This is a place to post limited-time giveaways of full video games that are then yours to keep forever at no cost (i.e. this is not for steam sales, free-to-play games, free weekends, competition giveaways, or free in-game items!)

Please don't repost stuff that's already been posted or stuff that breaks feddit.uk rules (i.e. don't be a dick!)

I feel you. Think of it this way: by signing up for a trial and claiming a license for these games, you are costing Amazon money. That's the only reason I have an Epic store account.

When you claim a game from Amazon, is tied to an active subscription, or can you download it and install it later regardless of subscription status?

As far as I know, it's tied to your account, but not to a subscription.

According to the FAQ at the bottom of the page:

Once you claim this game, the game is yours to keep forever. If you cancel your Prime membership, you will still be able to download and play the games you have previously claimed in the Amazon Games app. If you would like to claim new games, you will need to have an active Prime membership.

Though I've never tested this myself.
