I shouldn't have to do too much work to sell you on free gifts, but this week's Epic Games Store freebies include one I'll advocate for with my whole heart. We've got another pair of rather distinct experiences to look forward to: one a narrative-first RPG where choice is at the heart of the experience, the other a stylish, rhythm-led blast-em up. Don't delay on this one, snatch up both Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat while you can, because you'll be in for a good time whichever you choose to play first.

I was excited to try Robobeat because I really love the idea of games implementing rhythm elements in unique and fun ways. As much as I’ve always enjoyed Guitar Hero, it wasn’t until I got really into Crypt of the Necrodancer: Cadence of Hyrule that I realized how interesting this kind of gameplay could be. And while I never got around to playing BPM: Bullets Per Minute or Metal Hellsinger I have always wanted to experience a game that’s as fast-paced as DOOM 2016 but has the added flair of fighting to the beat. Robobeat not only delivers on that front but gives players a lot of added freedom
