FORCED

You might think this looks like Gauntlet, but it's more of a puzzle game than an action RPG or hack-n-slash. The levels are the same every time and require you come up with a strategy beforehand to beat them. If you get yourself into a bad situation, rather than relying on wits or reflexes to get you out, you will simply die and have to restart the level. Fundamentally it's a puzzle game where you will experiment with trial and error and die many times in frustrating ways before you beat each level. Also I found the unlockable skills very lackluster, and saw little to no changes in my character compared to when I first started. But I got it for like $3, which was a good price, so I'm giving it 4 stars.

Its fun i do enjoy it and id flip the 2 into a 5 but ... Im having a issue with that if i die it displays the box with the chains holding it in the middle of the screen will not go away! Im begging that it be fixed so i can enjoy what seems to be a game well made but till then its rather disorienting to play.

Part of a tribe of slaves for a mythical master, you must fight through arenas full of puzzles, enemies and some traps in order to give your tribe freedom. You have a spirit ball guiding you around and is used to solve puzzles and activate power ups in the arenas. Such as healing, haste or even one which zaps nearby enemies for a bit. Using the spirit ball effectively takes time but is essential to surviving and beating the game. There are four weapon classes you can swap between before each arena. All with their own abilities. You unlock more abilities as you obtain gems from beating arenas and replaying them to earn more through challenges. I found most arenas easy to moderate to beat. There are a few which can be rather frustrating to get through. The bosses can be quite challenging too. Forced does have co op but you won't find anyone online. Most of the achievements are easy but prepare to be frustrated if you want them all. I would say in it's entirety, Forced is an alright game.

I was forced to play this game😥

No discernable way to sign multiple accounts in on the same XBox. I'd be willing to hear the argument that each user should own the game, but there isn't even a prompt that let's you know who owns it. Was hoping for a Champions-like game, but if each player can't have their own character on their own account, then bust. Considering asking for my money back.
