While there isn’t a particularly huge game in this batch of titles, there’s some great variety here. The Case of the Golden Idol is a game I’ve heard nothing but praise for over the last few months, and it’s been a minute since I played a narrative-driven puzzle game, so I’ll definitely be checking that out. I’m also curious about Magical Delicacy, as the tone and subject matter seem fun.
As a reminder, several other games were recently added to Xbox Game Pass, includingThe Callisto Protocol, Still Wakes the Deep, andboth Octopath Traveler titles.
