I ask this before (somewhere?) but most suggest paid games for some reason, im not sure why.

are there some free games from itch or steam to play when one has freetime to do things? and someday i might start recording gamplay videos, maybe it really depends on how life goes.

Android:
Animation Throwdown - It's a card game, free to play with a pay to win element.
Flow Free - Connect the dots, but you can't cross lines. It reminds me of Snafu for Intellivision.
Scrambled Net - Turn tiles to connect every workstation to the server. Kind of like Pipes.

PC:
Archive.org - Everything in classic gaming is here.
Epic Store - They had some amazing giveaways over the past year, I hope they keep it up though I would not be disappointed if they did give me Civ VI.
Amazon Prime Gaming - If you're paying for Prime already, might as well get the most of it. They have done some amazing giveaways as well, including Fallout NV. They also give away addons for other games. Like a shirt or mount for World of Warcraft. Overwatch loot boxes.
Overwatch 2 - I'm not a fan and soured from the payed for OW1 and now can't play it crowd. It's there, its free. So is Fortnite and Among Us and Fall Guy

Steam - I'll give them a nod. They do give away free games "sometimes", but I've only ever seen indie games nothing of the AAA variety.
