Welcome

The aim of this project is to make an auto installer scripts for the free (legal) games, which can run with Retropie on Raspberry Pi.

ROMS

All listed games/ROMs should be a non-demo versions of the games, or unfinished games with implemented scoring system/end game function, etc….

Games listed as a part of this project are freeware games, which I found over there… If you see any of those games listed here as illegal (should not be the case, but you never know…), please let me know asap! I don’t want to be a part of any criminal activity. It’s a non profit project to help with installing free games to play!

HOMEBREW GAME COLLECTIONS:

HOW TO INSTALL ROMs ? Please see Installers README

You are allowed to download the ROMs/archives, but you may not be allowed to sell them!!! All the games are the property of it’s developers/owners. See attached txt file named equally for details/licence on particular game, or contact the owner directly.

All games listed as a part of this project have been approved by it’s owner as allowed to be shared here.

HISTORY

Firstly I’ve tried to create a script for fetching and unpacking ROMs one by one from several sources. The ROMs of the games are/were spread around the internet on various sites and in various archives (zip, rar, 7z,..). Some blocked by captcha and some, known by name, had also dead links :( It unsuccessfully ended with so many fails and really…really… long (non working) script.

Then I decided to create this project - a place with all the freeware ROMs, screenshots and details about the games in txt format - all in one - together - in one nice collection - from which the installation will run smoothly and quickly.
