Closing notes
This guide was made with data I've collected and I haven't played some of these games, If I missed something or have anything wrong, please make a comment about it !

Main Source
I reccommend checking Steam Inventory Service, it's where I got all of this info and it keeps up-to-date with new games that get Steam Inventory (not just f2p).
