SunBlockers is free on Epic Games Store.

I haven't looked too much into info about this game but just from the images and videos on their EGS page it doesn't look like much at all. Epic Games started posting shovelware? Also, 10GB minimum storage requirement? It does look weird. Also, blacklisted in Australia, Brazil, Germany, Russia and South Korea.

The Steam page for nightreaper2 says this:

AI Generated Content Disclosure​

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Some store capsule, library, and marketing artwork were generated using AI tools and then manually edited by the developer.
No AI-generated content is used during gameplay, and the game does not generate AI content live while running.

Granted, that's self reported, so take it with a grain of salt.

A pretty unique Free itch.io game.
https://virtual-adventures.itch.io/star-quest-1-in-the-27th-century

It's a repackaged version of a game originally released in 1995, made free by the original developer:

https://www.pcgamer.com/games/sim/t...work-on-modern-systems-and-released-for-free/

Lauzon announced the game's rerelease over on Reddit. "I’m the original developer of Star Quest 1 in the 27th Century, first released in 1995," he wrote in the post. "I spent the last few weeks updating it for a 30th Anniversary Edition so it runs on Windows without the need to install and configure a DOS emulator yourself. I also modified the code to support game controllers and joystick with HOTAS setup and revised the keyboard and mouse control too."

Mixed reviews on Steam, with many commenting on "slippery" controls, like the vehicles are on ice.

One choice review:

Got this game for $0.05 worth that but not much more

It seems like we'll see more shovelware on Epic Games Store as well. I do like collecting free stuff but sometimes I wonder if it's even worth the effort adding all these games to my accounts.

I mean yeah you don't have to add everything, you're allowed to be discerning
