A cosmic puzzle of balance and beauty, best enjoyed at a slower pace. When Abbey Games first released Reus  back in 2013, it carved out a niche in the god-game genre by offering something gentler and more puzzle-like than the usual fare of omnipotent destruction. Instead of smiting mortals or waging wars, you guided colossal giants to nurture ecosystems and civilizations. Now, over a decade later, Reus 2  arrives on Xbox, and it feels both like a natural evolution and a bold

When two of gaming’s most eccentric auteurs - Goichi Suda (better known as Suda51) and Hidetaka “Swery” Suehiro announce a collaboration, expectations are bound to be high. Both are known for creating cult classics that revel in the strange, the surreal, and the downright bizarre. With Hotel Barcelona , their long-awaited joint project, the pair deliver exactly what fans might expect: a roguelite drenched in grindhouse horror aesthetics, brimming with dark humour, and unapolo

As someone who spends a lot of time digging into indie titles, I’m always on the lookout for games that feel personal, imaginative, and a little offbeat. SOPA: Tale of the Stolen Potato fits that description perfectly. It’s the kind of game that doesn’t try to compete with sprawling AAA blockbusters, but instead carves out its own identity through charm, humour, and cultural storytelling. SOPA: Tale of the Stolen Potato is about Miho, a young boy living with his grandmother.

When Blood of Mehran  arrived on Xbox, it promised something bold: an action-adventure steeped in the rarely explored world of ancient Mesopotamia. At first glance, it feels like a refreshing departure from the usual medieval castles or futuristic dystopias that dominate the genre. The game places you in the role of Mehran, a betrayed soldier whose quest for vengeance after the brutal murder of his family drives the entire narrative. From the opening cutscene, it’s clear that

In a gaming landscape saturated with gritty realism and sprawling open worlds, Wander Stars  dares to be something different and something heartfelt, stylish, and unabashedly nostalgic. Developed by Paper Castle Games and published by Fellow Traveller, this turn-based RPG is a love letter to classic anime, blending vibrant visuals, episodic storytelling, and inventive combat into a galactic adventure that feels both fresh and familiar. From the moment you boot it up, Wander S

If you’ve ever wanted to solve mysteries with Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and the gang, Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club  delivers exactly that and wrapped in a warm, pastel-coloured bow. Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club  on Xbox is a gentle, nostalgia-laced adventure that invites players into the whimsical world of Charles M. Schulz’s Peanuts gang, reimagined through the lens of light detective work and cosy exploration. Developed by Cradle Games and published by GameMill Entertain

In a genre often dominated by grim warriors and stoic spellcasters, Folly of the Wizards  bursts onto the Xbox scene with a wand in one hand and a banana peel in the other. Developed by UpFox Labs and published by Numskull Games, this 2D roguelike dungeon crawler is a chaotic celebration of magical incompetence. Released in September 2025 for Xbox Series X/S, it trades precision for pandemonium, inviting players to embrace the absurdity of spellcasting gone wrong. It’s a game

Stepping into the world of Viewfinder is like opening a portal to a place where art, photography, and science fiction collide in a mind-bending swirl of colour, perspective tricks, and heart-tinged mystery. After a celebrated debut on PlayStation and PC in 2023, Sad Owl Studios’ BAFTA-winning puzzle game finally came to Xbox Series XS in 2025. Its premise is mesmerizing in its simplicity: you reshape reality itself by placing photographs, drawings, and screenshots into the th
