A fresh Thursday is upon us, and with it comes a new selection of free-to-play games from the Epic Games Store. Today we have "Aer: Memories of old," a beautiful adventure in which you transform into a bird and explore a strange, ancient realm of floating islands, and "Stranger," the "official companion game" to the show that somehow made David Harbour a sex symbol Things 3: The Game."

Stranger Things 3 is a retro-style action adventure that offers "familiar events from the series" as well as all-new characters, quests, and secrets. Players can take on the role of one of the 12 characters in the show to fight "an evil that appears upside down," and the game supports two-player co-op.

In Aer: Aer: Memories of Old, you become Auk, a shape-shifting girl on a pilgrimage to the land of the gods. The game has been around for a few years, but it's pretty good: we called it "a beautiful game with great flying, but only hampered by an incomprehensible interior and short play time" in our 2017 review. [It would later take its place with the survival MMO Conan Exiles and the watercolor puzzle adventure Hue.

Since then, the survival MMO Conan Exiles and the watercolor puzzle-adventure Hue would take its place.
