The Epic Games Store has recently launched on iOS and is now taking its free games program to the next level by making it a weekly event! Android and iOS users can already dive into the latest offerings: the much-anticipated sequel, Super Meat Boy Forever, and the eerie, atmospheric side-scroller, Eastern Exorcist. New releases will be available every Thursday, so keep your eyes peeled!
Super Meat Boy Forever needs little introduction to fans of indie gaming. This sequel reignites the flame for hardcore side-scrolling platformers. As Meat Boy, you'll embark on a challenging journey with Bandage Girl to rescue your child, Nugget, from the clutches of the nefarious Dr. Fetus. Be prepared for a tough ride, as this game is known for its high difficulty level.
On a different note, Eastern Exorcist offers a more serious tone. This side-scrolling action RPG immerses you in a world inspired by Japanese and Chinese folklore, filled with monsters, malevolent spirits, and sorcery. As the titular exorcist, your mission is to vanquish evil while traversing beautifully crafted landscapes.
