Free to grab: Watch Dogs and The Stanley Parable
Epic Games has announced that Watch Dogs and The Stanley Parable are free on Epic Games Store. From today and until March 26th, PC gamers can visit their EGS pages and acquire their free copies.
Watch_Dogs takes place in a fully simulated living city. Using your smartphone, you have real-time control over the city’s infrastructure. Thus, you can trap your enemy in a 30-car pileup by manipulating the traffic lights, or stop a train, and then board it to evade the authorities. On the other hand, The Stanley Parable is a first-person exploration game.
The two games will be available for free until March 26th 2020. Just head over to Epic Games Store or navigate to the games in their launcher before March 26th 2020, add the games to your cart and checkout. Simple as that. After that, the games are yours to keep, and play, forever.
- The Stanley Parable will be available for free until next Thursday, March 26th 2020. Get it for free at this link.

Never played either, but I'd say you did the right thing.
...the moment I had to take a selfie as a task, I quit and deleted it.

I never played either because I can't stand people in real life who are always looking down at their phone. Didn't seem to make for a great main character.

I played both. Watchdogs was good. Not great, but worth playing.
Stanley Parable was stupid. It's fine as something that's free but definitely not worth paying for. I really don't understand all the positive reviews for it. "wow it breaks the 4th wall!" oh who the hell cares? That's what makes it appealing to you? The narrator was the only thing good about the "game" but he gets stale real fast when trying to find the different endings.
Keep in mind, the vast majority of what I play are indie games. I didn't have high expectations for Stanley Parable but I didn't think it was going to be so boring.

The Stanley Parable isn't for everyone I suppose, I loved it when I played it the better part of a decade ago. As I remember it, the writing and voice acting were excellent but the gameplay itself is very basic / just walking around.

The first Watch Dogs was a really good game, can only recommend. Its unfortunate they ruined the second one by turning it into some hipster/gen z nonsense, the moment I had to take a selfie as a task, I quit and deleted it.
