 It's Thursday again and we all know what that means. Epic gives away
another free game, and I make another post to Usenet about Epic giving
away a free game. I wonder how many of these posts I've made over the
years? If I had a nickel for each one, could I afford any of these
games on Epic when they /aren't/ free? These are the important
questions that keep me awake at night.

     Mystralia... it's like Australia, but with more believable
     monsters. Seriously Australia; robber crabs, huntsman
     spiders, meter-long earthworms, Anthony Albanese... what
     the hell is going on there? Anyway, the game itself (which
     you may already have, since it was a freebie back in
     December 2021) is your typical Indie fantasy action/adventure
     game. It's somewhat akin to Zelda if perhaps a bit more
     focused on puzzling. Quality is what you'd expect from an
     Indie game; not great, but not unplayable. It's fine.
  Well, add another nickel to the pot. It'll be a long week before I
earn the next one, but we've all gotta make a living somehow! ;-)
 

I completely forgot I had this.
So at least it was a surprise...
