Epic is now giving away, among others, A Plague Tale: Innocence, a highly acclaimed adventure game themed around a rat infestation in the Middle Ages.
New week, new free games: Epic is again giving away two games in one go. This week, the successful medieval adventure A Plague Tale: Innocence and the curious indie game Minit on the agenda
How long is the offer valid? A Plague Tale: Innocence and Minit will be available for free from 5-12 August 2021 at 5:00pm each day. If you secure the games during this period, you get to keep them permanently.
But free time is valuable: That’s why, as usual, we’ll tell you what the two games are all about and who should take a closer look.
A Plague Tale: Innocence
What kind of game is A Plague Tale: Innocence? In medieval France, the plague is rampant and rats are swarming through the dark alleys in droves. As 14-year-old Amicia, we sneak through this dangerous game world while the Inquisition chases after us and our little brother Hugo. By cleverly using our slingshot, we can switch off light sources, whereupon the rats attack guards. Thus, with cunning and skill, we make our way through an emotionally told story.
Suitable for whom? Anyone who is interested in games that have an interesting story to tell should not miss A Plague Tale. The game also scores points with a detailed and chicly lit game world, which should also please aesthetes. On Steam, the game achieves a strong 93 percent positive rating among users.
Minit
What kind of game is Minit? In the minimalist adventure game, the name says it all, because one run takes only one minute. In this time, we discover the black and white game world as a cute character, climb behind many secrets, fight against dangerous monsters and help curious creatures. And we die … very often! Of course, each time we are a little smarter, which gradually unfolds the story of Minit.
Suitable for whom? Minit is definitely not for graphics fetishists, but all the more so for players interested in unusual gameplay. And if you’re looking for a break filler that’s easy to divide up because it’s served in bites, you can’t go far wrong with Minit. On Steam, Minit enjoys 91 percent positive ratings from players.
