For those not yet familiar with the Epic Games Store for mobile, you'll be thrilled to learn that it mirrors its PC counterpart by offering free games to claim for a limited time. On mobile, the excitement doubles with weekly giveaways instead of monthly, and you get not one, but two free games each week!
As we wrap up April, the Epic Games Store for mobile is dishing out two fantastic titles absolutely free: Loop Hero and Chuchel. If you're a regular reader of Pocket Gamer, you might already be familiar with Loop Hero, which earned a stellar review from Jack. This engaging roguelike game is a must-play, offering a mix of challenging gameplay and lush pixel visuals that captivate from start to finish.
But what about Chuchel? This surreal animated adventure game follows the quirky character Chuchel on his quest to retrieve his stolen cherry. Alongside his rival Kekel, they find themselves in all sorts of hilarious and bizarre predicaments. Whether you're solving puzzles to progress or simply watching the amusing antics unfold, Chuchel promises a unique and fun experience.
When our App Army reviewed Chuchel upon its release, they found it a bit quirky and confusing but ultimately enjoyable. Even if it's not your usual genre, the price—free—is hard to beat. Meanwhile, Loop Hero comes highly recommended for anyone seeking a blend of strategic depth and visual delight.
The Epic Games Store for mobile brings many of the benefits found on PC, including these free releases and access to popular titles like Fortnite, which are otherwise unavailable on mobile platforms.
