Xbox Game Pass

I quite enjoyed the game and even ended up with the soundtrack. I find myself playing these types of games more and more thanks to gamepass

Its not a hidden gem but Hades is probably the game i played the most in the last 12 months if you havent tried it. Unpacking is a handy few hours of a game too.

Have people here tried Dead Cells

ah right, that was the best thing i found about hades, upgrading as you went to focus on a specific weapon and type of build you wanted through each run, can see why it won so many Game of the Year awards in fairness.

Yeah, I really enjoyed it too. Can't remember how I came across it, it might have been recommmended here?

The ori games are great. Halo if you want to mindlessly shoot aliens in the face for a bit?

Really enjoyed A Plague tale, also. Great there's a sequel!

The gardens between, Human fall flat, I am fish, Inside, The Pedestrian, Superliminal, Trek to Yomi, Twelve Minutes and Unravel are just some random gamepass games I picked up after watching the trailer and ended up loving without any big time or commitment needed. I find myself playing the likes of Halo and Assassins creed, Red Dead etc. less since there's just too much time involved and hardly bothering with any type of shooter stuff. The unique quirky indie games I seem to get the most out of these days

I have the Long dark downloaded but haven't gotten into it yet. Just about finished Trek to Yomi

Hadn't heard of the pedestrian at all, will definitely give it a look.

I definitely find those shorter 'quirkier' types of games more appealing these days. Don't have the time for the big epics anymore apart from the odd AAA game a year like Halo or Starfield next year probably.

Tunic. If you like Elden Ring it's got boss battles nearly the same, and the rest is nice exploring. Amazing manual integration too.

I played the first while on the EA Play trial - it was nothing special compared to previous years. More roleplaying and I almost need a third hand for some of the new 'off the ball run' moves.

It'll be in EA Play tomorrow (23 June), so will come to Game Pass the same day. A bit later this year than normal, maybe because of the PS+ deal or they planned on it being a normal World Cup year adnd the release would have tied in with a summer world cup.

I had to delete LMS for the sake of my spare time. I have a lot of it. It was taking up most of it. And for no good reason. Stupid addictive game.

That's the exact one I stopped after!

Never particularly liked samurai movies but enjoyed the unique and inventive 2D angles and fly on the wall type gameplay. Great game. Classic game pass game!

😂 It has its claws in me as well! Haha it's much better than LMS, tedious in some ways (especially tiling or painting) but it doesn't ask for hours of your time, perfect game to play with a Spotify playlist on.

Why are these games taking up my time? It is definitely time wasted, but I can't stop. I noticed the Garden Flipper screens on the tv in my office alright.

**** yea, Peppa Pig

Road 96 looks relatively interesting from that bunch

I really wish I never played house flipper, the game is such a waste of time but found myself putting hours into it

It's really really good.
