No Budget Needed For These Games

Some might say the best kind of game is one you didn't have to pay for. With many free games coming out in the last several years, most of us know at least a few free games, but many don't know that free games span more than just battle royales. In fact, there are great free games that span all the genres and include indie games to AAA big box releases. And if you don't enjoy it, at least there's no need to go through Steam's refund system.
