To ensure you get Hero's Hour for free, go to GX.games, click on the game, create an account, and press "claim it."

The new games are part of the new "Monthly Drop" by GX.games, an initiative that offers new indie games for free to the Opera GX audience each month. These games are free when accessed via both Opera and Opera GX.

But the fun doesn't stop there! Gamers hungry for additional high-quality free indie games can also still play many more free games on GX.games, like Last Horizon , Windmills , Textorcist , and Chronicon (only till 22/11).

Hero's Hour will be available to be claimed for free between Nov 17 and Nov 23, 2022 .
