List of F2P games!

[ANUPLUCIFERGAMER]

This is by no means a comprehensive list, but rather free games I enjoy or look fun. I purposely left out most MMOs and flash games and wrote this in no particular order.

Let me know if I’ve made any mistakes in spelling, links, or information. I’d also love to update this list with any games you recommend.

Finally, some of these games require other free software, like DOSBox to play. It should be clear on each game’s website if this is necessary. If not, let me know and I’ll put it in the list.
