It’s been a busy week: Of the numerous blockbusters that have been released, some have turned out to be hits, others disappointing.
If you really didn’t find anything there, you can still use the free games of the week, because Steam and Epic currently have three games for free, all of which are worthwhile.

9th place: Fallout 3 – “That was a real eye-opener” – The ten best open-world games
Genre: Roleplay | Developer: Bethesda | Release: 28. October 2008 | Free until: 27. October 2022
We probably don’t have to tell you that Fallout 3 is one of the best role-playing games of all time. In post-apocalyptic Washington DC, you’ll deal with all sorts of rabble like bandits, mutants or deathclaws. The great playful freedom allows you to solve many tasks through dialogues or sneak attacks.
What many do not know: Fallout 3 is full of mysteries, such as the ominous radio messages:

Incidentally, all five DLCs are included in the Game of the Year edition given away by Epic – so if you already own Fallout 3 but are still missing them, the offer is worth it for you.

Test: The master test for game connoisseurs
The highlight of the games: Graphics and genres change drastically over time. Most of the time you’ll be playing an RPG like Zelda or Final Fantasy, but don’t be surprised if a game of Pac-Man or Hearthstone suddenly awaits you.
