Epic Games offers Loop Hero and Chuchel for free this week

The Epic Games Store for mobile continues to delight gamers by following in the footsteps of its PC counterpart, offering not just monthly, but weekly free games. This week, as we wrap up April, you can snag two fantastic titles at no cost: Loop Hero and Chuchel.

If you're a regular visitor to Pocket Gamer, you're probably already familiar with Loop Hero. It's a title that has captured our hearts here, with Jack's review singing its praises. This engaging roguelike game is a must-play, offering a compelling mix of challenging gameplay and lush pixel visuals. If you only try one game from this duo, make sure it's Loop Hero.

But what about Chuchel? This surreal animated adventure game follows the journey of Chuchel as he chases after his stolen cherry. Along with his rival Kekel, players will navigate through a series of hilarious and bizarre scenarios, either solving puzzles to progress or simply enjoying the unfolding chaos.

While Chuchel might have initially puzzled our App Army reviewers, it was ultimately appreciated for its unique and entertaining experience. And with the game being offered for free, there's no reason not to give it a try, even if it's not your usual genre. Meanwhile, Loop Hero comes highly recommended for its blend of strategic depth and beautiful art style.

The Epic Games Store on mobile not only provides these weekly free games but also brings other perks similar to its PC version, including access to popular titles like Fortnite, which are otherwise unavailable on mobile platforms.
