Several limited-time PC game giveaways are currently live across Steam and the Epic Games Store, with some titles expiring as early as January 29. The offers cover a mix of narrative-driven experiences, platformers, and larger experimental titles, giving players a chance to expand their libraries at no cost.
Below is a full breakdown of what’s currently available and when each giveaway ends.
Steam Free Games
Along the Edge
Free until January 29 at 12:00 PM CST
Along the Edge is a narrative-focused visual novel centered on Daphne, a woman who moves to the French countryside following a painful breakup and pregnancy loss. As the story unfolds, players uncover a mysterious witching lineage tied to her family history.
The game features branching dialogue paths, romance options, and multiple endings shaped by player choices. It currently holds a Very Positive rating on Steam, with strong praise for its art style, emotional storytelling, and atmosphere.
Cursedland
Free until February 1
Cursedland is a 2D platformer built around fast-paced movement, humor-driven encounters, and deliberately challenging level design. While lighter in narrative, the game leans heavily into comedic presentation and old-school difficulty.
Kiki
Free until January 31
Kiki is a 3D platformer focused on obstacle navigation and environmental hazards. Levels emphasize timing and movement rather than combat, offering a more traditional platforming experience with varied stage design.
Epic Games Store Free Games
Rustler
Free until January 29 at 10:00 AM CST
Rustler is a medieval-themed, top-down action game often described as a parody of classic GTA-style gameplay. Players explore an open world filled with satirical humor, chaotic combat, and absurd medieval interpretations of modern systems.
Reception has been mixed, but the game remains a notable free pickup due to its scope and unique theme.
Next Free Game: Definitely Not Fried Chicken
Following Rustler, Epic Games Store will rotate in Definitely Not Fried Chicken, a management-focused title where players operate a fried chicken restaurant as a front for a criminal operation. The game blends base management with covert logistics systems and strategic expansion.
What This Means for Players
While the holiday giveaway rush has ended, free game promotions remain active across major PC storefronts. With multiple deadlines approaching quickly, players interested in building their libraries should prioritize claims before January 29.
Using both Steam and Epic Games Store rotations remains one of the easiest ways to collect a wide variety of genres without spending anything — especially for players who enjoy narrative games and experimental indie titles.
