Here is a list of Pirated Game Sites!
A list of tools, sites, downloads, software, etc. for Pirated Games. I maintain this by myself with the help with some others like Tasky Lizard and Le Fishe. It is updated constantly if I need to update something, or remove something. I also add stuff as well every now and then if I discover something sweet.
- Moderators' choice: RARBG - Safe torrents, best quality.
Other noteworthy mentions:
- 1337X - Has lots of content, well moderated. Before going there though, don't torrent from IGGGAMESCOM, haxNode, nosTeam, crackingpatching, or CracksHash as they are suspicious users and had uploaded malware in the past.
- Mac-Torrents.io - Mac torrents.
- NXMAC - MAC games.
- RuTor - Russian Torrent Tracker with many games, mostly repacks.
- RuTracker - Russian Torrent Forum. One of the best sites to get games that are good in quality and well-seeded.
- Rustorka - Russian Torrent Tracker.

- Torrents.csv - Easy viewing torrent search engine.
- Tuttop - Russian Torrent site that has many well-seeded torrents that are normally kept up-to-date.
- TorrentMac - Mac Torrents.
- MacDrop - Mac Torrents.
I do not recommend The Pirate Bay or Kickass Torrents at all due to how easy it is to pick up malware.
To torrent, use these programs:
- Top choice: Qbittorrent
Other noteworthy mentions:
- BiglyBT - Torrent client that is available on PC and your mobile Device
- Deluge - Probably the most popular alternative to qBitTorrent.

- Transmission - Open-Source, Lightweight, and fast Torrent Client
- Tixati - Torrent Client that can be Portable and is pretty simple to use
- LibTorrent - One of the most popular Torrent Clients that is open-source

These games normally have community remakes, source ports, alternative versions, etc.
- Plutonium - Free, Community made remaster of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, Modern Warfare 3, and World at War. Provides a little bit of a fresh new experience, fixes problems with the original games, and is very good. Provides server lists, dedicated servers, online gameplay, and customizabale options for your gameplay.
- OpenRA - Free, Open-Source, and community made remaster of Command & Conquer: Tiberian Daw, Red Alert 1, and DUNE 2000. Its pretty good and feels a bit like the original game with fixes, refreshment, better graphics, etc. Their official website provides more details.
- PowerSlaveEX - PowerSlaveEX was a free and open-source, PowerSlave Playstation Version source-port/remaster for PC which was taken down years ago. I only have the Windows Version of this game available including the mouse moving fix patch (Without this patch, it would make the game completely unplayable). In this game, you play as a marine fighting against the evil, Alien forces in Karnak, Egypt that killed the people there and turned them into egyption themed mosters like Anubis Headed Men, Mummies, Leopard Monsters, etc. There are an assortment of weapons from a Machete, Revolver, M60, a FlameThrower, Grenades, Homing Snake Rockets, etc. Another thing about this game is that there are powerups that give you special abilities and cool stats. If you want info about this awesome FPS game that was probably as good as DOOM, watch Br0leg's YouTube video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyXDWWzMvXw.
Best site overall: CS.RIN.RU - Steam Underground Community - Best place for any game, this should be the first place you check. Does not allow Scene releases.

- GOG-Games - GOG Games.
- Mobilism - Mobile apps and games.
- MyAbandonware - Mostly consists of free downloads for old, retro, and abandoned games that aren't sold in official stores like Steam, Epic, GOG, etc. This won't have every classic game you want (For example: Doom, Duke Nukem 3D, and BLOOD), but if you are into Abandonware stuff, this is a treasure trove for you!
- Online-fix.me - Online multiplayer games.
- Ovagames - DDL Games.

Oculus Quest users can download games from this thread on CS.RIN.RU forum. This post is also helpful.
For a good alternative to CS.RIN.RU on VR Games is VRPirates Discord and Telegram. The Telegram is better since it has more content and provides downloads. Discord is inactive for a good amount of some days, so I would recommend the Telegram. VRPirates Telegram and VRPirates Discord.

Using a privacy-focused DNS can speed up your browsing experience as well as make your network traffic more secure. They can also prevent you from your ISP snooping around on what sites you are going to and what you are doing on your web searches which is good for Piracy. (NOT a VPN substitute):
My Choice: Adguard DNS
More trusted DNS providers can be found here.
NOTE: I don't recommend you using CloudFare's DNS or your ISP's DNS for pirating as they can spy on what you are browsing on. You can get caught from your ISP.
- Recommending a VPN service is very difficult, so we'd like to point your VPN related questions towards r/VPN.
- Privacy Tools' VPN recommendations
- VPN Comparison Chart
Tor is NOT a VPN, it will not protect you when torrenting! Free VPNs aren't worth it and always find a way to make money off of you, whether its from logging, spyware, tracking, you name it! ProtonVPN and RiseUpVPN are fine, but you cannot torrent with them on the free version.
