Awakening the Charge
Awakening the Charge – out now on Xbox

A colourful world of robots is in crisis, and it’s up to one small but mighty automaton to save the day in Awakening the Charge, a vibrant puzzle platformer with a jolt of action.

Developed by Alexandr Bondarenko and published by Desert Water Games, this electrifying adventure is available now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (as part of a bundle) for the very reasonable price of £4.19 (currently discounted to just £3.35 for launch).

Charge into Action, Puzzles, and Bosses

Awakening the Charge cleverly blends thoughtful puzzle-solving with exciting platforming and action elements, all centred around your little robot’s core “charge” ability – it’s key to everything, in fact.

You’ll use this versatile charge to interact with and activate various mechanisms scattered throughout the levels, opening new paths and cracking environmental puzzles.

But it’s not just for brain-teasers; your charge is also your primary weapon against the hostile robots you’ll encounter. As you progress, you can collect microcircuits to enhance your robot’s capabilities, preparing you for tougher challenges and, ultimately, the big boss confrontations that culminate each area, requiring all your skills and upgrades to succeed.

Prepare to immerse yourself in this vibrant world of robots, solving interesting puzzles as you try to unravel the mystery behind the widespread system failure.

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore. Gamertag is neil363, feel free to add me to your list.
