Free games that add to library score
Ok so I was wondering if there are any free games that add to library score

I ask this because I only have 2 paid games on my account but my library score is 5.

I assume some of my games add to the score so I wanted to know if there are any others

I dont know what you mean by score, all games free or purchased adds to the number of games you own and are installed in your account.

Yeah, any of the free games will likely add to that tally.

Only free for a limited time games do. And those given away on key sites like indiegala.

As long as they are not in the Learning or Profile Features Limited phases.

As for the collector badge, don't quote me on this but I _believe_ that any F2P game that's not in learning which you've spent money in adds to that count.

Ah yes, my error, and Hotsauce is correct (as usual).

Free-to-play games generally don't afaik. There's also the other things that go with the free-to-play games like not being able to earn card drops unless you spend money on them, and them not appearing on your library should you delete them. If you spend money on said game, they can show up but again, I haven't tested this enough to be sure.

If you seriously want to increase the number of games owned, check out Humble Bundle, Indie Gala, Fanatical et al. Bundles of games sold LEGITIMATELY far cheaper.

Avoid the cheapo dodgy key resellers whose names I cannot mention.

There are many games that don't count towards the badge regardless if you "paid" for them or not.

1. Free2Play games don't count. Unless you paid to make it a premium license. This is different than the free for a limited time games.

2. Games removed by Valve don't count. https://steam.madjoki.com/apps/banned

3. There are also games that are in the "Learning" phase...

4. And also games with "Profile Features Limited..."
