There are are many games that are released to the public to print out and play. Right now I am not in a position to be able to buy many games so I love the idea of being able to print some new games. I am not talking about games that people have scanned so others can print them. The games I am referring to are the games that people created for gamers to play and enjoy at no cost.
I would appreciate your comments on any of these games you have played.
*I have updated the list to allow public additions. I was able to keep up with all the great new free games being released!

Quote: Godswake is an Adventure game for 2-4 players that plays in about one hour per player. The setting is the near future (or if you read this after 2012, an alternate Earth) when apparently the world is falling apart, but in a very unexpected, mythic, supernatural way. The characters – represented by the players – race against each other to get their hands on an allegedly extremely powerful relic amidst the chaos, with what they may not only be able stop the destruction, but also to assume a god-like power for themselves.

A free print 'n play version of FFG's popular Battlestar Galactica game. The game plays 3-5 players, uses dice, and can be played in 30-60 minutes. Overall I think it replicates the feel of the original game quite well, but jettisons the overlong playing time.

A web-published 2-player non-collectable Dr. Who card game.
Why I think you might like this game:
1. Twelve Doctors (TD) deals with the Who Universe in a completely different way than all the other games that have tackled the sprawling subject matter. This is not a game about collecting VPs, or completing dusty objectives in museums, or about ferrying mythical objects from one far-flung planet to the next. TD is a game about thwarting the Master and destroying his minions.
2. TD is a fast-paced Who game.
3. The Master player gets to do really cool things: destroy planets, start interstellar wars, mesmerise the Doctor's companions, use death-dealing gizmos, deploy forcefields, and invade Nexus points with all of the coolest villainy from around Muttar's Spiral.
4. The Doctor has all the gadgets and assistants that you would expect from a decent Who-game. Plus he's able to drop temporal marauders into black holes, or give them a slap with Venusian Aikido, or give them a serious headache with the Hand of Omega.
5. All of the iconic villains appear amongst the cards (not every card is a Dalek or Cyberman).
6. A great deal of the Doctor's assistants make an appearance. Not all, but most.
7. The game is drawn from the entire run - not just the current iteration of Who. So you will see the Axos from Seeds of Doom, the Wirrn from Arc in Space, Kroll from The Power of Kroll, etc. I think you get the idea.
8. All of the Doctors can play a part. Even Paul McGann.
9. The game is designed by someone that has read about 50+ Dr. Who Target paperbacks, played and run a huge number of Who adventures using the FASA RPG, and is a MASSIVE Tom Baker fan.

Publisher: TroisStudio
http://troisstudio.blogspot.com
Print & Play
In 1822 Brazil had become independent of the Kingdom of Portugal, but in 1825 the United Provinces of the River Plate challenged the new Empire, supporting the separatist movement of the Province of Cisplatina. Dom Pedro I do not hesitate and sent his powerful navy to defeat the rebels and faced his first War on the Continent! During three years, the armed forces of the two most powerful South American countries met in the War of Cisplatina!
"Cisplatina" is a board game for 2-3 players created by Julio Trois, whose theme is the War of Independence of the Uruguay. For 10 rounds, the armies of Brazil, Argentina and Uruguayan rebels waging battles for control of the Uruguayan territory.
"Cisplatina" is a tactical game, where military strategy is very important. Each player must organize his troops, composed of tiles of infantry, cavalry, artillery and ships. The movement is point to point, and the clashes follow the style of the best wargames, using dices and tables, for the resolution of battles.

We are in Mecca, the holiest Islamic city in Saudi Arabia and prophet Muhammad's birthplace. Year after year, Mecca receives more than a three million faithful on one of their faith's pillars: the Holy Pilgrimage or Hajj.
We are going to access the inside of the Holy Mosque of Mecca right now, the main shrine of Muslim pilgrimage during the Hajj... the imposing Sacred Kaaba is just in front of us...
In order to avoid crowds during the massive influx of the faithful in the Holy Mosque the organizers have devised an innovative system to control the placement and organization of the pilgrims during their prayers to Allah.
The player who successfully introduces more pilgrims in the Holy Place according to this organization system will be the winner.

At its core, "The Age of Sovereigns" is a military strategy, but the game is not limited strictly to combating. An important part of gameplay is the construction of buildings (common and special buildings, 26 total). Due to these constructions players can multiply their wealth and / or fame, along with the development of the army.
The game is divided into various stages. In the era of "Kingdoms Rising" players gradually get bonuses specific to the kingdom. In the era of the "End of Times" all events are resolved. These two steps constitute the main part of the game, when the players give a variety of orders and fight. In the era of "Destiny" victory points and fines are scored.
The dice are not used during the battles, so the game is not that much random
The game has low downtime and relatively short playing time (30 minutes per player).
GAME COMPONENTS (For Two Players):
A. PnP files include:
1) 3 sovereign cards for each player;
2) 5 destiny cards;
3) 40 combat cards;
4) 8 kingdom bonus cards;
5) 14 End of Times cards;
6) 2 sets of 10 order tokens for each kingdom;
7) 2 sets of 33 building tokens for each kingdom;
8) 2 sets of 15 army unit tokens for each kingdom;
9) 2 sets of 2 (Barbarians) and 3 (Paladins) special army unit tokens for each kingdom;
10) 5 rebellion tokens;
11) other tokens: 6 revolutionary tokens, 9 plague tokens, 1 glory token, 2 Great Conqueror tokens; 6 defend token.
12) 1 playfield for two players.
B. Components NOT Provided (May be Taken From Other Games):
Tokens to represent gold talents. Besides, it is preferable to substitute the tokens of common and special army units by the miniatures from other games (we use Risk: Godstorm).

"Thirteen days in October 1962 nearly brought the world to the brink of thermonuclear war. Fortunately, with a combination of political maneuvering and luck, President Kennedy resisted his advisors' insistance for invasion and finally convinced Nikita Krushchev to remove the Soviet nuclear missiles in Cuba in exchange for removal of US "Jupiter" missiles in Turkey. What would have happened if no agreement had been reached? What form would the US invasion of Cuba have taken if Kennedy had listened to his advisors? What would the Soviet response be? Time to find out!"

Each player starts with 10 cents and a pawn. By moving through the ever-changing board, you attempt to gain more money than your oponents. Each space has an action associated with it, which can change as the game goes on. These actions can gain you cents, cause you to lose cents, change your location on the board, etc.

"The US was engaged in the Vietnam Conflict from the late 1950’s until the mid 1970’s costing the lives of over 60,000 Americans and over 3,000,000 North Vietnamese, thus being the first American defeat in war. What if the American military had decided to launch an invasion of North Vietnam to force them to sue for peace? Could things have turned out differently or would things have been made even worse?"
