Hey folks, I hope everyone out there is doing well. We're doing okay here near Salem MA. Currently not under lockdown but doing my part by staying away from people.
I wanted to put together a quick post of some stuff to do whether you're stuck in the house or not. A lot of it is free!

Get it? Stuck in the house?
In addition to the stuff below, the Internet Archive is an insanely huge rabbit hole you can lose yourself in. There are tons of videos, books, magazines and more like:
Fangoria archive
Pulp magazines
Home Console games
Classic Arcade Games
1975 Haunted Mansion Operations Manual
Coloring Books
Movies
Streaming horror service Shudder is offering a 30 day free trial for new users with promo code SHUTIN.
Also, if you're a horror fan, the Spooky Vegan has a rundown of the freaky flicks currently available on Shudder, Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon Prime.
Books
Speaking of Amazon, you can get a free, two month Kindle Unlimited trial if you sign up before April 30th. New users only.
Audible Stories has a selection of streaming free audio books for tiny tykes to teens as well as literary classics. You don't even have to sign up, just click and listen.
Fusion Books is offering a few issues of their gaming magazine Fusion as free PDFs. Each issue has articles on retro, current gen, indie, and tabletop gaming. (Links: 1, 2, 3) They're also giving away the book 8-bit Kids, which I highly recommend if you're a gamer and grew up in the 70s and/or 80s.
Comic Books
The Digital Comic Museum is an online archive dedicated to Golden Age comics. You can read online, or if you sign up for a free account, you can download them. Pro Tip: There is a search bar at the top of the page.
Tabletop Games
Cryptozoic Entertainment is having a huge sale on a lot of their games and offer free shipping with orders over $50. They have several Rick & Morty themed games, the DC Deckbuilding game, and even a Challenge of the Superfriends card game!
If you're looking to get your RPG on without actually gathering friends together, Astral is offering the use of their virtual tabletop software, with all paid features enabled, through April.
Video Games
Steam has a handful of free games: Tomb Raider, Deiland, Headsnatchers, Drawful 2, Goat of Duty, Pleasure PuzzlePortrait, Lara Croft and The Temple of Osiris.
I grabbed Tomb Raider and Goat of Duty. Goat is a lot of fun if you like FPS deathmatch!
Epic Games has The Stanley Parable and Watch Dogs in addition to a handful of other always free to play games.
I also have a ton of unused Steam codes to give away!
Feel free to take a couple and I will update the post as games are claimed.
If you comment to claim, make sure your account has an email address or let me know how to send the codes to you. Email or Twitter would be best.
You're on your own to look these up, I may not be going out of the house much but I am not going to link all these :)
