Some pretty good games there, like En Garde!
FYI if you want to keep up with these offers, they release them on Thursdays like EGS does but later in the day

To think I spent $10 on Greedfall like a chump last summer sale when I could have waited until November to claim it for free!

I'll grab Shadow of TR thanks

I didn't own a lot of these and I didn't own any of them on GOG or Epic.

Maneater caught my attention, so I gave it a look.

Twenty minutes later... I now have 51 games worth $965 at today's prices on Steam!!!

Thanks, Liam!

You weren't kidding, it really is 51 games currently. Thanks to Liam, and thanks to the Heroic team for making them easily accessible!

The Epic and GOG games showed up in Heroic right away, but the Amazon ones have not. Maybe it has something to do with me linking my Amazon account to my wife's, since I dropped my Prime subscription long ago, but she still has one...

I've spent a few hours on GreedFall over the last couple of days, and I'm quite enjoying it. Seems like a solid RPG so far, though it's a shame that there's no proper jump mechanism. My thumb hits the space bar and I get an action menu instead :-)
Apparently, GreedFall II is due to be released soon.

My gaming library is full of games that I bought thinking I got a deal at $10-$15, then sat in my gaming backlog unplayed, were eventually made available for free, and are still unplayed.
