In the Xbox Game Pass catalogue, productions regularly appear that can easily be overlooked among the major releases. This time, it's worth paying attention to three titles that offer something more than just a "filler" in the library. Each of them represents a different style of gameplay, but they all have a strong atmosphere and good reviews from players. If you're looking for something fresh for a few evenings, these games might pleasantly surprise you.
Still Wakes the Deep
A narrative horror set on an oil rig in the North Sea. The game focuses on atmosphere, tension, and an intense experience rather than combat. It is a short but very story-rich adventure that can keep you on edge from beginning to end.
Lies of P
A dark reinterpretation of the story of Pinocchio in a soulslike format. Dynamic battles, a demanding combat system, and excellent enemy design make this one of the strongest action games available on the service. If you enjoy challenges in the style of Dark Souls, you will feel right at home here.
Cocoon
A minimalist, logical adventure from the creator of Limbo and Inside. The game is based on a unique idea of manipulating worlds within a world, which translates into very creative puzzles. No dialogue, no surplus hints – pure, thought-out gameplay.
Game Pass is not just about big AAA premieres. "Still Wakes the Deep" delivers an intense atmosphere, "Lies of P" offers challenging action, and "Cocoon" delights with its concept and minimalism. Three different styles, three strong suggestions for the coming evenings.
