This wildly successful indie gem is completely free on Steam—but only for another 48 hours

Free stuff is always great, and luckily for us, Steam tends to offer loads of free games just about every day, and sometimes it’s a major title. Indies in particular are very good at willingly hopping into your library free of charge, and this time around, it’s House Flipper doing so.

Incredibly popular and successful, House Flipper is free to claim and keep forever on Steam, with this amazing offer available until April 6, the day after tomorrow. Released in 2018, House Flipper saw a rapid rise as players wanted to join in on the fun of purchasing, fixing up, and subsequently selling off properties for significant financial gain.

Its easy and simple gameplay loop, loads of options, and countless DLC constantly adding to the fun made it into one of the most popular indies ever, with an estimated 2.5 million copies sold on Steam alone.

This amazing offer comes in celebration of House Flipper Remastered Collection‘s upcoming release in the second quarter of 2026, which will cost as little as $16 for those who own the original game and at least six DLCs. The Remastered Collection will contain all DLCs and the remastered game in one package, allowing you to experience its full content library through a single purchase.

Getting the free version will let you play the base game as it was in 2018 (though substantially updated), potentially getting you excited enough to buy into the remaster or even its sequel, House Flipper 2.

House Flipper also has extensive mod support and tens of thousands of mods that can make your fun last even longer without any extra charges, meaning you could potentially squeeze out dozens of hours out of this game by spending literally zero bucks.

Free-to-keep games are constantly available on Steam, and the easiest way to keep up to date with what’s being offered up for nothing is to just click on the store search bar, as the top auto-generated result is usually a completely free game.

Realistic FPS title Road to Vostok is coming soon to PC players via Steam, and not long is left for the upcoming launch to go live. Set in a zone between Finland and Russia, the title will test your survival skills.

But first, let’s look at when Road to Vostok goes live worldwide.

Road to Vostok will be dropping worldwide on Tuesday, April 7. There won’t be any console launch, and the following countdown will expire once the game goes live.

The countdown is based on the following timings.

• 7am PT

• 10am ET
• 3pm UTC
• 4pm CET

What to expect from Road to Vostok

Road to Vostok aims to be a hyper-realistic survival shooter that’s set in a post-apocalyptic world. There are different zones, as everyone starts in Area 05. This deserted zone is close to Finland, and it’s relatively safe for survival. Your journey will go past the Border Zone into Vostok, and it will be anything but easy.

The Border Zone will have its own set of challenges with nature and man-made forces trying to thwart your journey. Vostok, in comparison, will be a high-risk, high-reward zone. Vostok is also a permadeath game where you’ll lose everything if you die. However, it’s also the same place where you’ll find the best loot.

While looting is your key to success, you have to be mindful of the dynamic nature of the maps. Different times of the day will have different worries, as will the weather and seasons. Dynamic events will also be taking place, raising challenges along the way.

With plenty of customization options in place, you can make your survival your very own. While survival won’t be easy, Road to Vostok aims to be a true hardcore sandbox experience where there’s no one single way of playing.

If you want to check it out, there’s a free demo that’s currently available on Steam.
