Browse free PC games with tiny downloader

November 18th, 2011

Finding a free PC game you'll actually want to play is a chore, as titles are scattered across hundreds, if not thousands of websites. Game Downloader, a tiny PC client, hopes to change that.

The itty-bity program archives games from over a 100 websites and promises to update new entries regularly. Games can be scoured by categories — real-time strategy, action, shooter, arcade, etc — and you can view screens, YouTube videos, and download links from within the client. 

The most notable downsides: the window can't be maximized, forcing you to scroll for more details. And in a move that would make the Google Gods wreck havoc on humanity, the client doesn't feature a search bar.

Other than that though, it's a great little utility to help you discover free PC games.

This actually seems like a pretty cool little program, especially since I am always looking for something to play on my old laptop! Thanks for sharing this, mate!

I might check it out since there might be more games like X-Com in the browser. Man I wish there were more modern turn-based strategy games.

Is there a rating system so we can see which games are good or not?

Wow this is pretty cool. I did see a thread on Steam that shows all free games on Steam though.

New forums... Soon™

Well there's something I'll be grabbing tonight and digging through.

I was hoping something like this existed.
