Epic Games Offers Happy Game for Free This Week

The Epic Games Store for mobile has just announced its free release of the week, and this time it's the chilling "Happy Game" from developer Amanita Design. Don't let the name fool you; this game is far from a joyful experience, but it's yours to download and keep at no cost.

In "Happy Game," you step into the shoes of a young boy who drifts into sleep only to find himself in a nightmarish, gory world. Amanita Design, known for their quirky puzzlers like Chuchel, takes a dark turn with this title, transforming it into a source of pure nightmare fuel. You'll navigate through three distinct nightmares, tackling a series of bizarre and unsettling puzzles. The seemingly sweet environments mask deeply disturbing sights and sounds, and the eerie soundtrack by the Czech band DVA will haunt your nights.

I was genuinely taken aback to learn that Amanita Design, a studio I primarily associated with the family-friendly Chuchel, created "Happy Game." If you're unsure whether this game is for you, I recommend checking out our 2023 review where Will awarded it a solid four stars, commending its immersive atmosphere and horror elements.
