      Most of the games are forbidden in Germany, so you have to redeem one by one:

      One or more games from the Freedom To Buy offer is banned in your country. If you are in one of the countries below, please go here: https://support.gog.com/hc/articles/29306002386845 This article contains codes to redeem the games one at a time, and will allow you to redeem those games which are available in your country

    This whole saga might just inadvertently make porno games explode (heh) in popularity. I’ve never played one myself, but if GOG is giving some away for free, I’m going to download a few and see what the hype is about.

      I’ve heard good things about Hunie Pop. So far it’s… uncomfortably sexist. But I guess what do you expect. I’ll give it a shot.

        It was published in 2015 and it feels like it was written in 2007, I find it mostly funny but I agree it’s not be the best ambassador for the genre.

      Well I hope you don’t bust while playing Postal 2. Not really any sexy stuff on there, but you can dump gas on people, burn them alive, and then piss on them.

      Also, cats can be used as suppressors.

        I’m rewatching some Criminal Minds. You’d be surprised/horrified at what some people bust to. The main word of that show is sexual sadism. That said, this one does stand out among the other games lol

            That’s Postal 2 - I think an early day of the week like day 2. Having to go to the mall and wait in line.

        don’t forget to pick up the original, which is also free. i put in way more hours into it than i care to admit when it was a new game.

        As I understand it, those were ones that were already free (to an extent, you could still pay if you wanted to before this).

          A lot were, but not all. I believe Itch made the decision to allow this type of content only if it’s free for now though, so a lot has gone totally free (with the option to donate).

          I’m not totally sure on any of this, because this content is not something I follow, but I think I heard this is the case somewhere here recently. I could be wrong.
