2025 has been a year where the best indie games have thrived. Whether it's larger-scale projects like Sandfall's Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 or smaller yet just as powerful releases such as vedinad's Megabonk and Dogubomb's Blue Prince, they're yet another reminder that small teams can punch just as hard as the big names. Starting from today, you've got a week to snag three indie treats, including Songs of Silence, as free Epic games, and there's enough variety on offer here that you should find something that appeals, whatever your tastes.
