Epic Games Store: Free game for April and upcoming title

The Epic Games Store has recently revealed its latest free game, available from April 16 to April 23, 2023. The current free game in this period is The Stone of Madness , a tactical stealth game set in a Spanish monastery turned madhouse.

About The Stone of Madness

In The Stone of Madness , players take control of five prisoners who must work together to escape. Each character has their own skills, traumas, and fears, all of which directly affect gameplay and mental stability. Players must survive amid patrolling enemies and other threats while combining different escape plans. The game features dynamic time mechanics, multiple escape routes, and a strong focus on stealth and cooperation.

Upcoming game: Doomblade

After the free offer of The Stone of Madness , the Epic Games Store will bring a new free title on April 23: Doomblade . Developed by Muro Studios and published by Iceberg Interactive, this game is a 2D action Metroidvania in which the protagonist, Gloom Girl, discovers a living, imprisoned weapon called Doomblade. Players explore interconnected areas, battle corrupted creations, and restore the sword’s ultimate power to defeat the Dread Lords. The gameplay focuses on fast, precise movement and a weapon-transportation system during combat.
