Disciples: Domination is a great fantasy experience. I love the genre and the franchise, and despite my small complaints, Disciples: Domination is a great fantasy experience. I love the story and the different protagonists. Moreover, the overworld is interesting, and the relationship between the factions was fascinating. However, it has a repetitive edge that cannot be ignored. Moreover, the slightly un-Disciples moments could annoy hardcore fans. Despite this, it is good fun, and I recommend getting a copy from the Xbox store!
Pure Pool Pro is a technical masterpiece in this genre. The moment you load up the game, you’ll see the strengths of the experience from the get-go. Exceptional presentation right across the board, deep focus on the mechanics of ball and cue movement makes for the most realistic pool simulation on the market today. I’d love to see a little more love go into the online competitive side of the game, but I’m sure the close-knit team will take all feedback into account going forward. I can easily recommend this game at its extremely reasonable cost of £19.99. If you purchase the game in the first couple of weeks, you’ll get a nice 20% discount. You can purchase the game on Steam HERE or Playstation 5 HERE. We, as a team, are looking forward to the game arriving on Xbox Series X|S in the near future. For our Xbox readers, keep your eyes peeled for this one, as Pure Pool Pro has racked up and sunk this entry with style.
With plenty of claustrophobic feeling of dread and constant threat at nearly every turn, Reanimal handles the tense pace beautifully with a mixture of graphics, lighting and sound. Jump scares are used to great effect, really setting the feel and tone by starting off small, being used just enough to not make you expect them but still keeping you on your proverbial toes constantly expecting something to jump and try to eat, crush or stomp you. The style and look of the various enemies you meet as you progress is truly unsettling at times and the attention to detail in the dark worn down and decaying world around you is amazing, from grass and trees swaying in the breeze, to mud puddles splattering underfoot as you run through them. Add all this to a tight, chilling and genuinely unsettling at times narration and it delivers something fresh and special. I was feeling shades of an even more twisted version of reality than even the town of Silent Hill delivers with how the story feels somewhat psychological aswell as deeply emotional. It makes you think, it makes you wonder and it makes you go ‘Eeep!’ many times. And at the low-end entry point of only £34.99, it would be kind of crazy not to consider adding this title to your collection with the amount of entertainment on offer. The game is by no means the longest of its type, but it never feels like you’ve been short changed as the content, while it lasts, delivers an engrossing and powerful experience. Especially when enjoyed with a friend. Whether you’re a fan of Tarsier Studios‘ previous games or even just a fan of dark, gothic style survival horror adventure games with plenty of atmosphere as a whole, then this game comes highly recommended from this fan of the genre. Try it, you shan’t be disappointed.
While I’ve been a casual fan of the MK series over the years (MK2 on Super NES was my jam), Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection leaves me disappointed. While I did enjoy revisiting the few I played back in the day or finally get my hands on entries I never played such as the arcade games, the brutal A.I., even on Extra Easy, can make this incredibly frustrating. Newcomers trying to get their footing in will find nothing but frustration especially when some games actually read player input and react instantly. Unless you’re a die-hard MK fans who needs everything in their collection, I recommend you avoid yourself some frustrations or wait for a sale.
Carmageddon: Rogue Shift is hands down my first personal choice for GOTY contender. It’s big dumb fun; pedal to metal, bash everything is sight, run over zombies; it’s quite addictive. This shows that games shouldn’t be overly complicated to be enjoyable. Despite the annoyances mentioned above such as rubberbanding and few quirks that comes with being underpowered, it doesn’t deter the overall experience and you’ll always tell yourself one more race. If you’re looking for a way to unwhine after a hard day, Carmageddon: Rogue Shift is a great option. Highly recommended.
Despite the nostalgia rose tinted glasses I played while playing all the games in this collection, part of my brain was constantly reminding me of how old these games are and how far gaming has come. Obviously, we wouldn’t have the platforming masterpieces of today, without the originals such as these and the ingenious developers and programmers who performed almost miracle work with the limited abilities of 1980s hardware and software. £6.99 is the asking price for a good amount of content and an amazing, but very outdated, collection of classic games. Highly recommended if you grew up with titles such as these and retro systems, however your kids might not understand the attraction. Now if you excuse me, I’m off to die another hundred times on the first screen of Wanted: Monty Mole. For fun, no less!
Thank Goodness You’re Here! is one of the most delightfully strange games to hit Xbox in years. It’s bold, silly, and refreshingly original — a comedic adventure that knows exactly what it wants to be and executes it with confidence. If you’re in the mood for something light‑hearted, unpredictable, and unmistakably British, this is a must‑play. Even though it’s a short game, Thank Goodness You’re Here! leaves a strong impression. It proves you don’t need a huge world or deep systems to make something memorable. Just a clear idea, good humour, and a place full of personality. Barnsworth is packed with funny moments, odd characters, and surprises that pop up when you least expect them. The jokes land quickly, the pacing never drags, and the whole experience feels confident in what it wants to be. It’s proudly British, proudly silly, and all the better for it. If you want a break from long, serious games and fancy something that’ll make you smile, laugh, and shake your head in the best way, this is a great pick on Xbox. Purchase a copy on Xbox Series X|S.
