If you're an Xbox One owner and dying for a new platformer to play, look no further than Super Lucky's Tale. If the game performs well enough, it's possible Microsoft could have a new mascot on its hands.

Considering Microsoft's focus on Racing and Shooter genres for its exclusive lineup, Super Lucky's Tale feels like an exciting and different platforming experience that will take players back to 6th and 7th generation of consoles again, and even with some camera and gameplay issues, Super Luck's Tale is still a welcomed addition to the Microsoft's lineup.

Super Lucky's Tale is a frustration-free experience that holds your attention for as long as it lasts. The Controls are damn near perfect, the Visuals are pretty to look at and the soundtrack is uplifting. This is a game you don't want to miss out on no matter your age, but the youngest among us will get the most fun out of it. If only it had just a bit more content to make for a longer lifespan…

Shallow and brief, Super Lucky's Tale is a forgettable adventure, although it has some potential but nothing in it shines.

The lack of challenge and originality hurt this game, though it isn't a bad game and it maybe more suitable for younger players.

An enjoyable game with a decent amount of content for a budget game, but a lack of polish and character bring the experience down.

Super Lucky's Tale looks and sounds pleasant, and its charming world and characters will appeal to younger audiences. However, despite getting the basics right, some gameplay and overall design concerns lead the game down a few wrong foxholes.

Overall, Super Lucky's Tale is definitely not something that platforming fanatics are going to want to pick up. This game is more suited to children or people who are just starting to getting into platformers as everything feels like it could have been so much more.

3D platformers don't get much more generic than Super Lucky's Tale.

‎Super Lucky's Tale is a very fun game for both young and old. There are a total of four worlds to play in that you spend between two and three hours each. This also depends very much on how fanatically you are hunting coins and four-leaf clovers.‎

Lucky has a chance to become the new mascot of the Microsoft platform, so I hope that the series will not end only on the first full-fledged part.

In the end, it’s difficult to see the point of Super Lucky’s Tale from either a commercial or critical point of view. If you (or your children) haven’t played the games that Super Lucky’s Tale bowerbirds, there’s no compelling reason to not be playing those instead (beyond, perhaps, their availability on Xbox and PC). If you have, there’s hardly enough here to justify your time, money, or emotional integrity. At best, it’s a sugary, adequate if frequently flawed distraction. At worst, it’s a morose void belching an existential crisis, poorly concealing the frantic absurdity of all existence beneath its irreverent cartoon veneer.

Super Lucky’s Tale might not reach the heights of Super Mario Odyssey, but it is still a wonderful experience. With Microsoft lacking exclusives, Super Lucky’s Tale is a good place to begin a new era of Xbox-only games.

Super Lucky's Tale is designed for a very particular audience and for a very particular purpose, and manages to pull that off with flair - but it'll alienate anyone outside of that.

Microsoft's previous attempts at a platforming title have failed many times before. This time they have something with potential in Super Lucky's Tale, but they might need to use some of those gold clovers to balance out the bad luck it currently has.

For the price and the fact that this is the only brand new title designed with the Xbox One X in mind releasing with the console, Super Lucky's Tale is worth your time. It would also provide plenty of fun for all ages on the Xbox One family of consoles and Windows 10 PC's.

Amongst the like of Super Mario Odyssey, Yooka-Laylee, Sonic Mania, Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy and even Cuphead, Super Lucky's Tale trails far behind. If you only own an Xbox One and are desperate for some platforming, then you'll have a decent time with Super Lucky's Tale

There's definitely some potential in Super Lucky's Tale but the content here is limited and locked behind a forced search for hidden secrets
