"Gigapocalypse: Epic Games' Free Game of the Week"

Following their triumphant legal victory over Apple, Epic Games isn't resting on its laurels but is instead rolling out another exciting free release for the week: Gigapocalypse! Available now on Epic Games, this retro side-scroller draws inspiration from iconic titles like Rampage and the thrilling world of giant monster movies and Japanese kaiju.

In Gigapocalypse, you take control of your very own colossal beast, tasked with the delightful duty of wreaking havoc on cities. Smash cars, topple buildings, and leave a trail of destruction in your wake as you embody the ultimate power fantasy. With its nostalgic, pixelated art style, this game is a treat for fans craving crunchy, retro-flavored chaos.

But Gigapocalypse isn't just about destruction; it also offers a nurturing side. Engage in a Tamagotchi-inspired minigame to raise and customize your giga. Uncover secrets to deck out your monster's lair and unlock pets that join your beast on its rampage, ensuring no skyscraper remains standing.

Epic Games continues to delight with its policy of free releases, offering not only top-tier PC games but also shining a spotlight on exceptional indie titles for mobile. Gigapocalypse stands out as a fun, engaging experience that lets you enjoy city destruction in a charmingly light-hearted manner, without dwelling on the aftermath.