Disco Simulator is an enjoyable management sim with a surprisingly addictive gameplay loop. It isn’t the most polished simulator game out there, but it does what it needs to and does it well. I’ve always wondered what it would be like to run a nightclub, and this gives a small insight into overseeing the day-to-day operations. There is the potential for several long sessions here if you want it, but it may come across as repetitive for some. You can put your party shoes on and purchase a copy of the game on Xbox Series X|S HERE. For a very reasonable £12.49, it’s much cheaper than a real night out on the town.
Yakuza 0 Director’s Cut on Xbox Series X is the best way to experience one of the greatest titles in the series. With more depth integrated into the story and the addition of the Red Light Raid mode, it is a far more polished product with even more to enjoy compared to the first outing. If you’ve played the game before, then it is a perfect opportunity to rediscover this masterpiece. For those who are new, I highly recommend you just dive straight in with the Director’s Cut; you won’t regret it. You can purchase a copy of the game for Xbox Series X|S HERE.
If you want a casual, affordable, and enjoyable indie title that is relatively mindless, Ink & Paper: DoodleCut should be in your library. It is as good alone as it is with another player. Furthermore, there is enough friendly competition that it won’t cause “Monopoly-esque” family fallouts. Accordingly, it is good, and you should grab a copy from the Xbox store!
Taxi Chaos 2 isn’t perfect by any means; there are still many areas in which the game could improve. The game, however, is fast, frantic and fun with a vibrant and fun city to drive around and explore. Those who are into quick, short bursts of adrenaline-fuelled gameplay will enjoy the score-chasing element of the game. Whilst I’d love to have seen some multiplayer integration, I had fun passing the controller back and forth with my eight-year-old son, taking the game in turns. If you’re looking for a game that doesn’t take itself too seriously but provides short bursts of adrenaline-filled fun, then I would recommend giving this one your time. You can purchase a copy of the game for Xbox Series X|S HERE.
Buffet Boss isn’t a memorable game. However, I liked it and enjoyed wasting a few hours. I appreciated the gentle learning curve and how easy it was for younger gamers. Moreover, it was vivid, safe, and wonderfully mindless. Accordingly, it’s good, and you should grab a copy from the Xbox store!
Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club is an unapologetically wholesome experience that isn’t particularly challenging. It provides a brief burst of nostalgia for parents and some enjoyment for kids. It’s the perfect game if you’re just introducing them into the gaming scene or you want to build their confidence in using a little brainpower, figuring out some simple case-solving quests.
Robobeat is a classic roguelike experience; play and surive as long as you can and then start everything over anew when you die. It’s a fast-paced game matching the game’s upbeat soundtrack. There’s a decent, albeit minimal, weapon variety. But despite the game’s minor flaws, if you’re not a fan of the genre, this game won’t convert you. If you enjoy having a sense of progression when you play video games, this is the opposite. Aside from that, it’s a fun action game. If you’re a fan of the genre, you’ll have a blast with Robobeat.
If you are a Game Pass subscriber, you should give this a go. I know it is over a year old, but the action is fun, and the story is interesting and touching. Furthermore, I like the combination of genres and the stunning visuals. Accordingly, I love it, and I recommend grabbing a copy from the Xbox store!
Satisfactory is a superb port from PC to Console. Quite often, games within this genre don’t always perform well on the Xbox family of machines. This has to be the most polished version of a PC original I’ve clapped eyes on. If you’re a fan of the grind of materials and resources with a view to crafting and building giant, sprawling, efficient factories, then you’ll love it.
Overall, Wings of Endless is a fun, vast, non-linear action RPG/Metroidvania game that’ll keep you busy for some time. The combat is, for the most part, enjoyable and simplistic, areas are fun to navigate and explore. If you can adjust to the counterintuitive controls and learn from your mistakes during boss battles, you’ll have a decent time with Wings of Endless.
Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters is a great addition to the RPG genre. While the story feels a bit throwaway and won’t be as impactful as more recent Final Fantasy games or 2025 masterpiece Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, the gameplay is solid and unique. There’s a bit to dive into and the disc system allows for a lot of experimenting. Combat is easy to pick up but hard to master. If you’re looking for a new, unique, RPG to sink your teeth into, Neptunia: Sisters VS Sisters is a great choice.
Psycho Dream is a fun, challenging 2D action platformer; it’s one of those Japan only game that never had the chance outside of the land of the Rising Sun and it’s fun seeing it getting a new lease on life. It has all the classic features; straight forward, challenging boss fights, enjoyable level design and interesting power ups. Once you get adapted to the “heavy” movements and weapon short range, you’ll find a nice hidden gem. If you’re a fan of 2D action games, Psycho Dream is a no-brainer.
In recap, Slimeboo is easy to play straight from the getgo. The gameplay is nothing new or gonna reinvent the platforming genre, however for a simple game that requires often counting ‘mississippi’ in your head to time your jumps, I find that if you just need a game to kill an hour or so between big, epic gaming sagas then this couple be perfect for you.
