PC Gamers Can Get a Samurai Rroguelike Completely Free of Charge for a Limited Time

Epic Games Store is offering two free PC games this week to players at no charge for a limited time. The primary title is Shogun Showdown, a stylish pixel-art roguelike that blends multiple genres with turn-based combat and deck-building mechanics. Set in feudal Japan, players battle through roguelike runs to defeat the Shogun, building out their character’s abilities through strategic deck construction.

Released two years ago, Shogun Showdown has earned strong player reception with over 3,500 “Overwhelmingly Positive” reviews on Steam, demonstrating significant community appreciation for its genre-blending approach and engaging gameplay loop.

The second free title this week is Mindcop, a hand-drawn whodunnit detective game that takes a distinctive approach to mystery gameplay. The game tasks players with investigating a murder in a small town setting, featuring a unique mechanic that allows players to dive into the mind of a murder suspect. This innovative twist on traditional detective gameplay offers a fresh take on the mystery genre.

This limited-time promotion is part of Epic Games Store’s ongoing strategy to attract and retain players by offering high-quality games at no cost.
