Disco Elysium is today's Epic free mystery game.
Disco Elysium is a very strange and well regarded narratively driven rpg with a focus on dialogue and skill checks rather than combat. Part of the structure of the game has you level up and develop different personality types depending on the choices you make. The main character does not remember who he is, and the things you can choose for him to decide to believe about himself can get pretty crazy.
Trine I, II, III and IV in the Trine Classic Collection is free on Epic Games today. I've only played the first one, but I remember it being a pretty and good platformer. Potential multiplayer too, if I remember correctly.
The last two Epic free mystery games are Total War: Three Kingdoms and Wildgate, a pvevp sci fi game. They will now be returning to a weekly schedule with Bloons TD6 being next week's game.
I played the first two. The first one was a classic case of a good game idea with a somewhat shakey execution, with the second game perfecting it in every way.Quote:

It looks like another Epic Store Sale is starting, which means they are finally giving away free games worth sharing again.
This week, May 14-20, the free games are:
The Telltale Batman Series: Shadows Edition
Sunderfolk
Next week's two games are mystery games.
Telltale is a company that makes (or used to make) narrative adventure games. They are very light on gameplay and are mostly telling a story that you shape by making choices as you go. Their Batman games were among the best of the ones they made. Apparently the "Shadows Edition" changes the art style to have a black and white aesthetic.
Sunderfolk is a multiplayer tactical rpg. The thing that stands out the most about this game is the fact that only the host needs to own the game. Other players can join and play on their phones. This gives versatility with the people you play with. I think it's supposed to be good, but don't know much else about it.
I've played a bit of Sunderfolk. It's a neat little game actually, almost like Into the Breach if you've played that.
It worked great with 2 people playing together on a couch and one player streaming to Discord where the third player watched and played through their phone.
