This week’s free offering on the Epic Games Store has arrived just in time for the weekend. Ogu and the Secret Forest, a game also available for purchase on the iOS App Store and Google Play, can now be claimed at no cost on the Epic Games Store for mobile — and once claimed, it's yours to keep.

Think of Ogu and the Secret Forest as a mobile-friendly take on classic Zelda-style adventures. This isometric puzzle RPG puts you in the role of Ogu, a brave young hero on a mission to recover six mystical sigils and ensure the power of the Great One doesn’t fall into the wrong hands.

Your journey will take you across a variety of beautifully crafted environments — from sun-scorched deserts and lush grasslands to dense forests and mysterious ruins. Along the way, you’ll encounter quirky cartoon animal allies, unravel intricate puzzles, and face off against dangerous foes that test both your reflexes and wits. Despite its charming aesthetic, the game doesn’t shy away from challenge, making it a rewarding experience for fans of exploration and strategy.

The secret’s out — and it’s free!

Given its premium price on other platforms, grabbing Ogu and the Secret Forest for free via the Epic Games Store is a smart move. With its blend of familiar adventure mechanics and a fresh, animated twist, it stands out as a must-try for anyone who enjoys action-adventure titles, especially fans of The Legend of Zelda or Metroidvania-style gameplay.

Now fully established on mobile, the Epic Games Store continues to bring its popular free games programme to a wider audience. While it remains to be seen how this impacts mobile gaming habits, offerings like this could very well be the hook that draws in more players.
