    Hello Legion Gamers!

    Epic Games Store offers games for free every week. This week, the free games are...

    Ghostrunner 2


    Blood will run in Ghostrunner 2, a hardcore FPP slasher set in a post-apocalyptic cyberpunk future. Become the ultimate cyber ninja and prepare for epic boss fights, improved skills, an interactive story, new game modes, and captivating synthwave soundtrack.


    I am not really a fan of FPP slashers, but as far as they go, this seems to be a good example and a known enough game. It would also be a nice option for cyberpunk fans, especially those who liked the first part.

    But this is not all! Another free game this time is...

    Monument Valley 2


    Discover illusionary pathways and delightful puzzles as you learn the secrets of The Sacred Geometry. Follow the heart warming story of Ro in her journey through motherhood. Rediscover independence through manipulating monuments and evolving paths to explore new worlds.


    This one is part 2 of the game that was on free offer last week, so if you got that one and liked it, then here's more. A game for puzzle fans with a geometry twist. @Telomina you may like the style of this one, maybe 😊

    And that's not all again! Three games are on offer this week, unusually generous 😉 Another free game this time is...

    The Battle of Polytopia


    This is an award winning strategy game about controlling the map, fighting enemy tribes, discovering new lands and mastering new technologies. You take on the role as the ruler of a tribe and attempt to build a civilization in a turn based competition with the other tribes.


    This is more of a turn-based strategy of map control, maybe a nod to the Political Sim Fest on Steam, though I am not sure if there is a politics element here: like in Heroes, it seems to be more of a competition than politics. Good for those who like that, but the catch is that the game may probably be most enjoyable with friends, it is intended as a co-op game. If you have friends interested in this genre, then this may be a good one to grab. @DracoTarot maybe your friends would be up for it? 😉

    Overall, I'd say this week is a good one: 3 games is more than usual, and they have a decent range of genres, so hopefully there will be something for everyone. @SKYTRiXSHA, @ZaidH, @uptjackmalo, @tntiseverywere, @ChristianRasmussen, @AgariciRo, @RatlleRo, @miskkie and @Cysero here is your tag! 😊

    See anything you like?

    Wait, did the december EGS giveaway start early, cuz my goodness these are some amazing games! The first Monument Valley is legendary. I wouldn’t be surprised if highly acclaimed titles like The Witness and The Talos Principle were inspired by this masterpiece. The perspective novelty might not be as striking in MV2, but it should still be a jolly good time. Ghostrunner 2 looks great as well!

    Perfect as always! :D

    First time they give away three games at the same time, atleast for me.

    @Cysero you're welcome! Ghostrunner 2 is a bit too fast-paced for me, I get exhausted easily with games that are so dexterity-demanding. But that's me, the game seems to be very good and it got acclaim. If you enjoyed it when you tried it at your friends, all the better. Maybe there even is an option to compete against each other, speedruns or somesuch.

    @uptjackmalo I think they did it once before, but it is a rare occasion indeed.

    @ZaidH Heh, in December they giveaway one game at a time, but every day 😉 This seems to be an instance of unusual generosity on their part.

    Did you manage to grab the first Monument Valley last week, or did you play it before?

    Ghostrunner 2 is very acclaimed. Too fast-paced for me, but the game is very good and worth a go, especially if it costs nothing to give it a try 😊

    @DoctorEldritch Very generous indeed. I still remember when they gave away GTA 5 for free 😁 Good times.

    Yeah, I played Monument Valley on mobile about a decade ago or so. This, Plague Inc, Doodle Jump, and Angry Birds are probably the only mobile games I was fully invested in. I remember reading that you don’t enjoy playing games on touchscreen (or small screens?), but were there any mobile games you did enjoy back then?

    Ghostrunner 2 looks great, but the movement feels a little floaty to me, like the character isn’t really touching the ground. If they could fully embrace Titanfall 2 style movement, then Ghostrunner 3 might end up being a peak gaming experience 😄

    Polytopia look interesting. Hopefully not too simplified and/or short.
