While many fans should be sure to check out20 Minutes Till Dawn, it’s worth mentioning thatA Plague Tale: Innocenceis rumored to be the January 3 game andMarvel’s Guardians of the Galaxywill be the final game, lasting from January 4 until January 11. TheEpic Games Store mystery game promotionmay be winding down, but based on this selection of games (proven accurate thus far), it doesn’t seem to be slowing down in these final days.
20 Minutes Till Dawnmay not have the same name recognition asA Plague TaleorGOTG, but it’s still an equally great game.20 Minutes Till Dawnis perhaps best described as a Survivors-like, following the samestyle ofVampire Survivorsgameplaywhere players must fend off waves of monsters. Players must survive until dawn, using gems from each round to unlock characters, weapons, etc., to complement its roguelike elements. The main difference between it andVampire Survivorsis that attacks and recharges are not automatic.20 Minutes Till Dawnwas an instant commercial success, with it also earning a Strong OpenCritic rating with a Top Critic Average of 77.

To highlight the sheer quality and variety of its gameplay, some of20 Minutes Till Dawn’s best buildsare the self-explanatory Infinite Flame build with Scarlett, the chaotic Bladestorm build with Abby, or the Batwoman build which focuses on the Batgun (also with Abby).
