What are some excellent free games/total conversions that are worth playing the whole thing? (lemm.ee)

I used up play a ton of Doom mods years ago and a lot of the TCs were fun but lacked substance beyond the surface. Some of the new ones are cool but overly complex. (The Sonic cart game has an hour long tutorial before you start). I was a big fan of Simon’s Destiny, the Castlevania mod for Doom.

Basically I’m looking to see suggestions for free games or total conversions that are worth playing. Before I go spending money onSteam releases, I wanna check out what I might have missed the last few years.

Enderal, a total conversion mod for Skyrim. Free, just requires ownership of the skyrim base game or special edition (there's a version for either).

Has a whole new map, reworked classes, changes to combat, banger OST (here's my favorite, hits incredibly hard when you're listening to it in-game at a tavern) and the story is just incredible. I still think about it, and the choices I made, years later. Dozens of hours long, moreso if you are a completionist.
