When it comes to free fun and free entertainment, free trial online games are tough to beat.
Project Entropia
Project Entropia is a massive virtual universe with a real cash economy. But don't let that scare you. The economy is a good thing because it is helping development and creativity.
Players can join and play without any money, which is why we have it here with free trial online games. Together with people from all over the world you experience adventure, form societies, and participate in the creation of a brand new world.
On the planet Calypso, players use the PED, Project Entropia dollar, as currency to invest in their personal development. Assets acquired in the game may be cashed out in real world money.
In fact, towards the end of 2004, a virtual island on Calypso was auctioned. A treasure island actually, that sold for $26,500 US. This investment will re-pay the new owner with fees from hunters and miners as well as from the sale of lots for houses and shops.
More recently, it has been announced that one investor paid around $100,000USD for property in the Project Entropia game. And it turns out, he accumulated about $25,000 toward the purchase, from buying and selling stuff within the online game.
Since you came here looking for free trial online games, let me assure you that there are ways to get in on the economy, even starting from scratch.
Some super-nice players have been known to help newbies by giving them guns and ammo to hunt with.
You can earn some PEDs in Project Entropia by being a runner, aka mob bait. Meaning, while you run, one of the local critters, called a mob, chases you. The hunter who pays you then kills the mob and gets whatever loot may be recovered from the carcass.
Finding friendly and helpful players is another way to learn how to earn some PEDS. Reading the plentiful reference material will help you to get started, too.

Underlight
In our quests for free trial online games, we found Underlight to be a unique and interesting take on the RPG, role playing game.
This is an online game that plays a bit differently than you may be used to. In Underlight, the evolution and direction of the game result mostly from how the players participate. It is more player directed than game directed.
The game setting is a dream city of dreamers (players) and many varieties of nightmares. The nightmares are the enemies plaguing the happiness of dreamers everywhere.
Dreamers band together against these enemies for both experience, and for the essences left behind by "collapsed" nightmares. These essences become the seed of difficulties between dreamers. Fighting and wars result from conflicting beliefs.
As for free trial online games, play the full online game of Underlight free for 30 days. After that, continue to be part of the dream game for $10 per month.
