The Epic Games Store has just expanded its reach to iOS, and now it's ramping up its free games program to a weekly basis! You can now download the latest offerings, Super Meat Boy Forever Mobile and Eastern Exorcist, on both Android and iOS devices. These games are available for free and ready to install right away.
Super Meat Boy Forever, a sequel that rekindled the flame for hardcore side-scrolling platformers, introduces you to the adventures of Meat Boy and Bandage Girl. Their mission? To rescue their kidnapped child, Nugget, from the clutches of the villainous Dr. Fetus. Be warned, the game's challenging nature means you'll face numerous restarts, but that's part of the thrill!
On a more somber note, Eastern Exorcist plunges you into a world inspired by Japanese and Chinese folklore, filled with monsters, evil spirits, and dark magic. As the protagonist, your role is to vanquish these evils while exploring breathtaking landscapes. This side-scrolling action RPG promises a deep and engaging experience.
Epic Games' decision to offer weekly free games on mobile is a bold move, reflecting the fast-paced nature of the mobile gaming market. It's a strategy aimed at capturing the attention of gamers who quickly move on to new titles. While it's yet to be seen how this will impact the popularity of the Epic Games Store on mobile in the long run, one thing is for sure: free games are always a hit. With titles like Super Meat Boy Forever, which pays homage to its beloved predecessor, and the visually captivating Eastern Exorcist, there's plenty to enjoy without spending a dime.
