Following their triumphant legal victory against Apple, Epic Games is not resting on their laurels but instead continuing their tradition of weekly free mobile releases with the exciting Gigapocalypse! This retro side-scroller, drawing inspiration from classics like Rampage and the thrilling world of giant monster movies and Japanese kaiju, lets you unleash chaos as your very own colossal beast. Revel in the power fantasy as you crush cars, demolish buildings, and lay waste to entire cities, all wrapped up in a charming, pixelated aesthetic that fans of retro gaming will adore.

But Gigapocalypse offers more than just destruction; it's also about nurturing. You can customize and care for your giga in a Tamagotchi-inspired minigame, unlocking secrets to enhance their appearance and home. You can even add pets to join your giga on their rampage, ensuring no skyscraper remains standing.

Epic Games' strategy of offering free releases has been a boon for PC gamers, but it's equally valuable for mobile users, introducing them to fantastic indie titles they might otherwise miss. Gigapocalypse stands out with its promise of hours of enjoyable city destruction, presented in a light-hearted way that avoids dwelling on the consequences. It's a fresh take on classic retro gaming, with enough unique elements to keep players engaged and entertained.
