Should you be looking for something a little different to the norm, then we'd suspect that the latest additions to the Game Pass service will suit. A couple of new Xbox and PC games pop up for play, and they are certainly dealing in the weird and the strange.Â
You may think that being imprisoned in the Oswald Asylum would already be a little bit strange, but the world of Fran Bow is more than that. Much more.
Releasing onto Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC, Witchcrafty is a captivating Metroidvania platformer that transports you to a mystical world.Â
We've had Sudoku, Akari, Slitherlink and Nurikabe. Now though the masters of the puzzle are back and this time they are bringing a proper oddity with them as Puzzle by Nikoli W Heyawake releases on Xbox.Â
If you like weird, you'll probably get on well with the creations of Cotton Games. The latest oddity to emerge from those studios is that of Dad's Monster House. It's a mad one.Â
From Squanch Games, High on Life will see you wielding an arsenal of talking guns (yes, talking guns), as you look to save humanity from an alien cartel that wants to use humanity as a drug. Sounds weird, yeah!?
The work that has gone into the Weird West world and the characters that frequent it is impressive. Yes the grind is real, but it is a rewarding experience when it all comes together.
