The Epic Games Store for mobile continues to delight gamers by offering free games on a weekly basis, unlike the monthly offerings on its PC counterpart. This week, as we wrap up April, you can grab two fantastic titles at no cost: Loop Hero and Chuchel. If you're a regular reader of Pocket Gamer, you'll already know that Loop Hero is a standout favorite. Our very own Jack praised it highly in his review, highlighting its engaging roguelike gameplay. If you have to choose just one from this duo, Loop Hero is the one to go for.
On the other hand, Chuchel might be a bit of a mystery to some. This quirky, animated adventure game follows the character Chuchel on a whimsical quest to reclaim his stolen cherry. Alongside his rival Kekel, Chuchel encounters a series of bizarre and amusing situations that you'll either navigate through or simply enjoy watching unfold.
When our App Army reviewed Chuchel at launch, they found it a bit perplexing yet undeniably entertaining. Even if it's not your typical game genre, the price—free—is unbeatable. Meanwhile, Loop Hero comes highly recommended for its challenging gameplay and stunning pixel art visuals.
The Epic Games Store on mobile not only mirrors the PC version's perks, such as these free game releases, but also provides access to exclusive titles like Fortnite, which are otherwise unavailable on mobile platforms.
