Free game of the day

I believe I still have the Amiga big box (and the game installed in the emulator). Not for sale, though.


The save game here is one move before victory on King difficulty. I think I never beat anything higher. Controls of Civ I are kind of clunky, though.

“Pilgrims” by Aminata Design (Machinarium, Samorost,… ) is for free this week on Epic Games website.

Not sure if its a good game, but it’s probably quirky as it is by Aminata and it’s free anyway…

The surprisingly addictive “Hidden Folks”, an interactive point and click spin on “where’s waldo/wally?” in black and white is available for free on Epic for a week.

It’s a game I finished on mobile (which is a lot harder I guess)

Depends on the screen size of your device. :wink:

About the size of my thumb and index finger :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

You shouldn’t buy stuff on AliExpress.

This week free on Epic games: the brilliant (and slightly frustrating) Machinarium!

Next week: the slightly less brilliant Monument Valley

Chances are you already own both games (and completed them), but if not - don’t miss out!

I actually don’t even know what that is. I’ll have to check it out.

I played Monument Valley 2 back during the Covid quarantine. Definitely recommend. It has a very serene sensibility.

Well, that one is for free next week

I found its “story” a bit too open for interpretation
Or my interpretation of it was too unsettling - that is possible too.

A special giveaway offer organised by yours truly: I have an extra GOG code for the D&D Ravenloft series, which I already own there.

So if you are into D&D and old school (mid 90s DOS) CRPG games: send me a PM where you answer these three simple questions:

  • what is your favourite character class and why?
  • auto-map or pen and graph paper?
  • why do you deserve this code?

I’ll pick the winner from the answers showing the highest motivation to actually play the games. The raffle is open until end of September, so that everyone interested has a chance to react.

Sounds like the story of my life… :laughing:

Great questions, but I already know I’d never play the game(s), so you will not get my answers. But good luck to the contestants :slight_smile:!

Triple treat this week, with the Epic Store giving away Monument Valley 2, The Battle of Polytopia (turn-based strategy) and Ghostrunner 2 (cyberpunk first-person slasher).

I am also throwing a GOG key for “Tower of Time” into the mix. I already got this for free way back in 2019 (and never looked at).

Samorost 2 is free on Epic games this week

(Here’s hoping they’ll give away Samorost 3 too in the next weeks)

Why not buying the game(s) and support Amanita Design? :slight_smile: IMHO They deserve the money. And fame.

Absolutely. Though I would assume that they do get some compensation from Epic. At least they get extra publicity, and perhaps people will buy some of their other games, instead of hoping they’ll be available for free next :slight_smile:.

Anyway, I am also often conflicted when games are discounted. If a game is not 100% my thing, but looks interesting enough to try at least, I might not want to spend 20€ or even just 15€. But then when it’s 75% off, I feel it wouldn’t be fair to pay only 5€ or 3€. In the end, my wishlist grows and devs get nothing.
