The Epic Games Store weekly giveaway has been on a strong run lately, and this week it hands you two genuinely good indie games instead of one. Arranger and Trash Goblin are both free to claim right now, and based on their Steam review scores (92% and 88% respectively), neither one is a filler pick.
The offer runs from Thursday, May 7 through Thursday, May 14 at 8am PT / 11am ET. Claim them before the deadline and they are yours permanently.
What Arranger actually does differently
Arranger is the kind of puzzle game that sounds simple on paper and then quietly takes over your evening. You play as Jemma, navigating a top-down world that looks and feels a lot like classic Zelda. The twist is that traditional movement does not exist here. Instead, you slide entire rows and columns of the map, shifting Jemma and everything around her simultaneously.
Reaching the edge of a row loops that tile back around to the opposite side, which opens up a steady stream of positional tricks the game builds on throughout. Attacking an enemy means pushing your sword ahead of you into their tile, which means you need to engineer enough open space to line up the hit. What starts as a clean, readable system keeps expanding in ways that feel earned rather than forced.
The art direction is a genuine highlight. Every new screen functions almost like a small reward for solving the last one.
Trash Goblin is the low-pressure counterpart
Where Arranger asks you to think carefully, Trash Goblin from developer Spilt Milk Studios asks almost nothing of you at all, and that is entirely the point. The game revolves around digging up buried curios, cleaning and restoring them, and selling them to an eccentric lineup of fantasy customers.
Spilt Milk has been upfront about the design philosophy: no fail states, no pressure, no single correct way to play. If a customer has to wait for a finished item, they simply come back later. There is a gentle daily limit on activity, but nothing punishes you for taking your time.
The loop involves carving away dirt with specific tools to uncover items, scrubbing them clean, and then deciding whether to sell them individually or combine several pieces into something new that better fits a buyer's request. Shop upgrades, new display cases, and decorations let you build the space out over time. The main story wraps up around the 20-hour mark, but randomized customers keep arriving indefinitely for anyone who wants to keep going.
Both games are free to claim on the Epic Games Store until May 14 at 8am PT. You do not need to download them immediately, just add them to your account before the deadline.
Two games worth your time this week
The key here is that neither of these games would feel out of place in a paid indie spotlight. Arranger launched to strong word-of-mouth from players who enjoy puzzle games with mechanical depth, and Trash Goblin has built a quiet following among fans of low-stakes shopkeeping sims. Getting both in the same week is a better-than-average EGS drop.
For players who want more context before diving in, our game reviews cover a wide range of indie titles worth checking out. And if Arranger's puzzle mechanics have you curious about similar games, our gaming guides are a solid place to find more recommendations across the genre.
Head to the Epic Games Store and add both to your library before May 14. After that, the next weekly giveaway takes over and these two disappear from the free rotation for good.
