Carcassonne and Ticket to Ride are free right now from Epic

Asmodee is handing out the digital adaptations

The Epic Games Store has a pair of popular board games up for grabs until February 13, 2020.

If you've always been curious to try Carcassonne or Ticket to Ride (or you like the games enough to want to play them digitally), you can grab both titles for free on PC courtesy of Asmodee Digital and Epic. These are the full versions, but naturally, there are a bunch of add-ons vying for your attention.

Originally, this free-game duo was intended to be a trio, but Pandemic – a co-op game about stopping deadly outbreaks – was removed from this week's lineup, presumably due to real-world headlines.

Next week, from February 13 to February 20, the Epic Games Store plans to give out Kingdom Come Deliverance, which should be a good get for many open-world RPG fans, and Aztez, an in-depth beat-'em-up title with a surprising 4X-style big-picture strategy layer built on top. Cool picks all around.

Disclosure-bot: Just in case the editor neglected to mention it, we have zero control when deals start and end. Deals can sometimes be gone within minutes (please don't shoot the messenger). Trying deal links even hours after this article's time stamp may lead to self-punching, so maybe bookmark our video game deals if you're on the hunt. Also, it goes without saying, but some shopping links do directly support the author. If you've spotted any inaccuracy please let us know asap.
