Carcassonne (WP)

Classic game for the WP

Carcassonne is back, this time for the WP! It's a turn based game, which involves players laying landscape tiles down to create roads, cities, fields, etc., while placing their players on them to secure points. Only one person can lay claim to any one item (road, city, field, etc.), but with a limited number of players to place, strategy is key. It works quite well on the WP, with no glitches or problems to speak of. This version has also included a MP mode, allowing 6 players to play online. It's still turn based, with one person playing then waiting for the others to boot it up and take their turn before they can progress, which can make games very slow to complete. A fun, relaxing game, that you can now take with you on the go.

Unfortunately, this game has been removed from the WP store, and is now unavailable. Hopefully you got it while you could!

  • Mass Effect: Infiltrator is a well made, great looking WP game set in the ME universe.

The controls can take some getting used to, but are quite fluid once you do. There are all of the...

  • As the first game I ever played on a WP, I admit I have a soft spot for this game. It's not exciting or action packed, but it's a simple puzzler that will keep challenging you as you progress through the levels. The best part? It's free. You're presented with a grid of different color flowers, and a row of flowers at the top which you can play one at a time onto said...

  • Another Game Room tie-in, the classic arcade game Centipede is on the WP! For those unfamiliar with it, you try to destroy the centipede that winds its way down in between mushrooms from the top of the screen, with shots hitting it anywhere but its head splitting it into two. Spiders, scorpions and other bugs will occasionally appear, forcing you to think and move...

  • Xbox has released a new version of the Voice Studio game/app, this time for the Xbox One. It's basically a way for them to collect data to (hopefully) improve speech recognition. It has 8 achievements, worth a total of 50 Gamerscore. It consists of them giving you words/phrases to say, which you then repeat back to the console via Kinect. That's it. For anyone...

  • Big Buck Hunter Pro Adventure is a fairly straightforward hunting game, with you moving through different fixed locations and trying to shoot 3 bucks or bulls in each, while not shooting does. Mixed in are mini-games, which have you shooting jugs, duck hunting, cow pies, etc. Headshots and heart shots will kill in one shot, but therein lies the problem. Unfortunately, the game...
