itch.io is the biggest home for independent games, and it has a dedicated free games section filtering the catalogue down to titles priced at zero.

There are around 1.5 million free results spanning visual novels, platformers, horror, puzzle and simulation games, many playable straight in a browser and many downloadable to keep.

No subscription or payment method is needed to download a free game – you can grab them anonymously, or create a free account to keep a library and follow developers.
