Little Kitty, Big City (XS)
I had been very interested in this game, intending on getting it on Steam, but then I found out that it was going to be a day one on XGP game, so day one I downloaded it and played it. Short experience, quick 1,000 gamerscore, but well worth the time. Chill experience, decent dialogue, but the game does take a bit of learning of how the game expects you to do certain things, but that only really comes in towards the end or when working on straggler achievements. Very few technical issues with the game, map definitely could use some work, and some issues with traversal, but all very minor issues... and this was all at launch, I can only imagine the game will get even better.

A Castle Full of Cats (PC)
I've been using Playtracker's backlog to roll me some puzzle games, so there will be a lot of puzzle PC games showing up on here I expect. This is one in a series of cat based hidden object games developed by a small indie team with a passion for cats. I have no clue if there is any form of order to be played or if the games relate to each other, but you've got a castle and each room has so many cats and undead/ghost cats to find, along with other things to look for/interact with to unlock other rooms to continue the game. Overall a real good hidden object experience, a step above the basic hidden object games even with its basic design.

Wordle 3 (PC)
3rd entry in the Wordle series of games. More of the exact same gameplay, no new introductions or mechanics, just different words. I suspect the entire series is this way, not really worth your time.

A Building Full of Cats (PC)
Oh look, another cat game. I have to imagine, given the smaller scope of this game that this is the first in the series of these cat games. Overall pretty good, but very basic and doesn't employ much, if any, of the exploration/unlocking of the Castle game. Still a decent game, but not as good as the Castle game. I'll give it a soft pass though, because it's short and isn't nearly as good as the other game.

FIND ALL 2: Middle Ages (PC)
I actually really like the concept of the mechanics of this hidden object game. You start out with 3 types of objects you are looking for, as you find all of an object, the game gives you a new object. (i.e. find birds, find keys, find letters, etc). So rather than multiple levels, you've got your one level that you spend a lot of time in, really taking in the environment. The game takes it a step further by sort of interlocking all of the levels together, so as you finish the first level, a gate opens and you can slide the screen over to a new area that is essentially the next level. Additionally, as you find all of the objects in a specific area, the game lets you know there are no more hidden objects in that area by coloring in that area, so at the end the entire level if fully colored. All of the mechanics in this game work really well together and make for a great hidden object experience.
