You know what it's all about: It's Thursday. Epic gives away free
games on Thursday. I report on what the free game is and give you a
handy link to click on.  It's a convenience for you, and a chance for
me to gripe; it's win-win for everyone involved. So let's get to that
convenient griping!


* Bear and Breakfast
https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/bear-and-breakfast-77c209
    This one is a cutesey management sim; run a bed-and-
    breakfast inn, personalizing it to your liking and trying 
    to keep all your customers happy. It's fairly straight-
    forward... except you're a bear. Also, there's some light 
    adventuring as you explore the forest. The whole thing 
    feels experimental and Indie and I guess if you're into 
    that sort of weird melange of style, it's fine. Me, I 
    prefer something a bit more straightforward and with a 
    bit more meat on its bones. 


Epic isn't wowing me with their choice this week, but that's okay;
there's always next week. See you all in seven days!
