Score 8 surprise indie games for free with Amazon Prime Gaming in May 2023

Amazon Prime Gaming has a treat for its subscribers this month, as eight new indie games have been added to the May 2023 offerings. As part of their monthly service, Prime Gaming grants access to 10-15 titles that can be downloaded and owned for free. However, on rare occasions, the service offers additional titles for subscribers to pick up for free.

This month, Prime Gaming has already made available fifteen games for their subscribers, including popular titles such as Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 3D, Planescape Torment: Enhanced Edition, and Lake. With the recent release of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, fans have been eager to dive back into the Star Wars universe and Rogue Squadron 3D has been a perfect fit for this. Another standout from this month's lineup is Lake, a cozy indie game that lets players drive around a small, peaceful Pacific Northwestern town, delivering mail and packages to its residents, forming relationships, and even finding love along the way. As May draws to a close, Prime Gaming has added even more indie games to this month's already impressive selection.

Eight additional independent games are now available for Prime Gaming subscribers to claim until June 26. As with all free Prime Gaming titles, once claimed, subscribers will own these games forever. The standout title in this latest release is Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, a humorous game that takes place in a charming, Zelda-like world where players can solve puzzles, grow crops, and battle vile beasts, all while playing as a tax-evading turnip boy. A sequel to the game, titled Turnip Boy Robs a Bank, was announced last year and will be released in 2023. This Prime Gaming offering is an excellent opportunity for players to immerse themselves in Turnip Boy's crime-obsessed world and get ready for the upcoming bank-robbing sequel.

Beasts of Maravilla Island, Calico, DKO: Divine Knockout, Double Kick Heroes, Shattered: Tale of the Forgotten King, Tiny Robots Recharged, Tandem: A Tale of Shadows, and Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion are all exciting and unique games that are worth checking out. Each game offers its own take on various genres, from puzzle-solving to action-packed adventures. With such a diverse selection, there's something for everyone to enjoy. So why not give these games a try and see which one becomes your new favorite?

Calico is definitely a standout in the latest free game bundle. This charming simulator invites players to design their very own cafe, complete with stylish decor and a delightful array of animals. From majestic wolves to adorable polar bears, players can create a welcoming environment that celebrates their favorite creatures. What's more, Calico offers a unique flying feature that lets players soar around the island on brooms or birds, much like in the beloved Hogwarts Legacy. While this batch of games will be available until June, be sure to keep an eye out for the upcoming announcement of June's free Prime games.
