The game "Prey" is today's freebie on the epic store
A nice Half-Life-like game but with some crappy collision detection sometime, being stuck in a vent opening is not uncommon unfortunately (some people suggest to try to run then crouch to slide through them)

I'd say it's more like Deus Ex than Half-Life, and getting stuck on geometry is rarer than people will make out as I've run through the game a few times with minimal issues but there certainly are a few snags. The store page also implies that Mooncrash is included as well, can't tell as I haven't installed this version.

The beginning (out of the simulation thing) really reminded me of half life with the character starting to wear his costume/armor and go through an experience that goes wrong and getting a crowbar wrench to defend yourself.

Now for the bugged collisions, must have my legendary bad luck(tm) back as i got stuck in the first vent i opened from inside (only the vent i opened from outside allowed me to go through normally).

Today on the epic store, the freebie is "Control" again (it was a few months ago already), still a very good game (a bit repetitive unfortunately after a while)

X-Morph Defense is free on GOG. It's one of those tower defense games where you also have an action protagonist unit. Going to try it today.

Looks like an interesting take on the tower defense gameplay with shooter elements.

edit : on the epic store today they have "Mages of Mystralia", seems to be an old school action adventure game.

And today's Epic is... Moving Out. It's decent couch co-op in an Overcooked sort of way, but I didn't find it nearly as engrossing.

From a video it seems like a Castlevania-like with a Dark Soul painting (with more dark interior and fog)

Apparently it seems tomorrow it will be "Tomb Raider Trilogy" (Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Shadow of the Tomb Raider)

Salt and Sanctuary has gotten some attention around here, including but not limited to this old thread.

As the leak mentionned, it's the Tomb Raider trilogy for free today on the epic store , 3 games for free

Rise of the Tomb Raider : 20 years Celebration
Shadow of the Tomb Raider : Definitive Edition
Tomb Raider : Game of the Year Edition

(in case you're wondering chronologically the order of release was "Tomb Raider" then "Rise of the Tomb Raider" then "Shadow of the Tomb Raider" )
And with those 3 games, the epic store goes back to its 1 free game by week system, so you have a week to claim the 3 tomb raider games.

I'm pretty happy about this, I hesitated to buy these games only to give my GPU a good kicking, now I can just play it and decide midway to stop if I don't like it... I'm not sure I will like it, the old ones were not for me.

You got as far as the download servers?! I'm still stuck on the payment servers.   :o

I don't use the epic launcher (i add the games to my account through the epic store website itself, then i just use Legendary for download) so maybe it's why i went through the payment part.
Fortunately for those games you have a week to claim them, so hopefully they will be easier to get with time.

Iratus: Lord of the Dead available at GoG... has a vague Darkest Dungeon feel to it, though not really. It a fairly recent release (I want to say late 2019?) and, as I recall, pretty solid. Definitely worth picking up for free.
