Epic Games Unveils Happy Game as Free Weekly Release

The Epic Games Store for mobile has just unveiled its latest 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 is far from a joyous experience, but it's a must-download for those looking to claim it for free.

In "Happy Game," you step into the shoes of a young boy who falls asleep and awakens in a surreal, gory nightmare world. Amanita Design, known for their quirky puzzles like Chuchel, flips the script here, delivering a game that's pure nightmare fuel. You'll navigate through three distinct nightmares, solving eerie and disturbing puzzles while surrounded by deceptively sweet environments that conceal dark secrets. And if you think the visuals are unsettling, wait until you hear the haunting soundtrack by the Czech band DVA, which is sure to send shivers down your spine.

I was genuinely taken aback to learn that Amanita Design, a studio I associated with the family-friendly Chuchel, created "Happy Game." But if you're skeptical about whether this title is worth your time, take a look at our 2023 review where Will awarded it four stars, praising its immersive atmosphere and horror elements.

Even if "Happy Game" isn't your cup of tea, there's a plethora of new mobile games to explore. Check out our weekly updated list of the top five new mobile games, covering genres from puzzles to action, uploaded every Thursday!
