Gloriously grimstealth gameA Plague Tale: Innocence- you know, that game with the rats - is currently free to keep over on the Epic Games Store. If you’ve somehow missed it before now, it’s well worth playing in my opinion - especially for the low price of nothing.

It’s a game that most likely remember because of the unsettling mobs of red-eyed rodents, which you’ll need to shoo away with torchlight as you make your way through various locales and meet people who may or may not end up dying horrible rat-related deaths. But they might end up dying from a sling shot to the head or another grisly demise, depending on your approach.
Usually £35 or so, A Plague Tale: Innocence isfree to keep from Epic Games Store until 4pm GMT tomorrowas part of Epic’s seasonal game giveaways, which have also includedEscape Academy,20 Minutes Until Dawn,Saints Rowand others.
Having enjoyed my own time with A Plague Tale: Innocence, I’d definitely recommend it. While not perfect - our own Alice B rightly pointed out that its bosses are a bit weakback when it came out in 2019- it’s got a distinctly original setting, some decent story beats and a deliciously dark atmosphere that comes together into an enjoyable (if that’s the word) package.
Innocence leads directly into sequelA Plague Tale: Requiem, which came out a couple of years ago and seemed to go down fairly well with folks - even if its storytelling perhaps wasn’t always up to snuff. If Innocence leaves you craving more rat-based puzzles, Requiem’salso on sale for more than half priceuntil the 10th.
