Who doesn't love getting games for free? I know I do. I am always on the lookout for more free games to enjoy on the Steam Deck, and Fanatical is giving away a fantastic one to add to our libraries. To celebrate the Lunar New Year, Fanatical is giving away 112 Operator, a simulation management game where you play as an emergency services operator to direct emergency vehicles to their destinations to save lives.

While the interface is geared for Keyboard and Mouse controls, it does play well on the Steam Deck and can be enjoyable. You will need to deal with controlling a mouse, but with the Deck's trackpads, it is definitely manageable. The game itself is rated Playable due to needing to manually bring up the virtual keyboard and small in-game text, but neither stops it from being playable and fun.

Fanatical is giving the game away for the next 5 days, ending on February 3rd, and they are Steam keys. All you have to do to get it is go to the store page and subscribe to their email newsletter. Once done, they will send you the key, and you can just redeem it on your Steam account. This is probably one of the better giveaways I have seen since it is for a Steam copy of the game, not Epic or GOG.

112 Operator is also available on Steam and is on sale for $4.99, but I would just recommend getting it on Fanatical for free.
