It’s official, it’s that time of the week when I wish you the happiest and laziest Friday, and I tell you all about Epic Games Store giving away free games to help make your weekend much more enjoyable.
For those of you who don’t already know, every Thursday or sometimes Friday, Epic Games makes a new game, or sometimes when you’re fortunate, two games available for gamers to download and add to their libraries for free.
All gamers need to do to grab this gift from the gods for themselves is log into their Epic account, redeem the game or games on offer and add it to their library. Whatever you’ve redeemed is then yours to keep, to play or to add to an ever-growing list of games you mean to play but probably never will.
This week, Epic is offering The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk for players to redeem for free from today until the 6th of July.
The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk is a tactical RPG packed with humour, craziness and charm – as any good game should be. Players will control characters who aren’t the heroes of old. Instead, these characters are just as inexperienced as the one controlling them and clumsy to boot.
Players must try and guide these unlikely heroes through adventure and success. The Naheulbeuk universe is an original creation by French author John Lang. It started as an audio comedy series parodying role-playing games and heroic fantasy tropes before becoming its own game.
Players can take on the role of seven classic role-playing game characters, rangers, elves, dwarves, barbarians, magicians and even ogres and thieves.
If The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk sounds like something you want to dive into, remember to head over to the Epic Games Store and add the game to your library before the 6th of July, when the next free game goes live.
