I know Epic is not well liked, but I always go out of my way to claim free games. I've read somewhere that epic has to pay all claimed free games to the developer.

Either way. It's a free point 'n click for people who are interested.

Supposedly developers get a flat fee for being the weekly freebie, so the money has already changed hands regardless of whether you download it or not
