Amazon Prime Video's new gaming anthology show “Secret Level” premieres today (December 10), and to celebrate, Prime Gaming is giving away 10 free games, including titles featured on the show.
If you are not familiar with Prime Gaming, it is a benefit included with Amazon Prime that gives subscribers access to a treasure trove of gaming goodies. A typical perk is a rotating selection of free games, and while there are usually a handful of valuable titles available on Prime Gaming each month, we are now being gifted double-digit free titles.
The full list of “secret level” free games available on Prime Gaming can be seen below, but my personal favorite is The Outer Worlds. This strange RPG is the work of Obsidian Entertainment, the development studio behind Fallout: New Vegas and the Xbox console exclusive Avowed. You play a spacer embarking on a mission across a vast galaxy ruled by a greedy corporation. The story is full of witty writing and choices, and is truly entertaining.
Other standouts include the indie epic “Spelunky,” the chaotic co-op scrambler “Overcooked 2,” the classic RPG “Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition” and its sequel “Baldur's Gate II:. Enhanced Edition, and two “Warhammer 40,000” games, “Dawn of War” and “Space Marine. All of these free versions are playable on PC (via GoG) and are available with an Amazon Prime account.
If these free games are not enough for you, Prime Gaming is offering them as a bonus, in addition to their regular selection of free games. Now you can also get the PC versions of Mafia: Definitive Edition, BioShock Remastered, A Plague Tale: Innocence, Tale from the Borderlands, and Dishonored for free: Dishonored: Definitive Edition, among others.
Prime Gaming currently offers more than 70 free games, dozens of which are smaller indie titles that play best on mobile, but there are also plenty of classic classics and modern blockbusters. Frankly, if you can't find at least a few of the service's current library of free games that appeal to you, you may not be cut out to play video games.
I've been arguing for a while that Prime Games is one of the most overlooked of Amazon Prime's membership benefits, but the gaming-focused service is really spoiling its subscribers this month. While the “Secret Level” itself may have a rather lukewarm rating (as of this writing, it only has a 64% rating on Rotten Tomatoes), at least the free perks offered at the same time are pretty great.
