- Epic Games Store's free game this week is the intriguing puzzle-platformer Figment - Embark on a mind-bending adventure through human consciousness - solve puzzles and battle nightmares - After disappearing from mobile markets, this imaginative title makes its return
Epic Games' mobile store initiative has brought fresh excitement to gamers, particularly through their free games program. While the PC version didn't make huge waves, their mobile offerings have been impressive - and this week's free game Figment continues that trend.
Picture Alice in Wonderland meets psychotherapy: Figment takes you on a surreal expedition through the human psyche. You'll solve uniquely creative puzzles while engaging in satisfying hack-and-slash combat against the mental demons plaguing consciousness.
This isn't just another free game though. Veteran readers might recall our previous coverage when Figment first launched on iOS and Android. After vanishing from both platforms, its EGS reappearance marks the first mobile availability in years!
Where imagination becomes reality
Figment practically sells itself with its unmistakable visual style and engaging gameplay hybrid. That it's completely free (like all EGS offerings) makes trying it a no-brainer for any mobile gamer.
What's particularly fascinating is seeing Figment make this comeback. Could this signal Epic's strategy to revive forgotten gems that disappeared from traditional app stores? The answer remains to be seen.
