Prime Gaming (was Twitch Prime) (supplementary PC games for Amazon Prime subscribers) | OP updated with June 2023 games

[Fry Crayola]

Oh, I'll definitely give Golazo a run out. I've always got time for quirky indie football games.

[Mallet]

The games are available for you to claim now, Stellaris is a gog.com game.

[Qazimod]

 

 

As ever, use the desktop app to claim the other games, not the website. Or if you're going to claim on the website, open the app as well to confirm that they're in your library.

Do you mean I should install the Prime Gaming launcher, just in case claiming freebies on the website doesn't stick? Or is this a warning for games claimed via linked services like GOG?

Yes, use the launcher. I don't know if it's improved at all, but there was a period where claiming on the website wasn't reflected on the launcher for me. Maybe it has improved, but I just continue to use the launcher to remove any uncertainty.

 

The GOG/Epic/Origin giveaways are generally fine, because they're just a code you can use on those websites.

Yikes, cheers! I had no idea. Truthfully, they just go in my virtual pile of shame of something I effectively pay for so should claim. I'll put the launcher on, to be sure.

[partious]

I've claimed every game in the last couple of years (and played precisely none of them, of course) and I never had an issue claiming them through the website. 

It's only more recently with the Origin/other launcher games that I've been using my pc to claim them.

[Qazimod]

Maybe it has been fixed. Maybe it’s just me. Maybe there’s like a 0.0001% chance of the games not being claimed correctly. But compared to the client’s 0% I’d rather not roll the dice.

All the other providers they use to provide the games can be claimed via their respective websites, you don't need to install any dedicated software to claim any of the games (I assume the ones only usable via Amazon/Twitch are registered, but I'm not in a hurry to install some bloody bit of software which will insist on updating itself more times than necessary any time soon)

[Qazimod]

March: 

 

 

Madden '22

Surviving Mars

SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech

Crypto: Against All Odds

The Stillness of the Wind

Look Inside

Pesterquest

[moosegrinder]

Ooooooooooooooh Steamworld Quest. Nice.

[Danster]

Anyone who hasn't already got it free from epic or elsewhere should give Surviving Mars a go. One of my favourite world building games of recent years, good music, fun scenarios and you're creating a future for humankind. What's not to like 🙂

[Qazimod]

I'm sure I claimed it as a Humble freebie last year and didn't get around to it.  

 

Also we're officially in the daft period for new game releases, which doesn't help.

[Mallet]

February's games are available to be claimed.

 

Surviving Mars is on the epic store and predictably Madden is on origin.

I really enjoyed it, playing on stadia with an inconsistent connection. Glad more people will be able to enjoy it. I might even go back to it.

Its been in a Humble monthly and also been a Humble and also an Epic freebie

 

I've still never played it

Thanks  I've been so wrapped up in Elden Ring that I'm slacking on responsibilities.

[Qazimod]

April:

 

 

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GotY Edition 
Plants vs Zombies: Battle for Neighborville
Monkey Island™ 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge™
Nanotale — Typing Chronicles
Guild of Ascension
Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion
Galaxy of Pen and Paper 
House of 1000 Doors

 

I've updated the OP and GoogleDoc.

[Qazimod]

These are available to claim now. 1000 Doors requires a Legacy Games account to redeem, Plants vs Zombies requires an Origin account to redeem, and Oblivion requires a GOG account to redeem.

[Qazimod]

May:

 

 

Dead Space 2

The Curse of Monkey Island

Out of Line

Mail Mole

Cat Quest

Shattered: Tale of the Forgotten King

 

I've updated the OP and spreadsheet.

[Qazimod]

These are available to claim now. Dead Space 2 is an Origin code you can find when you log into http://gaming.amazon.com and claim - the others can be claimed in the client itself.

[Siri]

June's games have been rumoured by HUKD: Far Cry 4, WRC8, Escape From Monkey Island, Calico, Across The Grooves and Astrologlaster.

 

Pretty great month - I didn't bother with buying FC4 because Ubisoft started being dickheads in general when it finally got cheap, and Astrologlaster is something I wanted to polish off after it left Game Pass on PC.

[Qazimod]

I tried FC4 when it was on PS+ (and before the Ubi abuse stuff emerged…) I don’t take much interest in Ubisoft sandbox games, but if you don’t mind slightly repetitive activities it’s a serviceable time-waster.

 

I’ll update the OP when we get confirmation from Prime Gaming (via their Twitter, or YouTube, etc.)

[Qazimod]

Confirmation:

 

 

I've updated the OP and GoogleDoc.

[Qazimod]

These should be available to claim now. Far Cry 4 needs a Ubisoft account for Prime to link to.

Long list of free games for Prime Day, I assume everywhere. Among the games is Mass Effect Legendary Ed.

[Bacon Horsemeat]

Thank you Mr Bezos, so generous

Bump to remind people to keep an eye on Prime news, as the giveaways are supposed to begin today...

[Ry]

I have prime. 

 

How do I redeem these? Can't play them right now but hoping I can play them on steam deck.

I've not seen anything for Smazon games for SD yet, hopefully soon

 

Edit: Actually there is a workaround: (note... read the comments, not the main post)
