The Amazon Prime subscription has some nice surprises in store for PC gamers this December. Two titles are offered for free via the Luna and Prime Gaming platform: one immerses you in the Forgotten Realms of Dungeons & Dragons, the other in a sweet and festive quest alongside Santa’s granddaughter.
Starting this Thursday, all Prime members can add two radically different games to their library but perfectly in the spirit of December: “a classic collection of Dungeons and Dragons and a festive hidden object game”, as the official announcement specifies.
Forgotten Realms: a cult RPG to (re)discover
The big attraction of this week is undoubtedly Forgotten Realms: The Archives Collection Two. A real Proust madeleine for fans of 90s role-playing games, this box set brings together several legendary titles from the “Gold Box” series, with turn-based combat, dungeon exploration and customizable heroes.
“This boxed set brings together several classic ‘Gold Box’ D&D role-playing games set in the Forgotten Realms, with group adventures, turn-based combat and old-fashioned dungeon crawling.” Among the titles included, we find Pool of Radiance, Curse of the Azure Bonds, Pools of Darkness or even Gateway to the Savage Frontier.
For fans, it is also an opportunity to build a real personalized saga, since “characters can be transferred from one game to another”. And for those who dream of creating their own stories, Unlimited Adventures even allows you to build your own AD&D campaigns.
Christmas, candy and hidden objects with Candy Storm
For a lighter atmosphere, head to the snowy and magical forests of Christmas Adventure: Candy Storm. You play Lisa, Santa’s granddaughter, determined to deliver her presents on time despite a sweet surprise.
In this hidden object game full of mini-games, “her car suddenly turns into candy and the whole world around her is covered in candy.” You’ll have to explore Christmas settings, solve puzzles, and save the holidays before it’s too late. This light and family title offers a welcome breather, ideal between two intense RPG sessions.
How to claim these two free games with Prime Gaming?
The two titles do not activate in the same way, but the process remains simple. For Forgotten Realmsthe code can be retrieved from Prime Gaming, then activated on the platform GOG. “After clicking ‘Get Game’ from the Prime site, go to the GOG complaints page and click Continue.”
