From time to time, Steam runs promotions where developers can give away a game for free for a limited time. This week, the selected game is Overcome Your Fears – Caretaker, a title that originally released in October 2025 but didn’t get much attention.
Still, it offers an interesting experience, especially for fans of atmospheric horror, with first-person exploration, strong sound design, and a VHS-style look that fits the tone well.
As mentioned, you can claim Overcome Your Fears – Caretaker for free on Steam. You just need to go to the game’s store page and click “Add to account,” and it will stay in your library forever. You have time to do this until Thursday, May 7. After that, the game will return to its listed price of $5.99.
In the game, you play as Steve Jackson, a 19-year-old who agrees to look after a friend’s house while they are away. During his stay, strange events begin to happen in the small town where the house is located.
