Oh, hello there. I didn't see you come in. I was just perusing the
Epic Game Store. It's Thursday, you see, and - you may not be aware of
this - every Thursday there are free games being offered to anyone
lucky enough to stumble upon them. Don't believe me? Take a look!

* The Big Con
https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/the-big-con
A weird comic-strip style adventure game about
drifting across America as a teenager, running
cons to try to raise enough money for the family
store. It's rife with 'nostalgia' for the 90s and
is a 'coming of age' story with otherwise fairly
standard adventure-game mechanics. Not sure it's
my cuppa, to be honest.

* Town of Salem II
https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/town-of-salem-2-ab6497
One of many Indie games - ranging from 'Among Us' to
"The Ship" - where the goal is to identify the one
player who is the nefarious villain while avoiding
being accused (or worse) yourself. This one has a
cutesy aesthetic set in the era of America's Salem
Witch Trials. Online only, of course. Definitely
not my cup of tea!

Not my cuppa tea either, social deduction games really stress me out.
Amongus and ss13 really stressed me a bunch

Oh, you're back! Did you find those games I mentioned? I told you they
were there. Oh, what's that? Well, no, I never said they were GOOD
games; I just said they were free. But suit yourself; you have seven
days to claim them if you change your mind. Well, I gotta go; I guess
I will see you around. Don't be a stranger, neighbor!

Are we making a story in these descriptions? Very cool :D

I looked at the screenshots. Now my eyes are bleeding.

Hard PASS. ;^P

This one looks mildly interesting. My first thought it, ugh, I don't
want to play a con-artist. My second thought was I rather enjoyed some
of the GTAs, so maybe I'm o.k. playing one.

Pure trash. I picked it up because I was on epic anyway. For the number.
