Prime Gaming: Fresh Wave of Free Games Lands August 14

August is shaping up to be blazing hot for Amazon Prime subscribers. Between iconic comebacks, hidden gems, and over-the-top new releases, Prime Gaming is unleashing a barrage of titles to download or stream. An offer that promises to turn your summer evenings into full-blown gaming marathons.

Every month, Amazon leans on the appeal of Prime Gaming to enrich its subscribers’ experience. And this month, the e-commerce giant is sticking to the plan: no fewer than 12 games available for free, plus 24 more playable via streaming on Amazon Luna. Best part? Every downloaded game stays in your library for life, even if you cancel your subscription. And for the curious, you can always try Amazon Prime free for 30 days to enjoy the games and other exclusive perks.

New Games Added in Early August on Prime Gaming

Prime Gaming kicked off August at full throttle with a wave of instant classics and clever curiosities already available to download (GOG, Amazon Games App, Epic Games Store):

• Sid Meier’s Civilization III Complete — Turn-based strategy in its full edition, including the World and Conquests expansions.
• THIEF: Definitive Edition — Step into the shoes of Garrett, a master of stealth in a city plagued by corruption.
• The Academy: The First Riddle — A school full of puzzles for sharp minds.

New Games Coming August 14

August 14 brings a highly anticipated second wave, mixing retro RPGs, chaotic co-op, and playful poetry. Mark your calendars:

• FATE: The Traitor Soul — An old-school hack’n’slash in the Temple of Fate.
• Filthy Animals | Heist Simulator — Hilarious, chaotic co-op heists (yes, there are tacos).
• Tin Hearts — A poetic puzzle game in the spirit of Lemmings, driven by an emotional story.
• Necroking — Become a necromancer lord and command an army of the undead.

And the month doesn’t slow down: more retro treasures, loot hunting, and a hearty dose of visual adventures:

Starting August 21:

• Labyrinth City: Pierre the Maze Detective — A richly illustrated visual adventure packed with puzzles.
• Silver Box Classics — A D&D compilation including Heroes of the Lance and War of the Lance.

This Month’s Headliners

Two unmissable titles take center stage: the stealth classic THIEF: Definitive Edition and the mechanical poetry of Tin Hearts. Two visions of gaming, two atmospheres, and the same result: impossible to put down.

THIEF: Definitive Edition — Master the shadows, embrace the silence, and rob a city eaten away by corruption. A stealth classic that hasn’t lost its edge.

Tin Hearts — Guide tin soldiers through dioramas filled with ingenuity and emotion. A tribute to creativity and the small stories that leave a big mark.
