That’s a ton of great content. I haven’t touched Destiny 2 in more than a year now and fear that I’ll get sucked in again if I do.

Scratch the weekly game note… Just found this note on the Epic News Blog:

We want you to have the happiest of holidays for 2023, so we’ve put together the most festive sale. It has thousands of discounted games, limitless 33% Epic Coupons, an Epic Rewards boost to 10%, 17 free games, and free cosmetics for everyone.

“17 Free Games” means there’s another 16 to come beginning next Wednesday. Speculation is that there’ll be a free game each day through until 3 January and then the final one will be available for the last week.

Free game #3 is out, with another 24 hour claim timer on it…

Melvor Idle

Inspired by RuneScape, Melvor Idle takes the core of what makes an adventure game so addictive and strips it down to its purest form! This is a feature-rich, idle/incremental game combining a distinctly familiar feel with a fresh gameplay experience.

The wrapping paper this year is tough. More colours than obvious symbols.

There’s a computer mouse in the wrapping paper so maybe PC Builder Simulator?

More 24-hour free stuff from EGS, and it’s a good one today!

Art of Rally

art of rally is a stylized experience inspired by the golden era of rally from the creator of Absolute Drift. Race across the world through colorful and stylized environments in top-down view. Will you master the art of rally?

Yeah, the wallpapers are definitely designed to confuse this year. I thought @DarthMol’s mouse to PC Builder Sim was a solid suggestion. Personally, I thought the lightning bolt looked like some sort of mobile -ish game. The pattern on the paper for tomorrow’s game is of no use. It’s looking like the colours are the only clue.

I think the only commonality is the colouring, looking at the pattern from all the wrapping and cover art, the common theme seems to be the colour pallet.

Day 6 of the EGS Winter Sale Giveaway, and which I have in my Epic library already but for the life of me can’t remember when or how it got there. Was it a giveaway before? Was it possibly a past freebie from Prime Gaming? I doubt I would have bought it myself. Either way, if you don’t have it yet, it’s here for you for the next 24 hours.

Ghostwire: Tokyo

Tokyo is overrun by deadly supernatural forces, perpetrated by a dangerous occultist, causing Tokyo’s population to vanish in an instant. Ally with a powerful spectral entity on their quest for vengeance and master a powerful arsenal of abilities to unravel the dark truth behind the disappearance as you face the unknown in Ghostwire: Tokyo.

The wallpaper clue for the Christmas Day giveaway…

Any guesses? If tradition continues, it could be a newish AAA title.

That’s a pretty big giveaway. It seems that the colour of the wrapping is the clue.

Not sure about the next one… Satisfactory… Doubt that though.

Hmmm, some good guesses. A fair number of giveaways have been games on Game Pass. Art of Rally, Fallout 3 and Ghostwire Tokyo are either on or have been on Game Pass.

…and the winner is The Outer Worlds! Would never have guessed that from the wrapper.
