A Short Hike, Anodyne 2, and Mutazione are free on the Epic Games Store this week

Epic Games Store has put on offer Anodyne 2: Return To Dust, A Short Hike, and Mutazione to claim for free this week, taking the place of GoNNER and Offworld Trading Company.

A Short Hike is a relaxing adventure title where you simply go for a short hike on a lovely little island. There are no monsters to kill, only a world to explore. It also features an original soundtrack composed by Mark Sparling. Here’s how the Epic Games Store describes the title:

Hike, climb, and soar through the peaceful mountainside landscapes of Hawk Peak. Follow the trails or explore the backcountry as you make your way to the summit. Along the way, meet other hikers, discover hidden treasures, and take in the world around you.

Anodyne 2: Return To Dust is an action adventure title. Although it’s the second game in the Anodyne series, playing the first game is not a requirement. It was received positively at its launch by players and critics alike and was ported over to Android and the Nintendo Switch in the following years. Here’s how the Epic Games Store describes it:

Run, jump, and drive across vast, dreamy 3D landscapes. Shrink into surreal, 2D dungeons inside of characters' bodies. Travel the world, meet strange people, and save the world from the dangerous Nano Dust.

Mutazione is an adventure title featuring a world ripe for exploring, full of mutants, and gossip. It’s a small-town drama story where you play as a 15-year-old kid as she traverses through a mutant community on a resort. Here’s how the Epic Games Store describes the title:

A mutant soap opera where small-town gossip meets the supernatural. Join Kai as she arrives in the mysterious community of Mutazione to care for her ailing grandfather. Discover scenic hangouts, magical gardens, new friends, and old secrets...
