Game Review: Unwording (Xbox Series X)
Unwording is all about perspective. Not just within its puzzles, but within its story too.

Doing an immense job of making you feel ‘ever so festive’ by asking you to pay far too much for trash in the name of Christmas, Games Advent Calendar 2024 comes from developer Mindscape.
Inspired by 80’s slasher horror films and utilising the festive season (the Silent Night, Deadly Night vibes are strong), Christmas Massacre is a violent and crusty retro low-poly effort from Puppet Combo.
Rightfully lauded as one of the finest ‘point and click’ adventure games ever made, Revolution Software’s Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars has been enhanced in almost every area in this ‘Reforged’ edition.
Would you like to know more about H.P. Lovecraft without having to do all that bothersome reading? Would you like to experience one of his famous stories from a visual and audio standpoint? Would you like hidden details that deliver even more facts about the famous horror writer? If the answer to all of this is yes, then you’re in luck, Dagon: Complete Edition has all of this, and a bit more.
Developed by Ocellus Studio and published by Microids, The Smurfs: Dreams changes up the style of the more recent releases to take on the form of a top-down 3D platformer.
Sometimes the simplest ideas are the best and CROSSBOW: Bloodnight is a very simple game. Giving the player a high-powered crossbow, putting you in a circular arena, and throwing waves of enemies at you. The goal? Survive as long as you can. It’s as straight-forward as that.
Fabledom looks to attract a casual audience, without compromising (much) on the core mechanics of the city building gameplay system. It promises a laidback experience, one that still has depth, but also uses a fantasy setting. All of which is delivered upon in charming and addictive fashion.
