You can use this FOSS tool to automatically claim those games.

Some even work pretty well on Linux using the Heroic Launcher.

I treat launchers like I treat social media. No new ones after around five years ago. So a pass from me. I have enough games.

Does that still work? Last updated over a year ago and the free games are usually protected by some rather creative captchas.

Works for Prime and GOG. Epic sometimes works outside the docker container, but sometimes you still get a CAPTCHA still. There's an active discussion for fixing Epic inside a docker container.

For the record, the Epic Game Store launched on December 6, 2018, and is over 6 years old now.
