7 Games Free During Steam Spring Cleaning Event [May 24, 2019, 8:00 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A Steam Spring Cleaning
Event is now underway, offering the chance to earn some flair for your Steam
profile without spending any cash. Word is: "No purchase required. Simply
complete daily tasks and projects during the event to earn trophies, unlock the
Spring Cleaning badge, and gain emoticons and backgrounds for your Steam
profile. These can be acquired through older titles already in your library as
well as by diving into something new to your collection." There are also rewards
for playing games you may not already own, but never fear, these can be played
for free between now and Tuesday. Here's the list of seven games that are free
(and on sale) for the duration of the event:
Flair for my profile. HA, take that EGS.

Well, I guess that's one way for Valve to test their CDN's bandwidth...
"Hey everybody, get free stuff if you download and install a bunch of old games you aren't really interested in. Just start them up, get the freebie, and uninstall. Repeat as necessary."

Free for two days looks kind of weak when a certain other store is giving away big games permanently, but nice to have a Grim Dawn demo to try out I guess. Not a super fan of Diablo stuff but I do like the look of it.

These aren't "free" games, they're weekend trials.

Guess they are looking to get rid of the Spring Sale, normally this weekend and moved up the Summer Sale from July to June.

"Complete daily tasks?" Fuck you, Valve, I already have a fucking job.
Maybe, I don't know, do something fucking COOL or offer some actual free shit instead of a two day free trial for which you have to do 'chores'.
Three years from now, Valve will be sitting there wondering why nobody is going to their store anymore.

Meh, gamification of Steam isn't any worse than Epic constantly selling their captive audience of Fortnite players to advertisers. Both methods are making a lot of money and can be almost completely ignored by those they offend.

You don't have to do any chores to play the games, it's just the usual free weekend. I'm pretty sure Steam doesn't have the functionality to give you a game if you have x badge or achievement.

Considering EGS doesn't have public profiles... so there's that.

So say we all.

I'm gonna try Grim Dawn and Endless Space 2. Won't buy either game though because the fuckers behind both companies can not be arsed to offer proper complete bundles of their games (no, the Endless Space 2 "Collection", in spite of its FRAUDULENTLY INTENTIONALLY misleading name, does not include all of the DLC). Fuck those assholes but thanks for the freebie anyway!

Good morning to 2019, Sir!
The last time the summer sale happened in July was 2013! The spring cleaning event was also held last year around the same date for the first time. Not sure what you mean by "normally"? Steam never had a real "spring sale". This spring cleaning event is relatively new and occurred for the first time in 2018. They have not had any other history or regularity of spring sales.

Oh okay, I misunderstood what they were saying then.
