My "assistant" is right and Cities: Skylines is the next free game at Epic.

[Thomkal]

This week's free game is In Sound Mind, a first person horror game where I'm sure no one is of sound mind

[Thomkal]

Two free games this week:

I gave it a try and it's seriously one of the deepest simulation games I've come across, to the point where it was kind of overwhelming at first but when you get the hang of it, it's super fun!

I know very little about soccer, so I tried one of the earlier versions, but with no tutorial then, I just had no clue what to do. It's also a free to play weekend on Steam too

I agree! My last version was 20, but I'm going to pickup 22 soon. It really is completely different than any other career sim. It feels like you're actually managing a group of human beings , rather than a collection of statistics.

I can't really get behind playing one of those games for only a weekend

[BigDPW]

FM22 is available on Xbox Game Pass for PC if you have been considering that for other games already.

And the good one that most of us already have is: Xcom 2


And the maybe good one that most of us don't likely have: Insurmontable-where you are a mountaineer trying to get up and down a mountain

I just want to know where Epic was when I was a broke kid/teenager who couldn't afford the games I wanted. I envy today's gaming youth.

Now as an adult time is more of a factor for playing games then money.

Hard to believe the leaps and bounds computer/gaming technology has taken-from next to nothing when I was growing up to what we have today

[Thomkal]

Two free games at Epic this week


1) Amnesia:Rebirth a new descent into terror in the Amnesia world


2) Riverbond-A co-op adventure game for 1-4 players in a Minecraft-like Voxel world where you try to smash everything

[Thomkal]

Two more free games this week:



1) Just Die Already-a crazy adventure sandbox game where angry old people are kicked out of their retirement home and are looking to create mayhem on the streets


2)Paradigm-also a crazy adventure game set in a post apocalyptic eastern European country of Krusz. You play as a mutant with weird growths on your head and you have a genetically altered sloth that vomits candy.

[Thomkal]

One free game this week:


Terraforming Mars-the digital adaptation of the highly rated board game. I keep meaning to give this one another try, but its always come across as "too mathy" for me.

[NobodyHere]

We need to have a FOFC game night with this

[Thomkal]

A Big week for free games with 4 this week at Epic, 3 already announced, one at around 6 pm today:


1) Jotun-Valhalla Edition


2) Prey-which has already been a free game here


3) Redout: Enhanced Edition-a racing game

[NobodyHere]

Are you sure that we're getting another game today? The countdown on the store is pointing to next week.

Ah I think you are correct, I was rushing around to get this posted before I went out and didn't look closely so thanks!

[NobodyHere]

But the fact that they aren't announcing the title yet makes me hope that it will be something good.

[Thomkal]

And the mystery free game is...


Borderlands 3! And another mystery game for next week.


Also Disco Elysium is 65% off, or $14


Edit: And when I claimed that game I got a 25% off coupon that will be applied to any game $14.99 or higher during the sale thru June 16

I'm afraid to buy any game when there's a mystery game waiting to be revealed. I don't want to buy a game only to find out I could've gotten it for free.

Yeah me too

[Thomkal]

Ah forgot to mention above but I see Fall Guys is becoming a free to play game at Epic in June

[Thomkal]

And the Mystery Guest today is: Bioshock: The Collection, which contains remastered editions of Bioshock 1 and 2, and the complete Edition of Bioshock Infinite. Don't think I've ever played these before. There is another Mystery game next week

Pretty sweet picks! I definitely recommend you play them. The original one is still a masterpiece to this day, just look at the review scores.
https://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/bioshock

I've yet to play Infinite, so I look forward to doing that now!

[Thomkal]

Yet another free game that I have not played:Wolfenstein:The New Order is now available at Epic. Another mystery game next week

[Thomkal]

Epic's gift to you this week is:Maneater_a RPG where you play as a shark-this one seems a step down from the other free ones offered-unless of course you are a fan of Shark Week. This ends Epic's mystery game, so back to your normal next week

[Thomkal]

The free game this week is Supraland which calls itself a mix between Portal, Metroid, and Zelda

[Thomkal]

Fall Guys is now free to play at Epic starting today

[Thomkal]

Two free games this week besides Fall Guys:


1: Game of Thrones: Digital Version


2: Car Mechanic 2018

[SirFozzie]

Steam Summer Sale begins at 1 PM EDT

[CrimsonFox]

hooray! Time for badge creation!

[Thomkal]

Not one,not two, but 3 free games this week:


1)Geneforge 1:Miutation-an old school RPG where you have your own custom made mutant monsters to help you.


2)Hood: Outlaws and Legends-a PvPvE co-op game where you try to get the biggest heists


3) Iratus: Lord of the Dead-I have this one-its a turn based Roguelike strategy game with Darkest Dungeon like combat. You lead an angry necromancer and his army of undead in a quest to return to the surface world.

[Thomkal]

Two free games this week, one your probably familiar with and one your not:


1: Killing Floor 2-the second installment of the shooter


2: Ancient Enemy-this one has been on my wishlist for quite some time-its a RPG Card Battler where the enemy has already won and you fight alone. The combat system is kind of unique solitaire based system

[Thomkal]

Two more free games this week, though one they have offered before:


1)Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms-game is already free but this an Epic exclusive pack which includes several Champions, a lot of Chests, some Potions, a Skin and a Familiar


2) Wonder Boy: The Dragons Trap-an action adventure, platformer game with hand drawn animations. You've been cursed by the evil dragon and turned into half human and lizard, and you must find the cure

[Thomkal]

A bit of a snoozer this week unless you are a fan of the already free game Shop Titans, or a fan of WWI games:


1) Shop Titans-get to level 8 this week and get a large gift giveaway


2) Tannenberg:Eastern Front-a single or multiplayer WWI Combat experience

[Thomkal]

Bad timing on Epic's part this week-the last thing I want to play in this heat is a game about lawn mowers-yes its Lawn Mowing Simulator. I think this is the rare game I don't even bother "buying" from them

[Thomkal]

A fun co-op game is the free game this week-it's:


Unrailed- Build a endless train track among randomly generated maps. You and your friends have to cooperate and communicate so your train doesn't get derailed. Get across the map and upgrade and add to your train.

[Thomkal]

Cook, Serve, Delicious 3 is the free game this week

[Thomkal]

So unless they've added another free game I haven't seen yet, this week is a downer. Rumbleverse, Boom Boxer Pack for the already free Rumbleverse game is the only free "game" this week
