I don't think there's anything wrong with a post that says "hey come look here" as long as your site is legit.

This is, as described, a "Free Games Thread". If someone, anyone, has links to legitimate free games, they are all welcome.
I agree with this, it's nothing away from anyone :)

OK, just to draw a line under this debate, within the guidelines self promotion for new members is normally not allowed but leeway is given to more established members, however this ruling within the spirit of the guidelines also takes into account any commercial interests that the poster may have in doing so, so in reality and arguably you could both be right here so to speak.

My view is, hopefully within the realms of common sense (mine at least :)), is that if there is no outright commercial gain, the site is legit and all the games listed there are genuine free games and it adds value to this community then it is OK to give it a go, not sure how it would work in the free games thread in so much as I would not want to see a post with a link to the site on every page of this thread, maybe a single post with a link and the new member maybe put that link in their signature and then call it a day...……. I will tag the other Senior Mod's for any relevant comment/confirmation as I am off on holiday tomorrow!

Edit: @Dimnexus ...… Could you message the link to @sneekypeet and @bogmali as I will be away after today.

Die Young: Prologue



About This Game

Die Young: Prologue narrates events that occurred a few hours before the main story of Die Young. You play as Nehir, a field agent on a mission to kill Brother No.1. The mission failed and now you have only one desperate attempt to reach the extraction point.



In Die Young: Prologue you play as Nehir, a field agent of a well-known political party.
The party’s agenda is to deconstruct and eliminate Brother n.1, the leader of Island’s community.

Collectively, Nehir infiltrated the Island with her peers.
Their mission was to free the leader of their party who was being held captive.
The secondary objective of their plan was to kill Brother N.1.
The plan, however, took a turn for the worst.
In a last-ditch effort to assassinate Brother n.1, Nehir blew her cover and was forced to make a daring escape.

Download Here



The Prologue covers her desperate attempt to reach the rendezvous point. Will she be able to save herself or will she die young?



Die Young: Prologue is an action-adventure with a more linear structure than the open-world of Die Young, but it leaves the player with the possibility of using different approaches and paths to escape.
The game consists of three levels: Introductory, Main, Final.

If players choose to explore these levels, they’ll discover several useful items that’ll unravel the deep lore behind Die Young.

And on that note, it operates as a good demo for Die Young, which everyone should play at least once! I was a part of that from Early Access because thendevs are very responsive and love their work.

So yeah, the Prologue is pretty good!

I give it a solid 7.5, with the climbing being a 9.5, some of the best done in a game. I always felt invested in the main character. For a small team, a very solid game.
