    In its current state I can’t recommend Adam’s Venture: Origins to anyone on Xbox One. If you have a decent gaming machine, go and buy it on Steam. It’s cheaper and a much better experience even on modest devices.

    Pang Adventures is a challenging blast of nostalgia from the past that brings enough new mechanics to give the Pang series a fresh feel without taking it too far from the spirit of the original concept.

    It feels more like Soda Drinker Pro is made for annoying YouTubers to yell at and drive a few extra sales. It is sad to think that the developer did not have enough faith in Vivian Clark to allow it to shine on its own without being trapped in a gimmick.

    1979 Revolution: Black Friday is a great game that gives an in-depth look at one of the many revolutions that occurred in Iran. Looking at the technical aspect of the game, it does have a few flaws. But since the main objective of the game is to go into more detail regarding what happened and how things were during this revolution, I must be honest and say that it serves its purpose well.

    Skyling is a port of a mobile isometric maze game that is shoved onto Xbox One with no thought or effort put in. The controls are often unresponsive and usually cause you to die.

    All I can say is I am incredibly pleased with Blues and Bullets: Shaking The Hive. It delivers on almost all fronts. It still suffers from some technical difficulties that can at times be jarring, but the storytelling and character development is so brilliant and well done that it almost outweighs the one con it has.

    Gear Gauntlet reminds me of a mixture between Super Meat Boy, Marble Madness and Tetris. The developers knew exactly what kind of game they wanted to deliver and knocked it out of the park.

    A tidy little indie blessing, with the currently popular pixel style, a variety of attack styles and a sound track that will have you wind-milling in no time.

    Moonradish Inc. has wonderfully delivered on the promise of producing a fast and frantic arena multiplayer game that’s great to play with friends. While a lack of online multiplayer is indeed disappointing—as well as the slower pace of the Hexout game modes combined with a limited amount of content—Wand Wars is still an extremely fun and challenging game that’s perfect to play with a group of four.

    Overall, Dark Souls III is a truly remarkable experience that I would consider a masterpiece if all of its issues were addressed.

    With the game being only $20, it is more than worth it and I highly recommend checking it out. Had this been priced at $60 I could not recommend it but for this price it represents tremendous value and presentation.

    It’s a recommended upgrade even though it’s a little rough around the edges.

    The blending of word game and RPG mechanics has created a game that reeled me in hook, line, and sinker. The gameplay loop of collecting gems, failing, upgrading, and progressing had me returning to this game night after night. The smooth controls and visuals made my addiction pleasurable. I cannot recommend Letter Quest: Grimm’s Journey enough. It is an ambassador for the turn-based, word-based, role-playing game. Even if it is the only game in the genre.

    Atari Vault is definitely a good investment that I'm sure will please many including older gamers that want to feel the nostalgia of playing some of these classic games that defined a generation back in the day.

    Any fan of the physics-based puzzle genre will appreciate the care and thoughtfulness put into each and every puzzle in 101 Ways To Die. Even though the final world felt like a wrap-up, it plays like the last bite of a cheeseburger–incredible. I truly consider this game to be a highlight of the current generation.

    Active Soccer 2 DX tries to bring back the fun experience of a football video game like the Sensible Soccer games rather than the realistic aspects like FIFA and PES but, unfortunately, it has some issues at the moment, such as the clumsy menus, the glitched player animations, and the buggy football rules system that seems to have a random situation.

    Overall I think The Purring Quest is a great 2D adventure platformer that you will pick up for a few hours and just have fun with. While it doesn't have much of a story, what is there does make you feel the emotions the game is showing and you will still crack a smile at the end.

    République is an amazing episodic stealth adventure game that really pulls you into the deep story it offers. It allows you the freedom to make choices in the game that directly affect the outcome and your relations with the other characters. The graphics are absolutely amazing and help draw you into an already immersive story.

    All things considered, between a game, live-action show and novel, Quantum Break is one of the most complete and versatile gaming endeavors in recent memory and a phenomenal single-player experience.

    Overall, Shred It! is a pretty fun and addictive game you should play if you see it drop down to $5 or less and just want a game to play for a few minutes while another game downloads in the background. While it doesn't fully translate well on Xbox One, it mixes fun and intense gameplay into a beautiful world.

    The writing itself isn’t exceptional but it moves the story along, and the combat itself is a highlight that just about anyone could have fun with.

    There are minor issues that make the game feel as if it is trying to check too many boxes instead of showcasing what it does best. The overall plot and the character abilities are definite high points, the platforming mechanics are tight and control well, and the puzzles are good even though they lack variety. The action piece does not fit and hurts the full potential of this generally solid game.

    Although it can look short, compared to other exploration games, Samorost 3 complements that with the stunning, detailed and almost photorealistic art style of the various landscape scenarios, which are great just by themselves, but adding the various sound effects and music to them creates a great point-and-click exploration game filled with some interesting puzzles.

    In conclusion, if you are a casual racer who just wants to have fun and enjoy doing races without too much frustration, Dirt Rally is not for you. It is daunting for even hardcore racers. However, if you are seeking a real rally simulation experience and have strong willpower to overcome all the challenges that this game throws at you, it’s the best game on the market compared to titles like Sébastien Loeb Rally Evo and WRC 5.

    While initially ‘Slain!’ seems like it should be a great product with its gorgeous pixel-art, it only takes a small time for everything to fall apart thanks to countless bugs, repetition and God-awful combat. ‘Slain!’ needs to be improved in almost every aspect before I can even think of recommending it to anyone, metal-fan or not.

    Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek in an incredibly enjoyable game with a few minor problems that can easily be overlooked.

    A fun and memorable experience. I definitely recommend picking it up if you are in the mood for some more post-apocalyptic exploration.

    The game is HARD. For a team of five people though, I am really impressed.
