The OG free goat is Beneath a Steel Sky, which is freeware, has art by Dave gibbons of Watchmen fame. Definitely always worth a play if you have never checked it out.
I love Beneath a Steel Sky to bits. It's worth remembering that it didn't start out as freeware, though. Revolution just decided one day that they were making enough money off of Broken Sword or something, so they decided to make it free. Actually, I don't know why they did it. But it certainly was a grand gesture. It's one of the best games I've ever played, period.
