Cook up some Definitely Not Fried Chicken with the Epic Games Store free game of the week

If you’ve ever wanted to own a restaurant chain and work your way toward having a successful business, Epic Games Store does not have your back with their free game this week.

• Definitely Not Fried Chicken
  • Release Date: September 28, 2023
  • Game Type: Management Sim
  • POV: 3rd person, isometric
  • Party: Single player
  • DLC: None.

This game starts off exactly how you’d want it to — fried chicken franchise owner sets off and tries to make it in business. Though, you quickly find that fried chicken does not a global empire make, and you quickly learn how to branch out into… less legal forms of business. Of course, your first passion is still fried chicken, so you’ll keep the restaurant open, but maybe you’ll just start including a new set of secret menu options. It’s like the secret menu at Starbucks, only with slightly more drugs!

While, as always, free is free, and the premise sounds interesting, some people in the Steam reviews have noted a lot of bugginess lately. I’d recommend picking it up, but having the expectation that it might not go your way.
