Easy Gamerscore: 71 quick completions from this week's Xbox sale

I was hoping to check my price tracker games but the dm still hasn’t come through

TOEM is a fantastic, chill, hidden gem and I highly recommend everyone pick it up

Nothing for me but I did buy some games last sale

A lot of titles but still not a lot to like:

Guns, Gore, and Cannoli 2 would be my pick, it’s clever and funny and dispensed with the handful of annoyingly difficult achievements from the original. Even people who suck at these types of games (I call them Contra-likes in my headcannon) will be able to complete all of it, even if they’ll probably need a few attempts vs some bosses.

Runner up: Tacoma, I remember liking exploring the abandoned space station in this game but the details of the story are gone from my brain, which probably means this is “popcorn” level entertainment. Entertaining but your memories will probably be “that was fun” rather than “these moments are seared into my brain forevermore”.

So it's a crap week then. 🙁

My vote for best game is Agatha Knife with its hilarious black humor.

I'll be picking up Toem and probably Shmups Collection.

Deliver Us Mars is on sale again and it also has easy achie and at the same time it's a very good game.

Xbox has been trying to sell me Mafia trilogy @ $9 for like 2 months...considering grabbing that one finally and I'll go ahead and try one of these Puppet Combo games, too ig
Really hope Graveyard Keeper gets another sale before Halloween

I wish you'd add a gamerscore column to the sales page

Actually some decent games on this list. Here are the ones I think are worth a play:
The Pedestrian: Fun short puzzle game which I would recommend at that price.
Inside: Always recommend it especially at its current price. I feel like the less you know about this one going in, the better.
Toem: Played it while in GamePass a few months back. Real relaxing game where you solve simple quests in each area in order to advance to the next.
Lake: Probably my most controversial pick but I quite enjoyed this one. Real chill game where you play a mail carrier in small Oregon town.
Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion: Overhead Zelda style game with some humor that is pretty short. Enjoyed my time with it.

Timmy Love said:And Agatha Knife: Hilarious black humor adventure game where you get to establish the Carnivorism religion.

Allgorhythm said:Thanks for the reminder. That is one I completed and enjoyed as well. MechaNika, the follow up, was good too although not currently on sale.

Timmy Love said:The two games go on sale, individually, quite a bit. Strangely, they never seem to go on sale at the same time.

Jay Delonge 182 said:I wish they'd add a rating sort column to the sales page.

HenchmanC said:These are both great ideas, seconded. Usually I sort by price and get the cheapest easy gamerscore games but I’ll spend a liiiiittle more for those 4 and 5k games

Allgorhythm said:I don’t think I enjoyed this quite as much as you but it was a solid story. The only caveat is the number of missable achievements means you really need to look at achievement solutions throughout the game to make sure you don’t miss any, kind of disappointing for one of the few adventure games simple enough to be completed without a guide.

Also I never did figure out how you were supposed to know the solution to the

without looking it up…

TymanTheLong said:I played without a guide after reading through the achievement list. If you’re systematic—pick up everything & try to use all items in every scenario—you don’t need to figure out the solution. No matter how many obscure the puzzle, the game will reveal the outcome on its own.

Allgorhythm said:I guess that’d work. It’d be somewhat less of a short completion though. I felt like most stuff was immediately obvious and I definitely did some things out of the suggest d order (even if they worked fine) but there was one or two puzzles I just thought made no sense at all. Which is why I suppose I only play very easy Adventure games😂
