Welcome to Freeware Friday, a weekly column showcasing excellent games that you can play free of charge!

It seems that, in the end, it all comes back to the rogue-like. We've featured so many here on Freeware Friday, and for good reason. They are much more complex and replayable than most retail games, and range from the incomprehensible graphics of Dwarf Fortress to the slick presentation of Transcendence or Triangle Wizard. Notrium definitely falls into the second category, and the mixture of survival and invention distinguished it from its many established colleagues. It may be several years old, but it's still fantastic, and an amazing game for the low, low cost of free.
