DARQ is free on PC this week

Halloween is the perfect time of the year to enjoy horror games. Epic Games knows it, and they have chosen suitable games to give away for free this week. Last week you could delve into the world of dreams thanks to Among the Sleep, which was available for free on Epic Games Store. This week the scenario is completely changed in DARQ, a horror adventure game that takes a completely different approach to that mysterious universe we visit when we are sleeping. 

What's DARQ about?

DARQ is a psychological horror adventure that lets you join a boy called Lloyd in his unsettling journey about a world of nightmares. Despite knowing that he is dreaming, Lloyd can't wake up from the terrible nightmare he is experiencing. As he explores the deeper corners of his mind, he is hunted by fearsome monsters that he has to avoid at all costs. Fortunately, his conscious mind allows him to manipulate the physics of the world where he is trapped, and he can move objects, rotate rooms, and more. By altering his surroundings, he will have to avoid getting caught while he looks for a way of waking up and escaping from this twisted dreamland.

DARQ offers you a challenging combination of puzzles that you have to solve to progress in a dark and immersive experience that will keep you glued to the screen until you succeed. The version of the game that you can claim for free until next Thursday is DARQ: Complete Edition, which also includes a couple of DLC with additional locations for you to explore. 

You just have to visit Epic Games Store to claim the game for free on PC and add it permanently to your library of games. If you are looking for other horror games at the best price to enjoy during Halloween, you can find game deals on our comparator anytime.
