Epic Games Offers Happy Game for Free This Week

The Epic Games Store for mobile has unveiled its free game 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 a far cry from happiness, offering a thrilling experience for those who download and keep it at no cost.

Happy Game plunges you into a psychedelic nightmare where you control a young boy who falls asleep and awakens in a gory, chaotic world. Known for their quirky puzzles in games like Chuchel, Amanita Design takes a darker turn here, transforming their signature style into pure nightmare fuel.

In this eerie adventure, you'll navigate through three distinct nightmares, tackling bizarre and unsettling puzzles. The seemingly sweet environments mask grim sights and sounds, while the haunting soundtrack by the Czech band DVA adds to the game's unsettling atmosphere, ensuring sleepless nights.

I was genuinely taken aback to learn that Amanita Design, the team behind the family-friendly Chuchel, had created Happy Game. It's a stark departure from their usual fare, diving deep into horror.

If you're unsure whether Happy Game is your cup of tea, take a look at our 2023 review where Will awarded it a solid four stars, commending its atmosphere and horror elements.
