Dandy PC Game Deals Are Go With Steam’s Lunar New Year Sale, And Yes Free Half Life
In case you missed it, Steam is currently hosting its Lunar New Year Sale with some nifty discounts on a whole lot of games. The sale is in celebration of the Chinese New Year, this being the year of the rat, and it runs through Monday, January 27, 2020 at 10:00am PST (1:00pm EST). So, you have the entire weekend to stock up on games.
As part of the tie-in with the Lunar New Year, Steam is gifting red envelopes containing tokens.

If a user accumulates 5,000 tokens, they can redeem it for a $5 off coupon on their next purchase.
"In celebration of the New Year, follow the origin story of the Zodiac as you open a new gift from the Emperor each day of the sale. Daily red envelopes feature Year of the Rat Tokens, good toward seasonal items available exclusively in The Lunar New Year Night Market.

Play The Half-Life Series Free Until Half-Life: Alyx Launches
"Half-Life: Alyx is set before the events of Half-Life 2 and the episodes, but the games share characters and story elements. The Half-Life: Alyx team believes that the best way to enjoy the new game is to play through the old ones, especially Half-Life 2 and the episodes, so we want to make that as easy as possible.
From now until Half-Life: Alyx launches, visit the game page of each Half-Life game to install it and play as much as you want, right up until the day Half-Life: Alyx is released!," Valve explains.
