How to Use the FreeToGame MCP in Windsurf

Q: How does FreeToGame help me discover multiplayer titles in Windsurf?

You ask Cascade for specific genres, and it uses filtergames to fetch matching multiplayer titles. The agent parses the tags and presents the top-rated options directly in your chat panel.

Q: Can I use FreeToGame to check if a shooter runs on my laptop using Windsurf?

Yes, Cascade calls getgame to fetch the minimum system requirements for any specific shooter. It compares the required RAM and GPU against your local system specs to tell you if it runs.

Q: How do I configure the FreeToGame MCP Server in my Windsurf setup?

Add the server configuration to your /.codeium/windsurf/mcpconfig.json file under the mcpServers key. Cascade automatically detects the tools on your next reload.

Q: Does this MCP tool let Cascade chain multiple game searches together?

Cascade uses listgames to get a broad list and then runs getgame on specific IDs to compare system specs. It does this in a single autonomous sequence without needing separate prompts.

Get instant free-to-play game recommendations and system specs directly inside Windsurf without leaving your workspace.

Find games matching exact tag combos in Windsurf

The `filter_games` tool allows the MCP Server to run queries across the entire FreeToGame database using specific tag combinations like shooter, pvp, and 3d. Your agent runs these queries to narrow down options based on your exact gaming preferences. Cascade processes the returned list to find matches that fit your platform and genre constraints. The agent parses the FreeToGame JSON payload to display the exact titles matching your criteria directly in the Windsurf chat.

Inspect PC system requirements automatically

The `get_game` tool pulls full details for any specific title, including minimum system requirements like graphics cards and storage space. Windsurf reads these specs to check if a game runs on your current development rig. Cascade chains this check right after finding a game, so you know if your hardware can handle the game before you download it. No more checking external gaming wikis or forums when Windsurf can extract the specs directly.

Sort massive game databases in one go

The `list_games` tool pulls the entire list of free-to-play titles sorted by release date, popularity, or alphabetical order. Windsurf uses this endpoint to build custom gaming directories or fetch raw data for your side projects. Your agent handles the sorting parameters directly, so you can quickly isolate browser-based MMOs or the newest tactical shooters. The raw JSON feeds straight into Cascade's context window.
