    it's been a whole week, and that means its time for yet another free

    Don't judge a book (or a game) by its cover, except you
    can totally judge this game by its cover. It's a top-down
    shooter against hordes of enemies, uninspired graphics
    and --of course-- 'roguelite' mechanics. I'm not saying
    this is a bad game; I'm just saying it's exactly what it
    appears to be, and if you aren't enthralled with this
    sort of game, it doesn't have any hidden depths that will
    convince you otherwise. (On the other hand, if you like
    shooters like these, you'll probably have a blast). Either
    way, at least it's not a repeat.

    I think I am actually going to try this one very soon and see if it
    appeals to me.

    Thanks Spalls. I don't think I would have remembered to check Epic
    today.

    Boo again! Hah! Didn't expect a second scare so soon, right? Well,
    don't worry, that's it for this week. You've got the usual seven days
    to claim this freebie. After that, we get to repeat the whole process!
