GI: "Outside of the art style, The World Next Door feels generic and doesn’t do enough to make the adventure feel exciting. I expected something to pay off in the long run, whether it was the story, my choices, or time I spent with characters, but I instead ended the game saying, “That’s it?” It made me feel like I wasted my time getting to know this world and the people who inhabit it."
Starting today, Elite Dangerous and The World Next Door are free at Epic Games Store. The free game offers run until November 26 at 11 AM Eastern. Once you claim them, they’re yours to keep.

The World Next Door is a fairly short game which combines both Visual Novel and Action together along with a unique take on the ‘Match-3’ mechanic. It was surprisingly fun, with a selection of unique characters to interact with and a colourful cast of otherworldly creatures.
