Which stores and sources should you check?

Understand the difference between official stores, free-to-play catalogs, DRM-free sources, and partner feeds.

Step-by-step

  1. Use source pills to identify where an offer came from.
  2. Treat Epic, Steam, GOG, itch.io, EA, and Ubisoft as store contexts with different claim rules.
  3. Separate free-to-play catalog entries from limited-time giveaways.
  4. Use platform filters when you only want PC, browser, Android, or other platform-specific games.
  5. Check source counts in the tracker rail to understand where most active offers are coming from.

Practical tips

Some GOG and Steam entries are demos, not full free games.

itch.io giveaways can have short windows and creator-specific pages.

DRM-free does not always mean GOG; check the source label.
