PayPalQuick tip - GOG and Amazon Prime Gaming have teamed up to give subscribers an offer they can't refuse - another free game! Get a copy of Stellaris from Paradox Interactive / Paradox Development Studios.
How to get it? Easy. Just head over to Prime Gaming and click the Games header, then you will see that you can redeem Stellaris on GOG. The offer is open until March 1 and the deal is open to any region that is available with GOG, so you should be good to go. Always nice to get another free game and Stellaris is one where you can happily sink 100s of hours into even without any DLC.
Direct Link
For those who don't mind using the Wine compatibility layer directly they also have World War Z: Aftermath from the Epic Store (you can use Heroic for that on Linux!), plus Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order on Origin (Lutris support incoming).

Quoting: EhvisWhen you click on the games tab, you see a short flash. That is your games library. Click one very quickly and install it.
Thanks. Unfortunately it seems that even using nice and cpulimit, my machine renders too fast and I do not get the flash! I'm currently experimenting with repeatedly launching the Amazon app immediately after it crashes so that I can download the freebies 30sec at a time :-)
Quoting: PangaeaNeed to become a member apparently, which means it isn't free, and they can feck off.
Amazon's constantly flogging Prime to me, trying to get me to become a member and forget to stop. "We'll give you X bucks off this purchase if you join Prime, free for just long enough for it to slip your mind!" I actually went for it one time, but I made dashed sure to figure out before I pressed the button exactly how to get the heck off it again right after.

I'll have a look in the prefix tonight and see if there's something in the files that can be changed to get the same effect.
Quoting: GuestWell, Prime gaming is not yet available in my country
Same here.
Not that I'd be missing it at all......
