These are games needing review, you can submit a review here. There is a number between 1 and 10 besides them, this indicates rough priority – 1 being highest, 10 being lowest. Games that are inexpensive are separated into their own category at the bottom of this list, separate from the free games.
I’ve also included a few archive.org games in the main listings – these are old games which have been largely abandoned and which Archive.org, a non-profit, is offering for online play. Most however are at the very bottom of this page. These are games from the DOS and earlier days mainly.
