Alien Isolation and the Last Survivor DLC free on Epic games. To get the dlc it looks like you just re-get the game and then in your library it says 1 addon. Hand of fate 2 is free also.

Thanks, I was already owning Alien from previous giveaway, but didn't noticed the DLC is now avaliable - I'd miss this one if not you.

According to my Epic client there's a Mystery free game in 2 days. Not seen this approach before, I hope it's a goodie.

as an aside, I seem to have 76 games in my Epic library. Every one was a free offer and I've downloaded and played 5 of them; there are maybe 3 or 4 more I'd have a go at, the rest maybe when I'm bored. How is that a business model? Am I meant to feel obligated to buy DLCs or other games because of this?

The other thing I did recently is sign up to the Microsoft/Xbox game pass subscription for $1 for the first month to try a few games out. Then I bought Astroneer and Halo Master Chief Collection on Steam and cancelled the subscription. Am I meant to feel guilty? Perhaps I'm a sociopath.

And the mystery is...

NBA 2K21

Not my thing really. But there's another mystery in 7 days. Might not get so excited this time ;)

Um, hasn't Genshin Impact always been a free-to-play game?

Yeah I noticed that as well, it's not something to boast about, trying to make it out that they are given it away for free, when it was free already.

Shadowrun series of games free on Gog.com right now.
It's free for a few days.

This is a great series of games, if you like this sort of thing at all!

This is currently free on Epic store:
Bridge Constructor: The Walking Dead - My first reaction was literally big WTF, but looking at footage it might actually be interesting spin on bride buildier.

Also Ironcast is free as second game of this week.

That has been free for as long as I remember on GOG, if you not played it, its a great story / puzzle game. I have the second game, (that was kickstarted) but never really got into it)

Good times.
