Overview
Description

Alien Swarm drops you and up to three friends into a hostile off‑world colony, forcing you to coordinate tactics and choose from four distinct marine classes. The free‑to‑play title blends intense shooter action with squad‑level strategy as you clear icy surfaces and lava‑filled mines of relentless alien threats. Beyond the core campaign, the game includes the full Source SDK code, offering developers access to a 3rd‑person camera, depth of field, dynamic shadows, and numerous gameplay enhancements for modding and custom content creation.

Fall Guys is a free-to-play massively multiplayer party royale where dozens of jellybean characters stumble through colorful obstacle courses and mini-games until one winner remains. It is pure, chaotic fun.

Sunk way too many hours into Fall Guys. Cross-platform. No real complaints. Would recommend.

Fall Guys has been my go-to lately. Easy to pick up. One gripe: cosmetic monetization. Would recommend.
