For the next two days, you can get a PC game completely free on Steam. Once you download it, you’ll be able to play it forever! This offer also works on the Steam Deck. The game normally costs $10, so be sure to grab it before November 13th when the price goes back up.
The free PC game was created by Ink Stain Games and published by HypeTrain Digital in 2015. Ink Stain Games has only released two games on Steam: this one, and Stoneshard, which came out in 2020. The game is called 12 is Better Than 6 for those unfamiliar with it.
About the Game
12 Is Better Than 6 is an action-packed western shooter where you play as an escaped slave in 1873. Your goal is to travel from Mexico to Texas, and you’ll rely on a stolen revolver and sombrero to survive, using both direct combat and stealth.
But is it actually good? Looking at Steam reviews, it generally is – it has over 1,000 reviews with a 74% positive rating. Surprisingly, making the game free hasn’t improved those numbers. In fact, recent reviews since it went free are lower, at only 66% positive. This often happens with free games on Steam for a variety of reasons. If you enjoyed classic flash games, you’ll probably like this top-down shooter. However, if you don’t have fond memories of that style of gaming, it might not appeal to you as much.
The most popular review describes the game as a warm reminder of classic online flash games from childhood. Its hand-drawn, notebook-style art is also praised for being charming.
Players are praising the game’s fantastic art style, enjoyable gameplay, and original setting. One reviewer strongly recommends it to fans of indie games, while another describes it as a thrilling, fast-paced experience that’s well worth playing, even though it’s relatively short – every moment is packed with fun.
One reviewer mentioned the game is a good length – not too short, but not overly long, offering around 4 to 6 hours of gameplay.
