For those that don't know: Close to the Sun is a first-person horror game meets adventure game inspired by the likes of BioShock. Developed by Storm in a Teacup and published by Wired Productions, the game debuted last year to largely middling critical response, but it did find an audience. Meanwhile, Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments hit back in 2014 via Frogwares and Focus Home Interactive. For awhile it was actually delisted from digital platforms. Only recently did this change, and now it's free. In other words, make sure to download it because who knows, maybe it will end up delisted again.
For those that don't know: Epic Games Store gives out free games very regularly. At the very least, it dishes out one free game each week. However, sometimes it dishes out more than this. Usually these games aren't the newest or biggest games, but they are, at the very least, worth downloading.
