The Epic Games Store continues its tradition of offering free games, and this week's gem is Doodle Kingdom: Medieval. You can grab and claim it to keep now, no strings attached! This game is part of the long-running Doodle series, which pioneered the merge-like genre before it was even named. In Doodle Kingdom: Medieval, you'll combine elements to create more complex ones, a concept that predates even Little Alchemy. But here, the focus shifts to crafting narrative elements like dragons, peasantry, and knights, rather than just mixing basic elements like fire and water.
The game features multiple modes to keep you engaged. In Genesis mode, you'll experiment freely, creating new elements at your leisure. Quest mode challenges you to complete specific tasks using certain elements, while Return of the King mode has you working to restore your kingdom to its former glory. Whether you're a fan of the original Doodle Kingdom or new to the series, this revamped remaster offers plenty of content to explore.
**My kingdom for a horse!** If you're familiar with the first Doodle Kingdom, you'll recognize many of these elements. While it may not appeal to those who've already delved into top-tier titles like Super Meat Boy or Knights of the Old Republic, there's no denying the value of a free game. So, why not play god once more and dive into Doodle Kingdom: Medieval?
