In conclusion, Lost Words: Beyond the Page is a vastly different example of an adventure platformer. It can be played on both a superficial or a deeper meaning level and has a design aesthetic to marvel at. Although not the most complicated or difficult game to complete it will stay...
In closing, it feels good to have baseball back on Xbox again, because the core gameplay of MLB The Show 21 remains excellent. You’ll have a blast learning and mastering the mechanics, and once you get the hang of it, everything just clicks. Outside of the gameplay itself, the game...
Zombie Army 4 is a game I never gave a chance before Game Pass, and it really is a perfect game for the service. The base campaign is long and the potential to get you to purchase the season pass DLC means it should help the developers earn quite a...
As an adult, the silliness and humour had me smiling throughout, but if you’ve got kids, while they may not fully understand some of the references here, they will have an absolute blast going from level to level. Be it ruining someones special day, persecuting a weatherman, setting fire to...
In this crazy Game Pass driven world, while It Takes Two may not be available on the service (at release anyway), it is well worth paying full price for. The novel approach of allowing a friend to download a ‘friend’s pass’ meaning that only one of you has to actually...

For those of us who like a lot of ‘game’ in their video games, they may also be left wanting. This is more an experience, albeit and incredibly interactive one, with little hand holding or objectives given. In terms of gameplay though, there’s not much here. If you don’t think...
Curse of the Dead Gods is a solid title for fans of rogue-likes and dungeon crawlers. An excellent progression system is tied to a damned fun combat system. Retailing for only $20 US it is easy to recommend, and as it is a Focus Home Interactive game I wouldn’t be...
Mundaun
This is an incredibly unique title and in my opinion, well worth the effort that has clearly been poured into it. Considering how highly detailed the original sketches must have been this really is a work of art in video game form, that needs to be seen to be believed. Mundaun...
Adios
Adios touches on the passing of time and the effects that events have on all things afterwards in subtle and clever ways. This is not your standard ‘Walking Simulator’ and instead, the primary focus, thanks to well written and well acted script is to make you ask yourself some deep...
