List of all free Windows 8 Store Xbox games | Added Tiny Troopers

Just a reminder: Galactic Reign doesn't work any more.

And something else: It seems that the web based version of Wordament has quietly vanished, can't find any information about how/why it's been retired, it's just not there any more. :(

I think it was just a beta. Looks like it went the way of 1 vs. 100

Yep, Galactic Reign's last day was 2/28.

Strange about Wordament...It was working recently...wonder how long ago it disappeared?

I'm assuming that the achievements from the 360 version of WSOP don't automatically unlock on the Win8 version since no one on TA has completed it yet?

 
can't believe hexic is back.  that was a free game that came on my xbox 360 so long ago...and it does not run on my windows 8.1...just get stuck on the title screen

 
I'm disappointed that the WSOP Full House Pro Win8 achievements don't carry over from the 360 version. Mostly because I used up all my chips getting the achievements on 360, and now I no longer have the chips to get the new achievements on Win8.

Warning to any OCD achievement hunters out there, WSOP Win8 does NOT have timestamps even though you must be online to even play it. That also voids any achievement streaks if you care about that as well.

 
Ubisoft Xbox Rabbids Big Bang was indeed free for a limited time in Windows Store, but is no longer free now.

The Gunstringer: Dead Man Running is being delisted after today.

Disney The Little Mermaid: Undersea Treasures! has already been delisted and the unreleased DLC will never be released leaving 17 unobtainable achievements.

 
I just installed Windows 8 the other day on my laptop (Thanks AppBuilder Rewards for the free upgrade!).  This was a great list.  It does seem that Glacier Blast has been delisted as it coming up as not available.

Also of note you still have Gunstringer and Disney The Little Mermaid in the OP which have been mentioned previously and have been delisted for some time now.
