Weekly Free Games on Epic Store: Super Meat Boy Forever and Eastern Exorcist Now Available

The Epic Games Store has recently launched on iOS and is now enhancing its appeal by making its free games program weekly. You can start downloading the latest free releases, including the much-loved Super Meat Boy Forever and the atmospheric side-scroller Eastern Exorcist, on both Android and iOS devices. Every Thursday, you can look forward to more exciting releases.

Super Meat Boy Forever needs little introduction for fans of the genre. This indie hit has reignited interest in hardcore side-scrolling platformers. In the game, you take control of Meat Boy, who, alongside his partner Bandage Girl, embarks on a perilous journey to rescue their child, Nugget, from the clutches of the evil Dr. Fetus. Be prepared for a challenging experience with plenty of retries along the way.

On the other hand, Eastern Exorcist offers a more serious tone. This side-scrolling action RPG transports you to a visually stunning world inspired by Japanese and Chinese folklore, filled with monsters, evil spirits, and sorcery. As the titular exorcist, your mission is to vanquish evil and explore breathtaking landscapes.

Epic Games' decision to make their free games program weekly highlights their unique approach to capturing the mobile market's attention, where new releases come and go rapidly. While the long-term impact of this strategy on the storefront's popularity remains to be seen, the immediate benefit of free, high-quality games like Super Meat Boy Forever and Eastern Exorcist is undeniable.
