Epic Games Store Offers New Freebies

Epic Games Store is kicking off August with a bang, dishing out not one, but two enticing freebies for gamers. This week’s offerings? A charming woodland adventure and a culinary combat extravaganza. Let’s dig in!

LumbearJack: A Beary Good Time

First up is LumbearJack, a delightful puzzle platformer that’s sure to warm your heart. You’ll step into the paws of a determined bear, armed with an axe and a mission to save the forest from corporate greed.

This game follows in the footsteps of other environmentally-themed indie titles like Flower and Fe, blending important messages with engaging gameplay.

Key Features:

• Engaging environmental puzzles
• Charming, inviting art style
• Short but sweet gameplay experience

While LumbearJack might not be a lengthy epic, it packs a punch with its personality and relaxing gameplay. It’s the perfect palate cleanser between more intense gaming sessions, much like other short-form games such as Journey or What Remains of Edith Finch.

System Requirements:

• OS: Windows 7
• CPU: Intel Core i3-3240 or equivalent
• Memory: 4 GB RAM
• GPU: GeForce GT 640 (2048 VRAM) or equivalent

RAWMEN: Food Fighter Arena – A Souper Shooter

If you’re hungry for some multiplayer mayhem, RAWMEN: Food Fighter Arena is serving up just what you need.

This free-to-play title turns the kitchen into a battlefield, where food is your weapon and laughter is inevitable. It joins the ranks of quirky multiplayer games like Overcooked and Gang Beasts, offering a unique twist on competitive gameplay.

What’s Cooking:

• Chaotic multiplayer shooter gameplay
• Food-based weaponry (soup slingers, anyone?)
• Comedic art style and over-the-top action

As a bonus, new players can claim a free ladle and pot to kickstart their culinary combat career. 

System Requirements:

• OS: Windows 7 SP1+
• CPU: SSE2 instruction set support
• Memory: 8 GB RAM
• GPU: DX11 compatible (shader model 3.0)
