Double Fine have made Brütal Legend free for the next ~10 hours (666 minutes according to their bsky post), to honor Tim Curry
about the game:
Brütal Legend is an action-adventure that marries visceral action combat with open-world freedom. Set in a universe somewhere between Lord of the Rings and Spinal Tap, it’s a fresh take on the action/driving genre, which in this case is full of imitation cover bands, demons intent on enslaving humanity and Heavy metal tunes. Featuring the talents of comedian, actor and musician, Jack Black as super roadie Eddie Riggs, as well as cameos by some of the biggest names in metal music it’s a wild ride in the belly of the beast that is not to be missed by gamers and Metalheads alike.
Oh, dang it! I missed it, and I’ve been wanting this game since it came out.
Anywho, I think it’s super cool that they did this, and in honor of Tim Curry. <3
Thank you for posting it here! :)
ahh sorry to hear you missed it! hopefully it will come up another time, under less mournful conditions ideally! :)
It’s been free before so not unlikely that it’ll be free again!
It’s an excellent game if anyone doesn’t already have it. I would highly recommend. The game plays decent the voice acting is excellent. And it’s double fine.
Also a ridiculously good soundtrack. Except for the one troll track they made for the game that catches you offguard every. Damn. Time.
Great game! Great music! Was never a metal fan, but grew a real apprciation and respect for it through this game.
I liked the weird action fighter/rts gameplay in this. Think I might have been the only one but it was unusual and neat
