As we dive into the weekend, it's the perfect time to highlight the latest free releases from the Epic Game Store, now available on mobile devices. These games are free to download and keep, accessible on both Android and iOS devices (especially in the EU). This week's spotlight falls on Bridge Constructor: The Walking Dead and Astarion's Champions of Renown Pack.
Bridge Constructor: The Walking Dead offers a unique blend of humor and challenge. In this game, you'll put your architectural skills to the test by building bridges to help survivors escape, while also strategically setting traps to thwart the pursuing zombies. It's a fresh twist on the classic bridge-building format, infused with the thrilling elements of the Walking Dead universe.
On the other hand, Astarion's Champions of Renown Pack is a significant addition for fans of Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms. This pack is loaded with rewards, including a Flumph familiar, unlocks for your favorite champions, an exclusive Tuxedo Kalix skin, and other goodies. Although it's not a standalone game, this pack provides a substantial boost to your gameplay experience.
A Bit of This, A Bit of That
While I was slightly disappointed to see that one of the free releases was a booster pack for Idle Champions, I recognize its value for dedicated players. Conversely, Bridge Constructor: The Walking Dead combines the fun of the franchise with the added challenge of navigating zombie-infested landscapes, making it a compelling choice.
It will be fascinating to observe how Epic Games' strategy of offering free mobile releases plays out. Will it succeed in attracting mobile gamers where it struggled on PC? Only time will tell.
