    Typoman: Revised has to be one of the biggest surprises of 2017 so far.

    Overall, I am Bread is a hilarious adventure that might not appeal to everyone, but it is still fun anyways. I had a blast with it and for $13, it offers plenty of bizarre scenarios to warrant a purchase. Just remember I am Bread is the equivalent of a gag gift than a meaningful purchase on Xbox One.

    Candleman is a special indie game that has a lot of heart. Its story is surprisingly dark, no pun intended, but it seeks to offer an insightful life lesson, much like Spotlightor hoped to achieve with its games. Through solid platforming sections with a touching journey, it is easily worth peoples’ time, who may learn just how precious that is once they play this title.

    I just wish I could’ve played the game in co-op properly by overcoming the limitations of the hardware.

    It’s fun and pushes you to think in creative ways.

    A very solid game mechanically, visually and technically. I love that the developers took a very different approach to the tower defense genre and I think it paid off. I hope in the next iteration there can be a little more balancing to how the pace of a match works. Overall, it is definitely a good choice for players who like the action-oriented tower defense variant like Dungeon Defenders and Deathtrap.

    The game offers branching paths much like Quantum Break, but the ending doesn’t change much. It’s quite disappointing given what I would say is an overall great story.

    Crypt of the NecroDancer is a fantastic game and I’m ecstatic that it’s finally on Xbox One. While it might not be the best-looking adventure out there, it’s still one of the most unique games that I recommend you play. The rhythm-based gameplay pushes you and while it can be quite difficult in the beginning, it’s hard not to enjoy it even then.

    I really liked Industry Giant 2, I just think it is lacking in replayability.

    Anyone that finished Bridge Constructor and thought they wanted more to do should pick up this game. If you are new to the series, the question becomes if you want a puzzle game, or a physics-based car jumping game. I really like both entries in the series, but it really comes down to what the gamer is looking for.

    While the combat is simplistic, overall the gameplay is solid with responsive, smooth controls. You can find its story almost anywhere in any form of media, but it’s also the type of story that never gets old.

    Resident Evil 7 is not only one of the greatest and scariest modern survival horror games in recent memory, but a fantastic return to form for one of Capcom’s greatest series. With photorealistic, repulsively-disgusting environments, interesting and unique characters combined with impactful and visceral combat, Resident Evil 7 is the most fun I’ve had with a Capcom title since the original Dead Rising.

    The combat isn’t stellar, the levels themselves leave a lot to be desired, and the story is honestly forgettable. It’s a shame that what makes the RWBY animated series so great could not be translated into its first proper video game. Still, the campaign offers around 5-6 hours of playtime and it’s a competent, and even at times fun, hack and slash game that I recommend you play with a group of friends.

    Toby: The Secret Mine is a gorgeous, fun and oddly challenging puzzle platformer that has some really large difficulty spikes at times. The playtime might also be too short given its price point. If you’re in the market for a game along the lines of Limbo, go for it.

    A decent experience. It’s a mobile game that was ported to console and that much is very apparent.

    The story is great but it’s not as rich as other games.

    The story has its moments but the puzzles, horror elements and glitches are so severe that it prevented me from enjoying the game.

    Rise and Shine is a fun experience, but its difficulty and short run time detract from the overall package.

    Merely just two steps above the abundance of other Slender-likes on Steam. It’s still terrifying though.

    Psychological horror games tend to thrive on how much it messes you up, and the only thing this game messed up is my ability to keep my lunch down thanks to my tendency for motion sickness. Sylvio is a good game, but not for the reasons you expect.

    It’s quite a comprehensive cricket simulator and if you love the sport, this is a no-brainer.

    Drop Alive. It is incredibly easy to recommend a game with gorgeous visuals, impeccable sound, fantastic gameplay, and the low price of free.

    The graphics look crisper even though they aren’t a substantial upgrade over the original. The controls have seen the biggest improvement and it plays even better on Xbox One. While I wish the gameplay was more complex, the title is still a solid entry in the real-time strategy genre.

    Shantae: Half-Genie Hero is a fantastic game and provides several hours of fun and exciting entertainment. I highly recommend that you pick it up and save the day as Shantae.

    Despite its confusing nature, it’s a lot of fun and the story is definitely one of the better ones I’ve come across recently. The game’s art style is gorgeous and that was one of the reasons I was captivated by it in the first place. Just be sure you’re one with patience because some of the puzzles become a chore to get through.

    While Crypt of the Serpent King is not the most polished game, it offers almost the same level of enjoyment as games like Rogue Legacy or Toy Odyssey. If you love roguelike titles, be sure to check this one out despite its archaic save strategy and odd texture issues.

    Stardew Valley is incredibly fun, with a myriad of ways to create a unique experience.

    Moto Racer 4 is one of those few motorcycle racing games that actually works well on Xbox One. Although severe technical issues plagued the game at launch, efforts have been made to improve it.

    Sword Coast Legends is an appealing game but it has too many technical problems which aren’t game-breaking, but can be quite aggravating.

    Episodes 1 and 2 of The Walking Dead: A New Frontier have my expectations incredibly high for the rest of the series. With strong new characters, important storylines, and beautiful artwork; I think Telltale may have another award-winner on their hands.
