challenges to meet this kind of… PUZZLE GOD.

FEATURES

A galaxy of puzzles: Dozens of creative, defying and engaging puzzles set in cubic planetary systems

Choose your way to victory: Non-linear progression with different difficulty levels. Follow the easy levels to end the game, explore the optional ones to face a real challenge.

Easy to control, hard to master:Easy and intuitive controls, playable with the mouse and only one button.

https://freebies.indiegala.com/?ref=freebies

SlickRCBD · Jan 24, 2022

Does anybody know if there's a way to get e-mail alerts from GoG's forums? I forgot to check their forum for almost a week and found a bunch of links to free games. The boards these came from are in this post, #134 of this thread. There are a lot more recs I haven't reposted from before I discovered those threads.
So, here's the repost:

STRANGE ADVENTURES IN INFINITE SPACE
Seems to be a Star Control clone. If you've never tried Star Control, a fan-made remake of Star Control II was released as freeware under the name "The Ur-Quan Masters" 15 years ago. Works just fine on my 1ghz Windows 98SE computer and ran fine when I made it dual-boot to XP, but I haven't tried it on anything newer.
Anyways, Strange Adventures in Infinite Space looks like it would be fun for people who liked Star Control.
http://www.digital-eel.com/sais/

STRANGE ADVENTURES IN INFINITE SPACE official propaganda said:

STRANGE ADVENTURES IN INFINITE SPACE
Explore the galaxy...in 20 minutes or less!

In the 22nd century, colony ships were programmed to search for earthlike planets along trajectories calculated to visit stars with the best likelihood of habitable worlds. One such ship with its crew and passengers in cryostasis traveled over 2300 light years before a suitable planet was found.

Hope is a temperate world located in the Glory system on the edge of a vast nebula often referred to as the Purple Void. The nebula is unique in that it contains many unusual star types and other peculiar phenomena.

Over 100 years have passed since the colonists first arrived. It is a new beginning of deep space exploration. Technology has improved and mankind is no longer dependent on slow cryoships and robot probes. This is the setting of Strange Adventures In Infinite Space.

Sail the high sea of stars in your own deep space exploration vessel. Discover exotic star systems; seek out new technologies, artifacts and lifeforms; boldly blow up stuff where no one has blown up stuff before!

SAIS is a roguelike, which means that the game is different every time it is played. Stars, planets, black holes, nebula mass, alien patrols, items, lifeforms and other encounters are randomized for each new Strange Adventure.

Playing time: 5-20 minutes

Number of players: solo

Difficulty: variable

Replayability: infinite

The full version of SAIS features:

21 different ship types

69 different weapons, drives, shields, gadgets and artifacts

18 alien lifeforms

17 different planet and star types

7 unique alien races

Explore and harvest to create a beautiful and harmonious new world, but take too much and you might incur the wrath of sentient alien life...

If possible, please support the developer on Steam (by getting it there too or even wishlisting it, it has Steam Achievements).

La-Mulana

La-Mulana official propaganda said:

La-Mulana is a freeware free-roaming platformer game designed to look, sound, and play like a classic MSX game. It´s heavily influenced by the classic Konami MSX game "The Maze of Galious" and anyone who has played that title will probably recognize the similarities very quickly. You play the whip-wielding Indiana Jones-esque archaeologist Lemeza Kosugi as he investigates the ancient ruins of La-Mulana in an attempt to find its treasure and one-up his father, who is trying to get the same treasure as well.

The game is huge, with many different areas to explore and dozens of items and weapons to find. Each area has a large variety of puzzles and traps (many of them quite fiendish) and you need to solve the puzzles in each area to discover the Ankhs and Ankh Jewels, which allow you to fight the eight Guardians of the ruins. To solve the puzzles you´ll need to be able to read the tablets scattered throughout the ruins, which will require a Hand Scanner and translation software for the portable MSX that Lemeza has brought along on the adventure. Your Hand Scanner will also allow you to find items and search the bones of less fortunate adventurers.

La-Mulana is one of the longest freeware games I´ve played in quite some time--my first playthrough took me 26 hours, and even if you knew exactly what to do for each puzzle in advance I´d still bet the game would take at least 10-12 hours to complete, not counting the bonus dungeon.

I get emails from GOG. I checked a box at one point to let them send me spam. It's fine as it does alert me to when there are "deals" (some of which actually are, y'know, deals).

I mean e-mail alerts from the GoG forum so I know when a thread has updated without having to manually check the page with my "favorite" threads.

Oh, sorry. I don't actually frequent the GOG forums to be able to answer this.
