  • Sounds like another success, just like Grounded. Future looks bright for Xbox!
  • Well deserved. This was a great game and more people need to play it.
  • I gave it a go. Not my thing, but I only had an hour or so on it.
  • It would be better if there were a map or more hints on where to go, but thats all I found lacking. At the same time, a map will kill the immersion that you are a monster going around not knowing the layout. I give it a 8/10 because of being stuck a few times due to lack of direction. The ending was great! Its only about 4-6 hours long depending on how hung up you get on the 'puzzles'.
  • I'm one of them. Fun game
  • Such a good game, really enjoy it, hope a part 2
  • It was awesome to see it come to game pass. I was gonna buy it anyway. Game Pass is really great.
