After successful stints on mobile platforms and then PlayStation 4, Starlit Adventures has finally made its way to Xbox One as a free-to-play offering. Nintendo Switch can also welcome its arrival, albeit in a different form and at a premium cost. Would you like to know more about the journey ahead?

Developed by Rockhead Games, Starlit Adventures is a vertically scrolling adventure in which you’ll voyage to the Starlit Universe; a place where charming characters and an enchanting experience are to be found. Step into the boots of Bo, a quirky and charismatic fellow who – alongside his much quirkier sidekick Kikki – aims to save the Starlits by strategically recovering all of the stars taken by someone known as Nuru. Prepare to discover magical worlds and incredible creatures, as well as special gear and items that grant different power-ups and abilities that will surely help you progress through each level. There’s even a co-op mode to add a bit of strategic play in your next session with your friends. 

The Starlit universe is undoubtedly inspired by Japanese classics such as Bomberman, Dig Dug, Mr. Driller, and Boulder Dash. But while Starlit Adventures clearly invokes a sense of nostalgia as a result, it’s unquestionably contemporary and creates an environment that seems perfect for players of any age to enjoy. Especially given that Starlit Adventures features simple, straight-forward controls which are optimised for young players. 

For those of you planning on playing Starlit Adventures on Xbox One, it’s a free-to-play title with optional unlockable content and cosmetics, so just go ahead and download it from the Xbox Store. On Nintendo Switch however, you’ll need to pay £19.99 via the Nintendo eShop to own Starlit Adventures: Golden Stars version, which features all-new in-game content and cosmetic items. The Xbox Store does have a few bits of DLC if you’re looking for ways to spend some money. The Special Pack will shower you with a chest of 3200 tokens and a cool dragon costume for £24.99, while a Golden Unicorn Suit and a Golden Dino Suit can be bought for £3.79 each.

Let us know which version you’ll be spending your cash on and keep an eye out for our upcoming review of Starlit Adventures on Xbox One.

Been gaming casually since the SNES as a youngster but found my true passion for games on the Playstation 1 (the forbidden word ooo). My addiction grew to its pinnacle with the purchase of an Xbox 360 & Xbox Live Service. A recovering GS hunter that will still play literally any game.
