Over the past few months there seems to have been an explosion of games released as freeware.
This posting will present a sort of meta-index of freeware games-lists that I have found on the net.
At first when this posting was conceived I was going to put together a list of my favorite freeware games; however, I was thinking why create another list when there are so many out there? Here’s a collection of my favorite freeware games lists:
