You're right, I haven't played many freeware games. What do you recommend?
I have a short memory so it'll mostly be new stuff:
Nanobots: Lots of fun, good writing and clever puzzles. A commerical sequel is apparently in the works.
Ben Jordan Series: The first two games are so-so, but it starts getting better at the 3rd and 4th game.
Heartland: Short 1st person horror game.
Mental Repairs, Inc.: Surprisingly high quality for a freeware game.
Reactor 09: Awesome game with a couple of annoying puzzles.
Nathan's Second Chance: A feel-good game. I have no other way to describe it.

I don't know, but it sure looks cool. Almost looks like "Lord of the Rings" when they're above Minis Morgoul or something.

Okay, I hope I don't get anyone mad for doing this but I wanted to mix things up a bit.

This scene has 4 games represented in it. Can you get all 4? This could be really easy or hard, I dunno, heh. I apologize in advance if I wasn't supposed to alter the game this way

Nice one! As long as you don't expect everyone to be so creative.
So far I only know 2...

Too difficult... I can only recognize, maybe, something Kyrandia and something Phantasmagoria (on a second thought, I'm not even sure of this one).

It's a good variation, Phod!

Found the third. Don't think I will find the last one.

Haha.. feel free to make guesses of individual games and I'll say if it's one of the four to make it easier. Then I just pick who goes next unless someone gets more correct.

I will say that all four games are mainstream and not obscure.

The skulls come from Shivers and, as Jonatan said, the woman is from Ripper.

The blue Options button is definitely 'The Legend of Kyrandia'. It was green and (I think yellow), in the other two games.

But the background... one of the Tex Murphy games perhaps? Under a Killing Moon?
