Pair of Gameloft Games Free on Windows Phone

Pair of Gameloft Games Free on Windows Phone

Earthworm Jim and Assassin's Creed free of charge, but for how long? [UPDATE: DEAD]

Written by litepink on 13 February 13 at 00:47

Update: As suspected the games have reverted back to their original price.

We're not sure why but a pair of Gameloft games are available for free right now on both Windows Phone 7 and 8.

Earthworm Jim (WP) $4.99/£3.99 FREE
Assassin's Creed (WP) $4.99/£3.99 FREE

I had a bit of trouble getting the free pricing to show up myself, but when I turned off my phone and started it up again, both games showed as free upon searching the marketplace. You can also use the links above to purchase the game from the web if you are having issues with your phone's marketplace showing the correct price.

As alluded to in our strapline, we don't know how long the free games will be available so get them while you can.

Special thanks to all the community members who sent this in!

Got Earthworm Jim, not going to bother with AC. But to confirm - I don't have a Nokia and I got Earthworm Jim for free via the Australia marketplace.

I got both with my LG phone, so its not some Nokia exclusives.

I havent rebooted my phone for weeks, but they showed up as free right away. I just browsed the whole store, and there is only these 2 free, but not any "random" sale on anything or price drops.

These are maybe bad games, but they are free...Grab Assasins Creed, and who knows.. maybe it gets a late patch. you can "buy" the free ones you dont want, cancel install..and if you regret it when it costs money..you can redownload it for free as its already purchased.

Thanks for the good news! :-)

Picked up Earthworm Jim after realizing that it still asks you to buy a game you've already purchased. Nice on getting the word out fast!

Downloaded them both, but I probably won't waste my time with Assassin's Creed. It's terrible. However, I'm looking forward to getting through Earthworm Jim!

Picked up Earthworm since I already have AC. Don't know when I'll get around to it though. I've read that the controls are almost just as bad if not worse than AC's.

Edit: Not getting the free price to show up. I grabbed it from online at free but it wouldn't send to my phone. Clicked the link in the email they sent to me but it's not showing up as free. angry

definitely worth "buying" even if you just delete them right away. that way you have the license if you ever change your mind and want to play them later. i already have both, pretty sure i got them when they were deals of the week.

Already had Assassin's Creed, it was worth the $4.99 price tag so no one should pass up FREE, I held off on Earthworm Jim so I'm happy I held off for this long :)
