Pit People
Top 10 Best Xbox One Games of Q1 2018
Pit People first arrived as an early access title over a year ago, but it wasn’t until last month that the full version finally launched. And it was well worth the wait – absolutely overflowing with the kind of content and charm that has become synonymous with developer The Behemoth.
Battles take place on a hexagonal grid, where two armies face off against one another with different units, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. It’s nothing too revolutionary on a gameplay level, but the learning curve is straightforward, and the tone helps keep the pace fresh in the early stages while you’re getting to grips with combat. Soon, you’ll be dispatching soldiers with ease, allowing you more time to revel in the writing, which veers wildly from clever wordplay to low brow potty humor on a whim. It all blends seamlessly somehow, and each chapter unveils another unique take on a familiar genre.
