Even the already-cheapVampire Survivorsmanages a 20% discount, reducing its price to £3.19.
Not that I’ve completed Guardians Of The Galaxy. Normally at this time of year, I lament how few games I’ve played for a substantial number of hours over the previous 12 months. No more! My New Year’s resolution, if I had one, isn’t to tackle my backlog or finally plow 60-hours into whatever blockbuster I meant to get round to. It’s to accept that games are things I dabble with. I will play a lot of games in 2023 and I will play most of them once and never again and that’s fine. No more “backlog”.
The Epic Games Store also have a winter sale underway, during which they’re giving away 15 days of free games. Today’s freebies area trio of classic Fallout games.
