On GOG website you sometimes have to click the "purchase" button to get the free game. In Galaxy, you just click the "free" button.

Ah yes, I don't use Galaxy and did it via website.

I was just here. Where did I go...?

- Wasteland 1, this is a bonus in Wasteland 2 DC, but the way GOG does this isn't in your face. You need to go in library, click the Wasteland 2 DC game, select the "More..." and then serial keys.

I don't see "serial keys' option in the More section, nor is it listed as an extra or dlc item??

Make sure you are in the Wasteland 2 Director's Cut page (i.e. click on that game image in your GOG library on the website), then click the "More", there should be a "Serial keys" menu in there that opens a new tab at the bottom.

It's a really none-intuitive system. Every time I have to look all over the place to find where it is and it's not like GOG explanation are better.

Nope, not there. Does the game need to be installed first maybe? Because right now it isn't.

I don't believe anymore.

Nothing needs to be installed. Mine was there the moment the game was added after clicking the free button and it's still there after claiming Wasteland 1. I installed nothing, in fact I already own Wasteland 2 (both version) on Steam. I only did it because they were free.

It doesn't show up in Galaxy app for me but was able to get it on the web site. Almost all the options in the "More" menu are different between the two places.

Epic's free game today is The Talos Principle. Already played it on Steam but definitely worth a look, especially for free.

I usually don't make posts for Epic's weekly free games but this week is a bit special.
Kingdom Come Deliverance is for free this week at the epic store. That's a really good one.
Also Aztez is for free as well there but I don't know that one.

This is a PSA reminder that EPIC IS STILL A TRAP.

After time adrift among open stars,
past tides of light, and through shoals of dust,
I will return to where I began.

In much less exciting news, GOG currently has a page up with giveaways. As far as I can see most of them are free to play anyway or have been given away before as they are fairly old (and not that great) but hey, maybe someone will still find something they like:
