FREE at Ovi Store!!! Avatar, Spider-Man, H.A.W.X., Assassins Creed, Settlers, Angry Birds Seasons and MORE! All free at Ovi Store right now!

| May 2, 2011 | 80 Replies

Today we reported that Angry Birds Rio was Free at the Ovi Store and that possibly Fruit Ninja and Worms HD were free too. For some reason, even more premium titles are appearing FREE for your (legal :p) downloading joy. These are all awesome games, and worth their price (when they weren’t free) but now even more brilliant now that they’re free. Use the Ovi Store app on your phone to search and find the following apps.

 

  • Avatar
  • Spider-Man Total Mayhem HD
  • H.A.W.X HD
  • Worms HD
  • Fruit Ninja
  • GT Racing: Motor Academy HD
  • Settlers HD
  • Hero of Sparta
  • Assassins Creed
  • Guitar Rock Tour HD
  • Angry Birds Rio
  • Angry Birds Seasons

There may be more.

Update: And there are! Cheers folks for the update!

  • Sims 3 HD
  • Monopoly Classic HD
  • Pac-man Championship
  • Farm Frenzy
  • Tetris HD

These all appear in addition to the paid version. The icon in Ovi Store has a little yellow gift ribbon on it. I’m not sure what this promotion is, is it some  good gesture thing? Timed, unlabelled free trial thing? Ovi Store Hack? What are we celebrating?  These all play fine btw.It’s also not the first time Nokia’s given us free premium games. Galaxy on Fire, Rollercoaster, NFS Shift and Real Golf 2011.

What did you download for free? Any other yellow ribbon apps we’ve missed? I already had half of these (paid) and don’t feel bad at all that they’re free now (as I expect some might be after having paid for them) as they were and still are worth the money. Although  unrelated, it’s nice that after TreeMaker Ovi Store install fail and no refund, I get all these for free. :D

Cheers to The, der vogelmann, and Lasse Bodilsen or the update on the additional free apps!

(Mine won’t download over WiFi for some reason. Good thing Ovi Store has no silly 20mb limit imposed like, er Windows Phone.)

    Just got AB Rio and Fruit Ninja for nothing. Some kind of gesture to Symbian users for the lack of usability in some departments? :P

    • Jay Montano says:

      Yes, “Sorry for our shitty browser and not being able to put the spectacular MicroB in when we had such awesomeness in our pocket”

      Camb078′S guessing it has something to do with Ovi Store’s Birthday? Some time in May?

      Others mentioned it’s cos OBL died. :S

    • der vogelmann says:

      they are all free in germany :)

      allerdings sind die vollpreisversionen auch noch alle in der liste drin,
      speziell bei den gameslofttiteln musst du jedes spiel einzeln über die suchfunktion finden,
      wenn du dir einfach alle gameslofttitel anzeigen lässt findet er nur die kostenpflichtigen varianten :)

      *sry for my reply in german,
      my english is not the best ;)

      • Patata says:

        • klawwaryoshi says:

          also found all of them in the german-store :)

          (some of them i really wished longer to have) while the download-manger of the N8 struggles with the data :D

  14. manya says:

    i not see any of these games in my ovi store c6-01

  15. reebi says:

    I can see them here in the uk but when I download they try to install and then it comes up with an error. I’ve tried restarting and the same thing happens, any clue how I can install them?

    • OSagnostic says:

      Try via Ovi suite. Go to free game page and change URL to include /download at end.

      eg http://store.ovi.com/content/120054/download

      If it is a sis.dm file use something like notepad+ . Delete everything before z on 4th line & save. This will now be a sis file so run file and will transfer to phone via Ovi store.

      This worked for me, was failing to load large games as wifi dropped out.

  16. Poooy says:

    When i am searching,i cant find the Yellow ribbons,but has ‘FREE’ mentioned.The same ? :P ,Imn its not some trail version rite?

  17. Rübenstecker says:

    KATEGORIEN>Sammlungen>”Spielgeschenk des Sommers”

  18. Antonio says:

  19. Scottydoo says:

    WSOP Hold Em Legend is free
    Bounce Boing Battle is free

  20. Antonio says:

  21. dadgio1979 says:

    im from saudi and its not free, i tried using proxy server from countries which it is being offered free ( poland, germany, and others) it worked and i downloaded all of the free HD games!

    • marc says:

      how did you do that

      • dadgio1979 says:

        I downloaded the games via PC and transferred to my N8 and installed. Once you have a proxy server from a country which these games are being offered. Open Ovi Store log-in and locate the free games with the gold/yellow ribbon, click it and in the option, choose send to friend, click it, now in the address tab change the last part “send to friend” into “download” (example store dot ovi dot com/content/117094/send-to-friend make it like this store dot ovi dot com/content/117094/download) click enter and a new window will appear asking you to save it.

        once you finished download, the file will appear as xxxxxxxx.sis.dm to make it useful, open it with notepad++ (just google it and install) highlight the the first 4 lines until the cursor is in the front of the letter z, then hit del, after save as, now it will be a simple sis or sisx file which you can install in your mobile. goodluck.
