It's easy to imagine how Super Lucky's Tale would be the highlight of a younger kid's weekend, but it has little to offer anyone looking for an enjoyably challenging 3D platformer.
Since we are being encouraged to stay indoors, why not enjoy some relaxing games? Here are a few suggestions from the Xbox Game Pass.
Following his debut in Oculus Rift launch game Lucky’s Tale, adorable fox hero Lucky gave traditional platforming action a try in Super Lucky’s Tale for the Xbox One and PC. New Super Lucky’s Tale for the Nintendo Switch is an enhanced version of Super Lucky’s Tale, with new and remixed levels, story cinematics, and a fully-rotatable 3D camera. It also adds frequent framerate drops and a ridiculous amount of loading.
I personally didn't enjoy how quickly levels were locked behind collecting the coins from the past levels. Sure this feature has become a thing but honestly its a turn off. Mario did it and imo its one of the changes they made that was a bad choice. They got it really right in the first new super mario bros and even galaxy. Don't gate keep. Reward!
After receiving favourable feedback on Steam last September when the game released on Steam, Playful might be bringing their celebrated 3D Platformer Super Lucky's Tale to Switch this year.
Celebrated? Lmao barely anybody paid attention when this game came out, but now that there’s a possibility this game is getting ported it’s suddenly a “celebrated” title
While Minecraft exists and demonstrates that Microsoft is interested in having some of its games on more platforms, so far no other game published by them has received such treatment. So having Super Lucky's Tale being ported is rather surprising.
The game was panned by critics and didn't sell a lick on XB1. In fact, the VR, console, and PC version all received poor reviews. I never understood why this subpar platformer continued to be pushed. It was never Celebrated. This PC release with favourable feedback is a 59 Metacritic, yes, a 59.

6/10? I guess Lucky aint so, lucky.... >_>
Watch as this game doesn't become a joke like Knack did.
Yeah, this game looked very bland and uninspiring... I would have rather ms done a different platformer in their wheelhouse...
If quantum break, recore, and sunset overdrive sold poorly, I don't see this title being that successful
GameSpot is kind of a stickler reviewer though. It could quite possibly do better with other review outlets (though I suppose it *is* possible that it can also do worse).
That being said, they are trying something different from what people often give them grief for (Halo, Forza, Gears). Even if the game ends up being treated as unanimously mediocre, at least it's a matter of branching out a little bit. I never took much interest in this game at all, but, again, it's something different.
Man I'm so jealous of this game, oh well I guess I got to settle for Ghost of Tsushima, TLOU2, and Spiderman... Sucks to be a playstation gamer :(
