If you encounter them, I'd recommend reporting them — not only are they against YouTube's ToS, they are also maliciously preying upon people.

they are also maliciously preying upon people.

Any recommendations where I can report free to play games?

That's a big claim, that every free to play game is maliciously preying on people. Here are some counterexamples: Unciv, Minetest, Shattered Pixel Dungeon. I honestly would have expected to find more love and less hate for free games on a community that is usually such a FLOSS advocate.

I haven't seen any advertisements for those games, which i think op referred to.

[–] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Oh, from what they said, it seemed like they were referring to the games themselves, rather than adverts about those games. But if they did mean the ads, then I agree, all ads are bad because they try to manipulate you to spend money - not just any specific ad or group of ads.
