If you’re a fan of games like Gone Home and What Remains of Edith Finch – games that tell a story through the arrangement of objects, the characteristics of an environment – then you won’t want to miss out on the chance to win The Uncertain: Episode 1 – The Last Quiet Day.
If you’re after more freebies then here are some of the best free PC games.
As in other contemplative exploration games, The Uncertain plunges you into a scenario devoid of people to talk to – the story is told through interactions with inanimate objects. In this case, the whole of humanity has been wiped out by years of wars.
So who are you in this game? You control an engineering robot that has the catchy name RT-217NP. It lives in a world of ones and zeroes and is curious about the beings that came before it – those that built it in the first place.
As such, you need to explore the uneasy post-apocalyptic locations, solving puzzles not only with logic but by piecing together a history that has been denied you, a truth hidden away in the details in front of you.
The Uncertain currently has two episodes but we have the first episode for you here to get you into the thick of the adventure without having to fork out for it.
