Emulation
Playnite
Okay, so this is not an emulation resource
per se, but this is a wonderful program to use to sort
ALL your emulators and games. It's very simple to use and it's so great to have all your games accessible from one program.
Video Games Emulation for Newbies
Great starting point to understand the basics of emulation software.

Flashpoint
The best resource to play Flash, HTML, Unity and other web games. RIP Flash. :(

The program I use to emulate Android games. Can be a real pain to set up for certain games and won't run Epic Seven for me at the moment.

Free Downloadable Games
Free to Play Games on Steam and
Demo Games on Steam
TONS AND TONS of games on Steam have free demos or are completely free to download and all you need is a Steam account and the desktop app!
Nova Ragnarok Online
Okay, I know Ragnarok Online is ancient by now but it's still fun! I used to play the official free server way, way back in high school but the official servers are now just pay-to-win hot garbage with bots everywhere. Sad. NovaRO is a moderately sized Renewal community that's filled with friendly people and active GMs, plus increased exp and drop rates! Give it a shot if you like laid-back MMOs with cute graphics.
MDickie
Yes, THAT McDickie that made such mindboggling games as The You Testament (in which you can
punch Jesus) and Wrestling Revolution. If you watch Vargskelethor Joel's streams, he's played quite a few of these. Honestly? They're pretty fun to play for a laugh.
