Epic Games Store - Free Games Reminder Extension

=== Features ===
- Clicking the extension displays the current free games available

=== How it works ===
This extension calls the official free games listing API from Epic Games Store at \"https://store-site-backend-static-ipv4.ak.epicgames.com/freeGamesPromotions\". It returns JSON data with current and future free games information such as the store URL, images and titles.
