The light-hearted atmosphere, with its amusing characters and bumpy music, makes this game an instant classic. It’s easy to pick up and go to work on, but it takes some strategy and planning to advance and excel. Doing so can earn you Achievements to add to your Gamerscore -- and can potentially get you a spot on the Leaderboard. Unfortunately, unlike most other XBLA games, Outpost Kiloki X does not offer any multiplayer. But if you’re into tycoon games, and you’re used to some quick thinking, then this game is for you. But even if you’re not, the breadth of the game is not overwhelming and should welcome even newcomers to this genre. For a mere 800 Microsoft Points (roughly $10), this game is worth the virtual pennies. Fortunately for all of us, Microsoft offers demos for all their Live Arcade games, so you can even “try before you buy”. |
