Look into I2P.
It's a network similar to TOR, but more suited for usecases like torrenting.
For anything you do on I2P, you can rest assured noone else can even in theory trace it back to you.
Go visit http://tracker2.postman.i2p for a large collection of public domain content.

The only issue is that there is also a lot of content available in german and english language which is not in the public domain, and due to the anonymous nature of I2P noone would be able to warn you of that. So take care you don't accidentally seed the content to others, keeping it online for even more people to commit the same mistake with noone the wiser.

How does this help OP? They are asking precisely because they are downloading games that aren't in the public domain.
