The Epic Games Store is offering two free PC games this week for Epic users. For a limited time, you can grab a genre-bending samurai game and a hand-drawn mystery game at no charge.

Shogun Showdown

Shogun Showdown is a stylish, pixel-art game that blends various genres. Its turn-based combat features deck-building elements to build out your character's abilities. With a setting inspired by feudal Japan, you'll fight your way to take down the Shogun during each roguelike run. Shogun Showdown was released two years ago, and has amassed over 3,500 "Overwhelmingly Positive" player reviews on Steam since.

Mindcop

Literally dive into the mind of a murder suspect in Mindcop, a whodunnit detective game. You'll investigate a murder in a small town and can sneak inside the mind of a suspect, which plays out like a puzzle minigame. You only have five days to solve the crime, and each action you do chips away at the time you have remaining. Mindcop was also released two years ago and has over 400 "Very Positive" player reviews on Steam.

If Shogun Showdown and Mindcop catch your eye, all you need to do is log in to the Epic Games Store and claim them. The games will be free until Thursday, Sept. 24 at 11 a.m. EDT.
