I ended up picking out Tunic as my Game of the Year, when at first it only seemed like a mild Zelda-like. There’s certainly other trashy games out there I’ve enjoyed, such as Neoverse, a deck-building Roguelike (no longer on there anymore), Rune Factory, Battletoads.

Someday I’ll gather a 4p crowd to play some of the couch games, which are relatively few on Game Pass but generally pretty decent. I think a lot of people would be up for Halo splitscreen.

Slay the Spire. What a banger. And I didn't know I would even like card games before I checked it out.

Tetris Effect: Connected

Tetris? On Steam? At that price?? And then I tried it on GamePass and I was hooked. Love the song too.

Oh man so many. The biggest is probably Deep Rock Galactic tho. That game has ended up being one of my favorite games I've ever played and I don't think I'd ever have played it without game pass. Rock and stone to the bone!

I played Tunic 4 times, almost in a row, it was that good. Just a fantastic game. Also found it on gamepas.

Hi-Fi rush was another gem I didn't expect to find through GP.

Spiritfarer, which I actually bought so I could keep playing it.

Game Pass has paid off for me - I was going to buy MS Flight Simulator when it came out, but knew I'd play it for a while but the novelty would wear off so didn't want to spend $70 (AUD) - looked at the game available on GP and thought "yeah, I'll play that, and that, and that etc". I played but wouldn't have bought Deathloop Forza Horizon Redfall MS Flight Sim and a few I can't remember. Game Pass is really good value.
