Last week, the Epic Games Store brought us two high-octane heavy metal titles. This week, they’re diversifying a bit, with one colorful classic game that will hit you in the nostalgia and a creepy top-down adventure game right in time for Halloween. These games will be free on the Epic Games Store this week from October 13-20, 2022.
Check out our Epic Games Store free games list for a full roundup of all the weekly freebies.
Epic Games Store Free Games this Week for October 13, 2022

Darkwood
Darkwood, developed by Acid Wizard Studio, is a top-down survival horror game with a dark, disturbing aesthetic and creepy soundtrack. If you’re a big fan of indie horror and like playing games alone in the middle of the night, the 2017 release of Darkwood will get you in the Halloween mood.

ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove! is a 4-player co-op roguelike modeled after the classic ToeJam & Earl created in 1991. Initially released in 2019 by HumanNature Studios, ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove! takes elements of the original SEGA title and presents it with updated graphics and mechanics.
