Tech
You have less than 24 hours to grab this open-world sandbox game for free
The latest Epic Games Store freebie is TerraTech, which is perfect for anyone with a penchant for building mechanical monstrosities. As the holiday break begins, Epic is giving away daily free games that anyone can claim, and this blocky creative sandbox experience is the latest offering. You need to get on this lightning fast, however, because it’s only going to be free for 24 hours.
If you like Besiege, Kerbal Space Program, or even Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts, you need to get on TerraTech. I say that because you spend your time in this sandbox game building vehicles. You design blocky cars, planes, tanks, and whatever else your mind can imagine, and then take this fleet across the world to become the ultimate intergalactic prospector.
You can construct all manner of vehicles to gather resources, defend yourself, and eventually build up a base. The world of TerraTech is procedurally generated, which means all manner of mineral pockets, opponents, and other dangers can pop up on your travels.
There’s more than just the campaign to TerraTech, though, as you’ve also got the creative mode and gauntlet challenge, depending on if you want to relax or push your designs to their limits. You can also play the campaign and creative modes in co-op, alongside a death match mode that’s exactly what you think it is – as a lifetime Robot Wars and BattleBots fan, this pleases me greatly.
Outside of the Epic Games Store, TerraTech also has quite the status. With over 18,000 user reviews on Steam, it’s currently sitting at an incredibly respectable 92%, or ‘very positive.’ In fact, the recent reviews are actually in the ‘overwhelmingly positive’ range, which is even better.
Keep in mind that you do not have long to redeem the game for free, as another one will be revealed every day during the 2024 holiday period. The Epic Games Store is giving TerraTech away for free until Sunday December 22 at 8am PT / 11am ET / 4pm GMT, and Monday December 23 at 3am AEDT. You can grab it here.
