Considering how much fun I have extracted from it, Tabletop Simulator even at full price is cheap for what you get.
$250 worth of Eldritch Horror and expansions? Free. Spawning endless bees on the board when @Cobaltasaurus completely creams me at Qwirkle? Priceless.
The number of times I pulled out a piece you needed/wanted was unreal.
Saying the quiet parts out loud since 1996.

Now here's a game that I wouldn't mind the endless grind. I played some other cheap-as-free FPS military game similar to Ghost Recon and I didn't even finish a fourth of it because every. Damn. Mission. Was the same.
But I've heard so much good about The Line that...yeah, plus one million for the heads up.

The Line broke the mold as a casual FPS because the story is the more important aspect. It is a damn good story at the end of the line, in my opinion.
It's a good story because it's inspired by Heart of Darkness.
(Uh, spoilers, I guess?)
@insomnia
Yeah but that made it unexpected in an FPS. Usually the game stories are pretty shallow or just secondary to the 'shoot people' aspect of the game.
Which is why I was unthrilled by news of Ghost Recon. If there isn’t a story then there better be just unmitigated fun.
Doom + Steam Link = $15 (+ shipping)
Is it me or is Valve extremely desperate to get more Steam Links out there?
(Bonus, possibly irony: Without Doom, the Steam Link is not discounted at all. Bethesda and Valve makeouts in their tree fort?)
I got my Steam Link for about 1.50 in a bundle with the controller around the holidays. It's pretty darn nice. I just sit back on the couch (or lay back in bed if I take it in to that TV) and play Cat Quest. hehe
@firepuff Cat Goes Fishing is the best cat-themed game out there and I will totally argue this fact on the internet.
Crusader Kings 2 is free on Steam right now. Amazing game.Try it, and if you like it, buy the DLC stuff for it.
This War of Mine is free on Steam right now, but it's one of those play for free for a couple of days, deals.
Witcher 1 is free right now on GoG by either signing up for the newsletter, but apparently also on the page itself.
More Freeeeeeee....and this one is really good too

Note to others: Free as in visiting, not free as in beer.

It is free as in forever, but you can still buy it for $15. It's amazing that they have this option of FREE. I'm tempted to buy it anyway because of that.
Will demo it first naturally.
Because money.

Galactic Civilizations II Ultimate Edition free on Humble
Great game!
Hey guys! Right now on Humble Trove there are 4 games that are free to everyone: Quiet City, Knight Club, Uurnog, and Hitchhiker! Humble Trove is usually only available to Humble Monthly subscribers, but from now until June 1st they will be available to everyone. They will be yours to keep if you go monthly or not! This link is tied to my partner account, but the games are free regardless.
If you like JRPGs, two games typically $30+ are bundled together for $5 with all the DLC for the second game.
