We’ve been under the waves with Subnautica, we’ve taken in galactic shooting with R-Type and we’ve had the chance to visit some of the most glorious lands with the Assassin’s Creed franchise. Now though we’re ready to immerse ourselves in the snow covered wonderland of 0 Degrees.
Available to purchase and download right now on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, as well as PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch, 0 Degrees hits console thanks to the eastasiasoft team as they push out the Nerd Games/Kiddo developed ice wonder.
Priced at £4.19 on Xbox, 0 Degrees is a puzzler, but one that will not just enable you the chance to kick back and chill, but one that will deliver the chills in the process as you work your way through icefields, across the most frosted of peaks and through the darkest of caves.Â
It’s the white stuff that is at the fore of this puzzling adventure as you try to help a pixel-arted climber traverse these lands. With each single screen providing a testing challenge in which movement from entry point to exit is the ultimate goal, 0 Degrees certainly looks to tick some boxes. Throw in warp points, hidden secrets and more, and even for the low price 0 Degrees looks to offer up more than just standard obstacle negotiation.
There are 40 levels present in 0 Degrees, but there’s also a timer attached to each, and we all know what that means. Yep, 0 Degrees is rich for speedrunning.
Our full review of 0 Degrees on Xbox will be along in the days ahead. If you’re sold on the wonderfully wintery world though, just pop along to a digital store of your choice – the Xbox Store being ours. You’ll find the game on PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch too.
Game Description:
A snow-covered wonderland of platforming action awaits in 0 Degrees, a chill puzzle experience for players of any age or skill level! Take control of a bundled-up pixel art climber as they make their way across icefields, up frosted peaks, through dark caves and over treacherous pitfalls! Help them survive mysterious hazards and overcome brain-teasing obstacles that span 40 unique levels. The objective is simple, to navigate single-screen challenges from entry to exit, then warp to the next level of escalating complexity. Locate and unlock warp points by activating switches, opening doors and finding special crystals. You’ll even be able to form ice blocks to help you negotiate dangerous gaps or reach high ledges. Stack them on top of one another, knock them over or toss them on top of spikes and switches. And if you get in a tight spot or plummet off a cliff, no worries! You can restart at the beginning of any level you’ve reached, allowing you to try again or go for better times.
