<span class="bold">Desura Freedom Friday - Dec 19</span>

The Dwarves, The Notebook, Stories of Bethem and The Stained

They do make me wonder - putting them on the main page separately, then bundling together as the Freedom Friday makes little sense.
One more for then next Friday? http://www.desura.com/games/within-deep-sorrows

<span class="bold">Christmas Shopper Simulator</span> :p

Say goodbye to the frankly overrated sense of achievement that you get from actually going Christmas shopping.

Finally you can live out your tamest fantasies, playing a simulation of something you’ve been putting off, during time that could be spent actually doing that thing. It’s the final frontier of time-wastery, and all you have to do to get it is press that button.

It’s Christmassy, it’s shoppery, It’s simulatory and it’s totally free. And not just because we forgot to allocate a price when we submitted it to GAME. Mainly that though.

This audio data is then converted into game visuals in the form of pulses, creating a secondary level of immersion. As such the use of a microphone headset is strongly recommended. Lurking also features OculusVR(DK1) support which completes the immersive experience.

<span class="bold">Falcon Beertender</span> (by E-Game)
(Alternate download list)

The goal in Falcon Beertender is the same as in <span class="bold">Tapper</span>, and the layout is very similar: as a barkeeper, your job is to serve your customers a mug of beer each. If you don't do this in time before they reach the counter, they will hit you, costing you a life (you start with three). Falcon Beertender enhances the gameplay of Tapper in 2 ways. First, your customers can sometimes be very thirsty: they will toss back an empty beer mug for you to fill. You'll have to catch those mugs and pass them more beer. Secondly, breaking a (glass) mug also costs you a life, so you must make sure that you're not tossing more beer mugs than necessary, lest they crash into a back wall.
