Epic offers free simulator and action-adventure worth $85
Epic's mystery gift typically features just one free game, but this week, players can grab two. The offer is available from December 5 at 5 PM until December 12 at 5 PM (CET).
Bus Simulator 21 Next Stop
Ever dreamed of becoming a bus driver? Bus Simulator 21 Next Stop offers the chance to take the wheel and navigate bustling traffic. While not the latest edition, it includes both classic diesel buses and modern electric models. Players must follow traffic laws carefully, points are deducted for running stop signs or failing to use turn signals. The game features 30 routes across two expansive maps: Angel Shores and Seaside Valley. Beyond driving, you can also manage your own bus company by planning routes, hiring staff and maintaining your fleet.
Player feedback suggests that the AI behavior can be unrealistic and unpredictable at times. Combined with some bugs, this has resulted in Bus Simulator 21 receiving "mostly positive" reviews on Steam, with 73 percent positive ratings from approximately 3,300 users. The reception on Metacritic is similar: the game holds a Metascore of 73 from critics, while players have given it an average user score of 6.0. The simulator is typically priced at $35 on Steam.
LEGO® Star Wars™: The Skywalker Saga
Players can relive the entire Skywalker saga, from "The Phantom Menace" to "The Rise of Skywalker", in classic LEGO fashion. With over 300 playable characters, countless iconic locations and an array of spaceships, the game offers plenty to explore. The combat system blends lightsaber duels, Force powers and blaster shootouts, all infused with LEGO's signature humor that puts a playful twist on the legendary stories. A local co-op mode also allows friends to join the adventure for shared fun.
LEGO® Star Wars™: The Skywalker Saga is regularly priced at around $50 and boasts an impressive 91 percent positive rating from approximately 35,000 reviews on Steam. The reception on Metacritic is similarly strong, with a Metascore of 82 and a User Score of 7.8. For fans of LEGO and Star Wars, it's a safe and worthwhile choice.
