Claimed games will remain permanently in the user’s library. Despite mixed reviews on Steam, these free offerings provide an opportunity to try the games with friends. The Epic Games Store also offers a way to download mobile games directly. By scanning a QR code with a mobile phone’s camera, users are directed to a download page.

Residual is an exploration-survival game with crafting features and a Personal Disaster Bot, casting the player as a crash survivor on a hazardous alien planet. Rated E for Everyone, Residual is available for Android phones and iOS devices (in the EU). The PC and Mac versions are available for purchase at $19.99.
