It’s a good week for fans of video game discoveries. Steam has quietly added four new free games to its store, available now and without time limit or subscription. Once collected, they are yours forever.
If you’re looking for original experiences without spending a cent, these little independent games might just surprise you. Retro platform, tense cooperation, artistic solitaire or surreal action… there is something for everyone.
The 4 free games not to be missed this week on Steam
Astro Felix A fast-paced, retro platform game where you play as a skating cat in a cyberpunk city. You have to dodge obstacles, defeat enemies and collect coins to improve your performance. Arcade and pixel art atmosphere.
Sync or Sink
A two-player cooperative game that traps you in a sinking submarine. You’ll need to communicate with walkie-talkies to solve puzzles and escape before it’s too late. Perfect for testing your composure as a duo.
Flick Solitaire
A revisited solitaire, enriched by illustrations created by true independent artists. Each card is a unique work, to be assembled to compose the ultimate deck. A zen game, perfect for taking a break.
Heart Snatcher
In this fast-paced, top-down action game, you compete in a series of trials to earn your freedom…and snacks. After you involuntarily give in your heart, the trials come one after the other. You will have to dodge, survive and triumph in this rhythmic and slightly offbeat adventure.
Nuggets to discover without paying anything
These games are available for free now on Steam, and you can keep them indefinitely once added to your library. This is the ideal opportunity to test little-known but charming independent titles, without touching your wallet.
Valve’s platform offers hundreds of free games every month, but this selection stands out for its variety and creativity. A word of advice: don’t wait too long, some of these titles may quickly disappear from the free catalog.
