Not related to games, but another area electronic entertainment - Ebooks.
Several ebooks are being given away for free (or some being heavily discounted) as part of a scheme called “Authors Give Back”, which is being run by Smashwords.
The scheme aims to help people cope in isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic by giving them something to help them pass the time.
There are plenty of books available for free. Some of my recommendations are:
- H2Zero by Scott A. Butler (post-apocalyptic, short)
- Risk Analysis by David Collins-Rivera (sci-fi, space)
- The Frey Saga (Books 1-3) by Melissa Wright (fantasy, young adult)
- The Blood Thief of Whitten Hall By Jon Messenger (sci-fi, retropunk/steampunk)
- Queen of Tommorrow by Sherry D. Ficklin (historical, young adult)
- The Emperor’s Edge Collection by Lindsay Buroker (sci-fi, steampunk)
