The Epic Games Store continues to expand its reach, now available on Android worldwide and iOS in the EU, and with it comes a new free game for users to claim and keep: Doodle Kingdom: Medieval. This week's free offering is a delightful addition to the long-running Doodle series, which pioneered the merge-like genre before it was even named. In Doodle Kingdom: Medieval, players combine elements to create more complex ones, crafting narrative elements such as dragons, peasants, and knights, rather than simply mixing fire and water.
The game offers a variety of modes to keep players engaged. In Genesis mode, you can experiment freely to create new elements. Quest mode challenges you to complete specific tasks using certain elements, while Return of the King mode lets you restore your kingdom to its former glory. Whether you're a fan of the original Doodle Kingdom or new to the series, this revamped remaster offers a fresh take on the classic gameplay.
**My kingdom for a horse!** If you recall our coverage of the first Doodle Kingdom, many elements will feel familiar. While it may not capture those who have already experienced top-tier releases like Super Meat Boy or Knights of the Old Republic, the allure of a free game is undeniable. Now might be the perfect time to dive back into the world of Doodle Kingdom: Medieval and play god once more.
If Doodle Kingdom: Medieval doesn't quite satisfy your gaming appetite, don't worry. Our weekly feature on the top five new mobile games is always here to help you discover the best new releases from the past seven days. So, whether you're looking to claim a free game or explore the latest in mobile gaming, there's plenty to keep you entertained.
