Greak: Memories of Azur is a side scrolling single-player game with hand-drawn animations.

The ability to switch between three different characters helps to keep you on your toes

Greak: Memories of Azur is a game you'll want to return to time and time again. The ability to switch between three different characters helps to keep you on your toes, as you'll need to use each one at specific times in the game.

The main selling point is the hand-drawn animation

Greak is the name of the main character. He belongs to a magical race called the Courines, which are currently under the attack of an enemy invasion from a faction called the Urlags. This battle has been going on for a long time, and the Courines are starting to flee their own lands. Greak's goal is to reunite with his brother (Raydel) and his sister (Adara) and then escape the lands of Azur by Building an Airship piece by piece.

As you venture through the world of the game you'll meet many interesting characters

As you venture through the world of the game you'll meet many interesting characters. There are also puzzles to solve - like how to get to certain areas on the map... and at times it's not overly obvious, nor simple to achieve.

As wonderfully entertaining as it is, I wasn't really sure why this wasn't released as an Xbox One game that you could also play on the Xbox X/S. If you buy this now, for your Xbox One, you'll have to rebuy the Xbox X/S version... and it doesn't really look or play like a game for the new generation of consoles.
