Depends. At one time the elder scrolls gave it's game away for free. It was not malware or dangerous. It was if you bought the original release and all the dlc's, you got the upgraded version for free. Not all games are dangerous that are free, but this year has been bad on steam. I suggest looking into the developer of the game and see their social feeds. If there lacking in information, then yes, that might be a red flag maybe not to play them.

I see thank you, right now they are in my library but I havent downloaded them there should not be a problem if they are just there right?

I dont think so. What kind of danger?
Steam occasionaly gifts some games as I find them in my Library.
Crash drive 2 and We were there to name 2.

Well I wasnt gifted anything by Steam, they were just made free and I got them. Danger of stealing what I have bought or credit card information stuff like that. Would you keep those games in your library? Steam gifts games to accounts? I did not know that. Cool.

The developer, publisher decided to give them away for free for a limited time.

The mal in malware stands for malicious so malicious malware is pleonasm .
