A crash-landed crew, a brutal planet, and a 63 Metascore: grab the game critics shrugged at while it’s $0.
Symmetry is free on the Epic Games Store until April 1. Sleepless Clinic’s 2018 sci-fi survival manager strands three survivors on a frozen world and demands you “ensure each member of the crew has enough to eat and rests well enough to carry out vital ship repairs.”
Reviewers were less than impressed. OpenCritic’s Top Critic Average sits at 63, with only 13 percent of critics recommending the title. Complaints center on clunky controls, thin content, and a difficulty curve that feels less “challenging” than “deliberately cruel.”
Epic is currently running four freebies at once: SymmetryWave Gods: Ammo NightHavendock, and Hyper Echelon. Next week, Clone Drone in the Danger Zone replaces the latter two from April 2-9.
