- Download and keep this unsettling puzzle adventure at no cost
- Navigate three distinct nightmares to save a child trapped in recurring night terrors
Epic Games Store's mobile platform has announced this week's complimentary game: Happy Game by Amanita Design. Despite its cheerful title, the experience is anything but pleasant—except for players claiming it as a free permanent addition to their library.
In Happy Game, you guide a young boy through a trippy nightmare after he falls asleep and awakens in a gruesome realm of chaos. Amanita Design subverts their whimsical puzzle-solving legacy from titles like Chuchel, transforming it into pure psychological horror.
You'll confront three separate nightmares, solving bizarre and unsettling puzzles while sweet-looking environments conceal truly disturbing imagery and sounds. The eerie soundtrack by Czech band DVA ensures auditory unease lingers long after you've stopped playing.
Happy happy joy joyI was genuinely startled to learn Amanita Design developed Happy Game, having primarily associated them with Chuchel—a wildly animated yet ultimately family-friendly experience.
If you're uncertain whether Happy Game deserves your attention, I recommend reading our 2023 review where Will awarded it four stars, praising its atmospheric horror and unique approach.
Even if Happy Game doesn't appeal to you, there's no shortage of new mobile releases to explore. Discover our weekly updated selection of top five new mobile games across every genre—from puzzles to action—published every Thursday!
