Steam users have a limited time to claim OneShift for free. Steam free game giveaways happen on a fairly regular basis, ensuring that PC gamers have a steady stream of free games to add to their digital libraries. The times when Steam users are able to claim and keep free games indefinitely are the most exciting, but there are also times when major games have free-play windows that are exciting as well.
For example, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is free to play on Steam until November 10 at 12:00pm CST. The critically-acclaimed open world RPG offers a massive 50-100+ hour experience so it's highly unlikely one will get through the game before the free period is over, but this way they can at least try before they buy. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is also offering a 40% discount to coincide with the free-play period.
Steam Users Have Until November 7 to Claim Free Game with 'Very Positive' Reviews
Players who want to add more free games to their Steam libraries shouldn't miss this limited-time offer to claim and keep a well-received title.
OneShift is Free on Steam
The downside is Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 isn't free to keep on Steam. If Steam users don't buy it, they will lose all access come November 10 at 12:00pm CST. Luckily, the latest free Steam game, OneShift, is free to keep with no strings attached. Steam users can claim OneShift for free now as long as they do so by November 10 at 12:00pm CST.
OneShift is a puzzle platformer game with a time-freezing gimmick with a presentation that sort of gives off Monument Valley vibes. It was originally released in 2018 and has earned "Very Positive" reviews from Steam users that have played it. The game normally retails for $4.99, so even if you happen upon this post after the free window has already expired and are interested in playing it, at least buying the game outright won't break the bank.
The other Steam freebie currently up for grabs and also expiring on November 10 at 12:00pm CST is the Pony DLC for Simon the Sorcerer Origins. Using the DLC requires owning the base game, which is $24.99, but free is free. Simon the Sorcerer Origins is a point-and-click adventure game inspired by genre classics, so even if you don't want to buy it right now, it couldn't hurt to still claim the DLC now in case you decide to buy it later or if it happens to become free itself. Like OneShift, Simon the Sorcerer Origins has earned "Very Positive" reviews, so it seems like a solid bet for fans of point-and-click adventure games.
