List of freeware games
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Freeware games are games that are released as freeware and can be downloaded and used, free of charge, for an unlimited length of time. Though the phrase free games is often used to refer simply to games that are free of charge, the term free games can also mean games that are Free Software, i.e., the source code is available under a free software license that permits modification and redistribution. See List of open source games for such games, which are not included in this list.
For commercial games that were re-released as freeware, see List of commercial games released as freeware.
Games that require a donation or fee, have nag screens, or require purchase for play time, game items, new content or features are shareware, and are not included in this list. Also, modifications of other games (especially commercial ones) and unfinished games may not be added to this list.
