If you're a gamer - or just check out the Cheapskate sites occasionally - you probably know that Epic Games is giving away at least one free game every Thursday. This week, Epic put two games on the queue: a first-person horror title called Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, and an adorable 16-bit retro strategy game called Kingdom: New Lands. If you get hold of both of them, that's $ 45 on free spins.
If you're new to Epic's weekly giveaway, here's how it works: If you don't already have one, sign up for your free Epic account. Then just get your free games to keep forever. You don't even have to install the games right away if you don't want to. You have until Thursday October 22nd to receive this week's freebies. At this point both will return to their regular price.
Kind of a sequel to the beloved Amnesia: The Dark Descent. This 2013 horror game is set in a different timeline with different characters. This is a survival horror game that will transport you to a world of terror around the turn of the century.
Kingdom: New Lands is a minimalist strategy game with a 16-bit retro aesthetic and an ambient soundtrack. You take control of a monarch who is fighting to build your kingdom by exploring the world, recruiting loyal subjects, and defending what you claim of nighttime attacks.
