Conan Exiles modkit FREE! Hue FREE! Trackmania FREE! On PC!
Yes, it’s time for some more free games. As it’s Thursday, it’s another free game day on the Epic Games Store, except that there’s three! Well, two and a modkit
First up is Hue, which debuted on Steam in August 2016, and even though that’s the much cheaper one of the two as it’s an indie game, it looks a damn sight better! The other main game is Trackmania
Annoyingly, Conan Exiles had been listed as being free from 4pm today, but they switched it late. However, if you have the game, you can get a free modkit for it.
But how to claim these games?
First up: what are these games about?
Hue: This is a vibrant, award-winning puzzle-adventure, where you alter the world by changing its background color. Includes full colorblind support, using symbols as a color aid. Features:
- You explore a dangerous grey land, unearthing coloured fragments on a journey to find your missing mother.
- As obstacles match the background, they disappear, creating new and exciting puzzles – full of peril, mystery… and colours unseen.
- Stark silhouetted art style with bright, bold colours.
- Over 30 original music tracks, composed exclusively for Hue.
- Professionally voiced narration by Anna Acton and Matthew Wade, some of the UK’s best television talent.
- Full colourblind support, using symbols as a colour aid.
- Razer Chroma, Corsair RGB plus many more coloured LED devices supported on Windows
Also, Trackmania: the racing franchise from Ubisoft Nadeo, is back with the most compelling remake of Trackmania Nations:
- STARTER ACCESS: Enjoy a fun racing experience for free with regularly updated content and collectable rewards.
- NO AI, REAL PLAYERS’ GHOSTS: Even solo, race against other players’ ghosts that are close to your level to help you improve progressively, at your own pace.
- REGULARLY UPDATED CONTENT: 25 official tracks, updated every 3 months and playable solo, online and locally to practice your racing skills.
- PROGRESSION: You can either play by yourself and enjoy the drive, or collect medals and assess your skills with regional and international rankings.
Conan Exiles synopsis: After Conan himself saves your life by cutting you down from the corpse tree, you must quickly learn to survive. Weather scouring sandstorms, shield yourself from intense temperatures and hunt animals for food and resources. Explore a vast and seamless world, from the burning desert in the south to the snow-capped mountains of the north.
Forge the legacy of your clan as you fight to reclaim and dominate the Exiled Lands. Use the powerful building system to create anything from a small home to entire cities piece by piece. Wage war using swords, bows, siege weapons, and even take control of giant avatars of the gods to crush the homes of your enemies in epic battles.
This is an online multiplayer survival game, now with mounts and mounted combat, set in the lands of Conan the Barbarian. Enter a vast, open-world sandbox and play together with friends and strangers as you build your own home or even a shared city. Survive freezing cold temperatures, explore loot-filled dungeons, develop your character from a lowly peasant to a mighty barbarian, and fight to dominate your enemies in epic siege wars.
It can be played in full single-player, co-op, or persistent online multiplayer.
So, how to claim these games for free?
For Hue and Trackmania: Bring up the Epic Games Launcher (available from epicgames.com if you haven’t got it already), then go to Store, and you’ll see he game. Below the trailer and information about it, you’ll see the word ‘Get’ where the price is. Then, when the next screen comes up, click on ‘Place Order’… even though it’s free, then “I agree”. Along the way, it may also ask if you want to give your email address to the makers of the game for their mailing list, but this is a choice, rather than a requirement. Hue expires on July 9th at 4pm UK time. The other offerings are not showing an expiry date/time right now.
For the Conan Exiles modkit, search for the game and then the sole free item at this time is the modkit. Still, grab it now for when it does come.
