The fiends of Epic are back to tempt us once again with more free games. Stay strong, fellow gamers. Though you might take their free toys, do not let them lead you into the ways of evil and Fortnite. That way lies madness and sorrow.
* FIST: Forged in Shadow Torch Wow, that sure is one forced acronym of a name, isn't it?. The game itself belies its awful title, however. It's a fun little metroidvania-style adventure/platformer. I can't say I'm particularly endeared by its furry protagonists -anthropomorphic animals were never my thing- but he has a lot of neat tools and gadgets that makes the gameplay look quite interesting. It's nice to see a game with old-school gameplay that doesn't rely on retro-graphics too. I wouldn't mind if the camera had been pulled back a bit though; everything looks just a bit too cramped for my liking. And the story is a bit lackluster overall. Still, a fine freebie and a good addition to any video game library.
(note: this is a repeat freebie. Epic gave it away way back in December 2022, so you may already have the game. But grab it now if you missed it the first time).
Do I have to tell you how long you have to claim this game? Probably not (pssst, it's seven days). Grab it, or not. I get paid the same either way.
