Want awesome free games? This month GX .games – the platform where creators and developers meet the 20 million strong audience of the Opera GX gaming browser, is serving up two popular indie games to claim and keep forever.
“This month’s drop is all about contrast. On the one hand we’re introducing the vibrant and extremely playable puzzler, Colorful Recolor, while on the other you’ve got the popular dark fantasy RPG, Sword of the Necromancer. Light or dark? Something for everyone? That’s definitely the vibe with these awesome indie gems available for free on the platform this March,” said Mattijs de Valk, VP of Content Acquisition at Opera.
First to drop on GX.games this month is the kaleidoscopic fast-paced puzzler, Colorful Recolor, where quick thinking and clever preparation are key to success in this color drenched landscape. Created by developer Gagonfe, Colorful Recolor challenges players to paint their way through 100 unique brain teasing levels – unlocking gates, traveling through portals and redirecting themselves with bouncy arrows. Colorful Recolor is available on GX.games until 16th March.
Later this month, the dark fantasy 2D action RPG, Sword of the Necromancer, will be slashing its way onto GX.games. Inspired by games like Enter the Gungeon, Azure Dreams and The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, Sword of the Necromancer is a dungeon-crawler action RPG with Rogue-like elements where you can revive your defeated enemies to make them fight alongside you.
Alongside its vibrant animation, Sword of the Necromancer features a highly engaging storyline, as developer, Grimorio of Games, explains: “The game follows Tama, a former rogue now hired as a bodyguard for the priestess Koko, who is on a pilgrimage. During their journey Koko dies, and Tama brings her corpse to the Necromancer’s dungeon, hoping to obtain the power to bring her back to life. In order to do the impossible, Tama will need to rely even on the very enemies she’s battling against.” Sword of the Necromancer will be available starting from 16th March.
To get your hands on eitherColorful Recolor or Sword of the Necromancer for free this month, just head over to GX.games, click on the game, create an account, and press “claim it.”

SuperGaming announces official launch date for Made-in-India-for-the-world battle royale Indus; epic cinematic trailer also unveiled
SuperGaming, India’s leading game development studio, has officially announced the launch date of its highly anticipated Made-in-India-for-the-world battle royale, Indus. Set to release on October 16th, Indus will be available for download on both Android and iOS platforms, via the Google Play Store and iOS App Store respectively offering players an exciting new battle royale experience.
After recently entering open beta, mass testing amongst players across the world coupled with their invaluable feedback has been instrumental in shaping the game’s development. The immensely successful beta phase attracted players into the action-packed world of Indus, building significant momentum ahead of its release. With over 12.5 million pre-registrations on Android alone, Indus is ready to deliver a fresh, thrilling & immersive battle royale experience, setting the stage for one of the biggest game launches out of India this year.
Speaking on the announcement of the much-anticipated launch, Roby John, Co-founder and CEO of SuperGaming, said, “With the launch of Indus, we’re not just introducing a game—we’re presenting a unique take on the battle royale genre to the world. Our vision with Indus has always been to showcase Indian Art and Culture through unique characters, weapons and stories rooted in Indian heritage while also bringing our dual win condition with Cosmium and a never done before “Grudge” feature to a popular game genre. The overwhelming support from our community during the beta phase has helped us fine-tune key aspects of Indus, and we’re excited for the world to experience Indus and see what the SuperGaming team has built”
Alongside the release date announcement, SuperGaming has also unveiled an epic cinematic trailer. It offers an exciting look where players engage in high-stakes combat across a vast and dynamic battleground.
Centered around Adi, the trailer highlights his journey within the world of Virlok. As the leader of his squad, Adi enters Virlok with two goals: to collect the rare resource Cosmium and to settle a personal score with his nemesis, Pokhran. Viewers can witness Adi’s evolution—starting from a novice, training and sharpening his skills, and culminating in an epic showdown where he finally takes down Pokhran, settling his grudge.
Indus brings a fresh twist to the battle royale genre with its dual victory condition. Players can win by either being the last person standing or by strategically collecting Cosmium which spawn in the last circle of Nirvana, adding a new layer of complexity and depth to traditional gameplay.
The trailer also offers a sneak peek into the dynamics of Cosmium collection and Grudge, a unique in-game feature that allows players to settle scores with their opponents. Additionally, the Grudge system allows players to track down and face off against the opponents who defeated them.
