Today's Epicmas giveaway is the "full" paid version of the online dungeon crawl Dark and Darker.

Link[store.epicgames.com]

Details:
- Account/DRM required: Epic Games (NOT Steam)

Dark and Darker lists as FTP but "Legendary Status" is the only purchasable DLC so this is technically the full game. Yeah, I know, kind of sketchy but we'll probably be getting headliners tomorrow and Wednesday so we can cut them a bit of slack on this one.
