Indiana Jones and the Great Circle – boats in Sukhothai header

I hope you’ve all been making good progress on your Advent calendars, whether it’s a simple chocolately one – perhaps grabbed on clearance now that we’re over a quarter of the way through it – a bougie savoury farm shop one, or one that’s filled with treats for your cat or dog.

Christmas has come early (or is coming early) for Xbox gamers and Indiana Jones fans, with MachineGames doing a great job in retranslating the whole archeological action adventure as a first person game instead of a third person adventure.

But first, let’s check in on the news.

We brought the reviews this week, with a last mad rush for the start of December. Indiana Jones might not have topped this list, but it’s definitely a game I recommend checking out – it’ll pair very well with daily training in Fitness Boxing 3!

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle – XSX|S, PC – 8/10 (Video Review)

Outside of the reviews, I checked out the new update for Warhammer 40,000: Darktide – Grim Protocols, with a new mission and a new escalating Havoc challenge mode. In stark contrast, there was also some time spent with the pun-laden museum management of Two Point Museum!
