If you're subscribed to Xbox Game Pass, don't sleep on the charming Creatures of Ava.
While a lot of the hubbub around day-one Xbox Game Pass games centers around first-party titles , Microsoft’s subscription service has been surprisingly consistent when it comes to snagging quality indie and AA games for the service the day they release. These are often some of the best, most creative games on the entire service, whether that’s because they experiment with gameplay mechanics or just tell a really good story.
Inverge Studios calls Creatures of Ava a “creature-saver” game. In practice, that means it’s a third-person action-adventure game in which players tame the creatures of an alien planet, use them and a magical staff to solve environmental puzzles, and then collect them to save them from a dying planet. Players control Vic, who’s part of an expedition to the planet of Ava to save its species from a planetwide infection called The Withering.
Early on, Vic finds a staff that allows her to purify Withering that corrupted plants and animals. This is used to open up new pathways to explore and is part of the closest thing Creatures of Ava has to combat. While withered enemies will attack Vic, players must keep dodging as they wait for the staff to purify them. The closest thing I can compare this process to is capturing ghosts in Luigi’s Mansion.
