Epic Games Offers Happy Game for Free This Week

The Epic Games Store for mobile has unveiled its free release of the week, and it's none other than Amanita Design's Happy Game. Despite its cheerful title, Happy Game plunges players into a far-from-happy scenario, offering a free download that promises to be anything but joyous.

In Happy Game, you step into the shoes of a young boy who drifts into sleep only to awaken in a surreal, gory world brimming with chaos. Amanita Design, known for their quirky puzzlers like Chuchel, takes a darker turn with this title, transforming their signature style into a chilling nightmare experience.

Prepare to navigate through three distinct nightmares, solving a series of bizarre and unsettling puzzles. The game's deceptively sweet settings mask a host of disturbing visuals and sounds, ensuring an immersive and eerie journey. The unsettling atmosphere is further enhanced by the haunting soundtrack provided by the Czech band DVA, which is sure to send chills down your spine.
