Ground Rules:
1) The game must primarily have a first-person perspective and a single-player campaign.
2) The game must be, and have always been, free. Temporary giveaways don't count.
3) The game must be available by legal means. No pirating
4) The game must not rely on any purchasable files. Doom TC's are alright if they can use FreeDoom as their IWAD. Just mention it in the post.
This is all just for fun and to spread the joy of free stuff, so please keep things positive
