"CloverPit is one of my favorite games of the year so far, and it just arrived on Xbox without prior notice. As revealed during Thursday's Xbox partner showcase, Panik Arcade's nightmarish take on the ills of capitalism and gambling is out now on Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. You can play CloverPit via the cloud or the Xbox PC app too, as it's on Game Pass Ultimate and Premium as well as PC Game Pass."
"On the surface, the game is pretty simple. You're locked in a rusty room that looks like something out of Silent Hill 2. There are only two ways out: through the door or into a pit. You'll plummet into the latter if you fail to pay off your rapidly-increasing debt. You'll be using a slot machine to try to earn enough money to keep your run going."
"Figuring out a great combination of items and swapping others in as needed is what the game is really all about. There's nothing quite like going from getting a few coins on a single spin to millions in no time at all. Panik Arcade nailed the one-more-run feeling that's core to a good roguelite. It's not much of a surprise that the studio and publisher Future Friends Games have sold more than a million copies of the game on Steam in just a few months"
CloverPit launched on Xbox One and Series X/S via cloud and the Xbox PC app, and is available on Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and PC Game Pass. The game places the player in a rusty room with two exits: a door or a pit, with failure to repay rapidly increasing debt sending players into the pit. Players use a slot machine and over 150 items, totems, and perks to bend outcomes and build synergies, aiming to escalate payouts and prolong runs. The game emphasizes experimental item combinations and a powerful one-more-run loop, and an Unholy Fusion expansion will let players combine charms in wild, experimental ways.
