The Epic Games Store has unveiled its latest offering, a free PC game that will be available for download until May 8. After this date, it will be replaced by another title, but those who claim the current game within this window will have it permanently added to their library. Notably, there are no subscription fees involved, unlike other platforms such as PS Plus or Xbox Game Pass. All that is required is a free Epic Games Store account.
Game Overview
This week’s featured game is Super Space Club, developed and published by GrahamOfLegend. Typically priced at .99, this colorful arcade shooter has garnered a commendable 94% approval rating on Steam, albeit from a modest pool of 36 reviews. While there is no Metacritic score available, the initial reception suggests a positive player experience.
Described as an “endless arcade gunner,” Super Space Club invites players into a vibrant universe accompanied by relaxing lo-fi music. Players assume the roles of skilled misfit pilots tasked with defending the galaxy against various threats while completing exhilarating missions. The game’s tagline, “In space, everyone can hear you groove,” sets the tone for a fun and engaging experience.
The game offers a variety of characters, ships, and weapons, allowing players to customize their gameplay. Players can choose between unique pilots like Olly, who launches fireworks, and Roscoe, who specializes in stealthy, ship-seeking shots. As players navigate through the cosmos, they must manage their ship’s energy carefully; running low can leave them vulnerable to enemy attacks. The challenge continues with relentless waves of adversaries, ensuring that players remain on their toes.
While specific gameplay duration data is not available, most Steam user reviews indicate that players spend between 2 to 10 hours engaging with the game. This suggests a compact yet enjoyable experience for those looking to dive into the action.
