Ligesom deck-building RPG Hand of Fate 2.
Hvis du gik glip af det første gang, vil Creative Assemblys klassiske rum-gyser Alien: Isolation igen være gratis i Epic Games Store næste torsdag, den 22. april, med underholdende dækbyggende RPG Hand of Fate 2, der kommer bagud.
Alien: Isolation originally released back in 2014, offering up a delectable slice of claustrophobic first-person horror that follows Amanda Ripley’s attempts to track down her considerably more famous mum, Ellen – portrayed by Sigourney Weaver in the movies.
Snart nok tager den rejse Amanda ombord på rumskibet Sevastopol, hvor, ville du tro det, en dødelig Xenomorph er på jagt.

The resulting action – a ceaseless game of cat-and-mouse, driven by an unscripted and terrifyingly unpredictable AI alien – is as breathlessly tense as it is wonderfully atmospheric, with Creative Assembly perfectly capturing the delightfully lo-fi 70s look of the original Alien movie. It is, in other words, well worth picking up.
As for Hand of Fate 2, it’s a deliciously old-school dungeon-crawler, in which everything – the map you’ll explore, the stories you’ll uncover, the enemies you’ll encounter, even weapons and items – is determined (and visually represented) by a deck of cards. And as you push forward, you’ll unlock new cards, opening up further possible permutations for future adventures.

It’s stuffed with wonderfully evocative writing, but its real star is the Dealer, your brilliantly voiced constant companion, who offers droll observations and veiled threats from the other side of the table as he shuffles his deck and plays each new hand.
Alien: Isolation and Hand of Fate 2 vil være gratis at tilføje til dit Epic Games Store-bibliotek fra næste torsdag den 22. april i en uge.
