Epic Games: Download these free games to your computer today

The internet is a wonderful place. You wouldn’t be here without it. The internet really is pretty great. It’s humanity’s greatest entertainment center. From streaming movies, to messaging friends the world over, to keeping up-to-date with your favorite YouTubers, there’s an endless number of activities to keep you entertained. 

Chief among these computer activities that keep your boredom at bay is computer games. More specifically – free downloadable computer games. Here’s a list of epic free video games you can play on the computer.  

We Are Broken 

Would you break under the interrogation of three blood-thirsty vampires? In We Are Broken, you can find out. We Are Broken is a story-driven indie game where vampires have managed to enslave mankind. Only a small resistance force remains and you take on the role of three humans who have been captured by the enemy. 

These three vampires want to know where the human resistance hideout is and it’s your job not to give in under the pressure, no matter what gnarly interrogation techniques they use. You may think it won’t be that hard considering your captors will be stuck behind a screen, but we recommend you play in the dark to kick the epic suspense up a notch. You’ll be quite intrigued by the sinister backstories these vampires reveal. 

Homicide Squad: Hidden Crimes 

Homicide Squad: Hidden Crimes combines the match-three puzzle gameplay of Candy Crush with the observant fun of I-Spy – and you get to solve crimes in the process! It’s a strange setup really, but somehow it works. The character avatars in this game are absolutely artful, the story is solid,  and you’ll appreciate the ability to talk & trade objects with friends.

If you’re the kind of person who loves the forensic mystery of shows like CSI but doesn’t feel like you’re smart or motivated enough to do that type of work in real life, this game is your chance to get in on the action without too much effort. Solve crimes by finding hidden objects and solving match-three puzzles. This fictional version of New York City will thank you. 

Hello Guest

Yes, this was made by the same publisher as Hello Neighbor. tinyBuild first released Hello Guest as a Hello Neighbor spinoff, but it soon became clear Hello Guest was essentially the pre-alpha to Hello Neighbor 2. In Hello Guest, players get to try out an open world concept in a similarly creepy environment, but this time you play as a security guard on a night shift in a very vacant and eerie Golden Apple Amusement Park. 

As usual, the villainous AI reacts to your gameplay and learns how to most effectively get the best of you the longer you play. This built-in intelligence makes a creepy game that much creepier and will have you sporting delighted goosebumps the entire time you’re gripping your computer mouse. 

Will you be able to outsmart the AI and secure the furthest reaches of the park against vandals, or will the creepy beak man attack you from behind? Hello Guest is a free stealth horror game at its finest.

Spongebob: Krusty Cook-Off 

If you’re into point & click cooking games, Spongebob: Krusty Cook-Off is the epic free game for you. Even if you’re not necessarily a fan of Spongebob, the amount of gameplay available in this free game makes it a quality pick. 

Spongebob: Krusty Cook-Off combines an entertaining story with point & click fun. As usual, Mr. Krabs is looking for his next money-making scheme, Spongebob has good-naturedly pledged his allegiance to the fry-cook cause, and Plankton is behind the scenes trying to unravel business. What’s great about this game is it’s not laden with ads. You really don’t have to watch a single one unless you want the game reward freebies. 

The story doesn’t get in the way of gameplay too much but if you’re the kind of person who plays a game for its story you’ll appreciate the funny writing. In this game, you’ll assist the Bikini Bottom gang in cooking up all kinds of orders. From kelp smoothies to the classic krabby patties you’ll find yourself addicted to leveling up. You can even enter online tournaments to win grand prizes that’ll make your fry-cooking a breeze.

Elvenar Fantasy Kingdom

Think Catan meets Valhalla Hills. This free city builder game takes place in the magical kingdom of Elvenar. Develop your realm by gathering resources, researching ancient technologies and trading with other players. The cartoony graphics in this game are admirable. You’ll get the choice to play as either a human or an elf and be able to welcome plenty of other fantasy races into your realm as you play. 

Elvenar Fantasy Kingdom has dwarves, dragons, fairies, and more. Create your dream kingdom of magic as you discover new provinces and expand your city.
