    1H1D #208: Lightyear Frontier

    It goes to infinity, but not beyond. For this episode, the Xbox Game Pass "Surprise Me" button has chosen the open-world farming game developed by the small Swedish studio called FRAME BREAK. What's unique about this resource harvesting title is that the player is doing the typical exploring and crafting from inside a mech. There's also a narrative component centered on a mystery that needs solving and players have the option of experiencing the whole thing online with up to three friends. Did we mention that it is still in active development and features are being added with each patch? Join Tom and Chris as they discuss their first hour with this game preview and see if they'll be following its development with great interest! What do you think? Let us know!

    1H1D #207: Dungeons of Hinterberg

    Vacation's all she ever wanted! If you work a desk job, perhaps fighting monsters could be considered a vacation from your day-to-day life. The folks over at Microbird Studios take this premise quite literally with their 3rd-Person Action RPG centered around a young clerk looking to escape the monotony of her daily life by venturing to an Alpine town where magic and monsters are real. Tom and Chris have been tasked with joining this intrepid adventure-seeker on her vacation and reporting back on the resulting first hour of gameplay. Will the combination of exploring, puzzle-solving, and action honestly feel like a vacation from their own daily grinds? Will the town of Hinterberg and its occupants prove captivating enough to entice them to extend their stays? It's time to discuss and decide! What do you think? Let us know!

    1H1D #206: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

    All we want for Christmas is a whip... and a fedora. Proving they aren't a couple of scrooges, Tom and Chris have given the Xbox Game Pass "Surprise Me" button some time off for the holiday! In keeping with that same holiday spirit, they have elected to give each other the gift of playing the latest first-person action-adventure title from MachineGames. Featuring everyone's favorite archeologist and set between the second and third films, it certainly sounds like something they will both enjoy. That said, Indy's recent film outings have been divisive and his video-game track record is certainly spotty as well. Let's discuss if MachineGames fully leveraged all that prior experience crafting Nazi-shooters and harnessed the highlights of this famous film franchise to make something worthy of your precious holiday hours.

    Wake up! Do androids need to wear make-up? Is it accurate to call a visual novel a game? What if it incorporates dice rolls and character advancement? The Xbox Game Pass "Surprise Me" button asks our hosts to ponder these questions with its selection for this episode. Crafted by the London-based one-person development studio Jump Over the Age and published by Fellow Traveller, this title is listed as a role-playing game. As usual, Tom and Chris have an hour to decide if that's an accurate assessment. Over the course of that hour, they must also determine if the experience is fun and worthy of at least an hour of your own time. Will theirs be an hour well spent, or will they encourage you to keep sleeping on this highly praised title? Join them as they break down their time spent trapped in android bodies that are likewise breaking down! What do you think? Let us know!

    1H1D #204: House Flipper

    More lucrative than flipping burgers! The Xbox Game Pass "Surprise Me" button has decided to wind things down with this renovation simulation developed by Empyrean and published by Frozen District and PlayWay. What this means in practice is that our hosts have been tasked with cleaning and fixing homes. Don't worry, they won't be breaking a sweat or pulling any muscles in this exercise, because all the mandated hard labor is purely virtual. We've seen a number of jobs masquerading as games in our many episodes, so Tom and Chris are curious if this one will fall into that unfortunate category or prove itself satisfying and (more importantly) fun to play. Join our intrepid duo as they roll up their sleeves and get to virtual work. Who knows, maybe they'll even learn some valuable life skills in the process. Only one way to find out! What do you think?

    1H1D #203: Resident Evil 3 for Xbox

    You can call this one a remake! Back in 1999, Capcom released their third Biohazard title. This episode is about the remake of that survival horror game, which was likewise developed by Capcom. With over twenty years and countless franchise entries separating the two, it is clear the actual development teams were comprised of different individuals. This leaves long-time fans to wonder: which team did it best? Updating Resident Evil for the modern action-favoring audience is sure to disappoint some purists, but will the graphical overhaul and tighter story prove a worthwhile trade? Join Tom and Chris as they take another shot at this famous franchise and learn if they really want to sink their teeth into this one. What do you think? Let us know!

    1H1D #202: Wreckfest

    Putting the car in carnage! On this episode, Tom and Chris are off to the races. But it seems dishonest to call this a racing game, as racing is only one facet of the gameplay of this title developed by Bugbear Entertainment. As the name suggests, wrecking the opposition plays a major role in every game mode, and that is sure to set this game apart from your average racer. The developers call this the spiritual successor to their FlatOut series and inquiring minds surely want to know if it lives up to that pedigree. The "Surprise Me" button has spoken and our hosts have been dispatched to discover the answer. Join them as they white-knuckle their way to the finish line, dodging opponents aiming to turn their rides into scrap, and learn if you should join them after the checkered flag is waved.

    Are you ready for some football... management? With two hundred episodes behind us, the Xbox Game Pass "Surprise Me" button has now selected the sports management simulator developed by Sports Interactive. Believe it or not, it is actually the twenty-first installment in this franchise! Since they are arriving quite late to this game series, how will our hosts receive it? Will they lament missing out on twenty prior chances to manage a football team? Will there be Ted Lasso style hijinks as they show up expecting the gridiron and find a soccer field instead? Join Tom and Chris as they pull out their clipboards and get down to brass tacks to decide whether or not this game makes the cut! What do you think? Let us know!
