This small indie game on Game Pass is starting to get a lot of talk and for good reason, its just plain fun. The concept is simple. You play a character whose job is to survive as long as possible. You do so by collecting weapons and power ups and letting them do the fighting for you. You don't have to press any buttons or do any complicated combination of button presses. You simply move around as more and more enemies surround you and try to survive.
It seems pretty straight forward at first. But as time goes on and the more you play it, the game starts to reveal more and more, and this is when you realize you're playing something special. You unlock more characters overtime. You discover that weapons and abilities can combine for some nasty results against the swarm of enemies. And you unlock many secrets I won't spoil. Overall, this game is a surprise. Especially, since you have a lot of similar games out there with the same concept. But this one is easily the best version of it.
I highly recommend playing this gem, if you haven't already. And if you did, liked it, but thought you saw everything the game had to offer, trust me, you didn't. I'm not sure yet if it is the GOTY. There is still the God of War, Beyonetta 3, and I'm currently playing through Horizon: FW, which I'm really enjoying a lot, just to name a few. But one thing is for sure, if it doesn't make the top of my list this year, it will certainly be on it.
Great game.
Oh, and the game's clear shout out to Castlevania gives it bonus points all around.
