I will go to bat for Nuclear Throne, especially while the PC version is free on the Epic Games Store. Look, I get it. There's a near-endless supply of indie roguelike shooters in this world. So many of them blur together, and so very few a...

Another Thursday, another PC game giveaway at the Epic Games Store. Let's get right to it. SOMA is an underwater sci-fi horror adventure about what it truly means to be human. Costume Quest is an adorable Double Fine role-playing game abo...

Did you buy a neat little Halloween dish, fill it with candy, systematically demolish the sweets in the days leading up to October 31, then rush out for more treats before the neighborhood kids show up? It's okay. I forgive you. You meant w...

Introductions are so overdone, so let's just cut to the chase and discuss the games you can use your hard-earned money to buy for cheaper than normal in this week's Postmodern Humble Bundle. In the pay-what-you-want-so-long-as-it's-over-a-d...

It's not too late to get into Battlefield V, even if you're only looking to dip your toes in for the long-awaited War in the Pacific update. DICE is hosting free weekend events for the game throughout the month of October, and honestly, tha...

PlayStation VR turns three years old on October 13, and it's impressive how much mileage Sony has gotten – and continues to get! – out of the little peripheral. As much as the technology itself is really showing its age in 2019,...

I'm not exactly in the habit of highlighting Humble Monthly, but every so often a deal catches my eye, and I'll definitely make an exception for a Crash and Spyro twofer. Right now, you can get Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy and Spyro Reig...

Sony's Totally Digital sale has returned to the PlayStation Store with deals on PS4, PS3, and Vita games running a whole two weeks. There's far too much filler for me to want to list everything, but I've assembled a batch of games that stoo...

It doesn't get much better than Celeste and Inside, and this week, you don't have to pick between these two cherished titles. They're both free on PC through the Epic Games Store until September 5. Celeste isn't just a pixel-perfect platfor...

It's all just a matter of perspective. That's the lesson learned in 2013's Fez, a whimsical puzzle platformer that's centered around a screen rotation mechanic. It's also the current subject of Epic Games Stores most outstanding tendency: G...

For the better part of the past year, Epic Games has been giving away free games on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. It's usually stuff you'd want, too! A glut of truly quality indie titles has been the backbone for the start of many people's E...

This week's Epic Games Store freebie is Limbo, a game many of us have played by now on one platform or another. If you want to see what Playdead was up to before the sublime Inside, here's your chance. The gloomy side-scrolling adventure s...
