Epic Games is back with another exciting free release this week, and this time it's the retro side-scrolling extravaganza, Gigapocalypse! Fresh off their victory in the legal battle against Apple, Epic Games continues to deliver fantastic content, and Gigapocalypse is a perfect example of their commitment to gamers.
Drawing inspiration from classic giant monster movies, Japanese kaiju, and iconic games like Rampage, Gigapocalypse puts you in control of a colossal beast. Your mission? To unleash chaos and destruction across cities, crushing cars and toppling buildings in a thrilling power fantasy. The game's retro pixel art style adds a nostalgic charm, making it a must-play for fans of old-school gaming.
But Gigapocalypse isn't just about destruction. You'll also get to personalize your giga with a Tamagotchi-style minigame, where you can nurture and customize your monster. Uncover secrets to decorate your giga's home and unlock pets to join them on their rampage, ensuring no skyscraper remains standing.
Epic Games' tradition of offering free releases has been a boon for PC gamers, but it's also a fantastic way to discover hidden indie gems on mobile. Gigapocalypse offers hours of fun with its city-destroying gameplay, wrapped in a charming enough package that you can enjoy the destruction without dwelling on the consequences.
