Mouthole, a bizarre and captivating indie title, is currently free to claim on Steam, but this opportunity won't last long. The game will soon be delisted from Valve's platform, joining the growing list of titles removed from Steam each year. While games disappear from Steam for various reasons, the developers of Mouthole have chosen to give it away freely before its departure.

With Steam recently hitting over 40 million concurrent users, it's easy for unique games like Mouthole to get lost in the flood of new releases. In 2024 alone, more than 18,000 games were added to the platform, making free gems like this particularly valuable discoveries for players.

Developed by Anything Nose Productions, Mouthole currently holds a 'Very Positive' rating on Steam, suggesting it's a hidden gem worth claiming. The developers announced in a recent update that they would cease operations, prompting this free giveaway before the game's removal.

This pixel-art adventure offers players a truly unique experience - exploring 10 distinct worlds by journeying through their own mouth. The game combines puzzle-solving, fitness mechanics (necessary for survival), and even stock market investing according to its quirky description. With 11 possible endings and strong emphasis on narrative and exploration, Mouthole promises a memorable, if unconventional, gaming experience.

While the Steam version will disappear soon, the developers have confirmed the game will remain available on itch.io, with its soundtrack on Bandcamp - good news for those who miss the current free window.

Mouthole isn't the only free game currently on Steam. Players have until May 20 to claim Cast & Spell, a multiplayer spellcasting battle game in early access. After the promotion ends, it will retail for $8.

The delisting of Mouthole follows a trend of games being removed from Steam. Notably, Warhammer 40K: Armageddon and Sanctus Reach will also leave the platform after May 19, though unlike Mouthole, these won't be available for free before their departure.
