Xbox Games With Gold
There’s nothing particularly punch about Xbox’s Games With Gold lineup in December, but it does offer diversity in its content, which has become a welcome staple in 2019.
Indeed, there’s something for everyone in the lineup, whether you’re looking for single-player or multiplayer experience, and there’s similar diversity in the genre’s on offer, too.
Insane Robots, for example, is a turn-based strategy rogue-like, while Jurassic World Evolution is a park-management simulation game; Toy Story 3 is a family-friendly platforming experience, while Castlevania: Lords of the Shadow is a punishing 3D action-RPG for more mature gamers.
Our picks of the punch are Jurassic World Evolution, and Castlevania: Lords of the Shadow. Whether you’re a fan of the Jurassic Park franchise or not you’ll find plenty to like. Think Zoo Tycoon with dinos.
Lords of the Shadow, meanwhile, marked the series’ transition from 2D side-scroller to 3D action game, which was divisive at the time but actually did turn out a success.
