🎮FOSS Games
The FOSS term means not only no cost, but also Freedom, so: ability to learn, mod, fork, change or develop it as much as you like or can (following License).
This not only deserves an own category but also needs to be above the commercial type.
For all below I am also adding link to repository (repo).
